Are Panic Attack Symptoms Dangerous?
Friday
Dec 11, 2009
To most people, panic attack symptoms very much feel like “real” physical symptoms. For instance, it is very common for people to show up at the emergency room with what they believe to be a heart attack the first time they experience panic attack symptoms. It’s not that these people are being paranoid, until the tests have been done and a heart problem is ruled out, the doctors usually think it’s a heat attack as well.
In addition to the chest pain, common symptoms of panic attacks are rapid heart beat, dizziness, hyperventilation, stomach pain or nausea, vomiting, sweating, shaking, hot or cold flashes and difficulty breathing.
An one of these symptoms alone could be very scary. If you don’t know you’re having a panic attack, or if these are your first panic attack symptoms, you may very well think there is something seriously wrong with you, who wouldn’t.
If we have never had a panic attack before, or we don’t know much about them, it’s not the first thing that comes to mind when we start feeling really physically ill.
In fact, there were several times in the past where I thought I was experiencing a panic attack, when really I had food poisoning or a stomach flu that made me feel nauseous, dizzy, sweaty etc. I was so used to panic attacks giving me these really physical reactions that I didn’t recognize it when I was actually sick!
Although panic attack symptoms can, and often will, make you feel like you are dying, they are in general harmless, and you will find yourself feeling much better shortly after your attack stops. In the short term, panic attacks don’t have any serious effect on your health.
However, there has been some studies done recently that indicate that panic attacks can have an effect on your health, especially your heart in the long run. Panic attack symptoms puts the body under extreme stress and tension. Stress in general weakens the immune system, so it’s only to be expected that a situation where your body is experiencing extreme stress symptoms on a regular basis will eventually hurt your health.
There is no need to add to your anxiety by starting to worry about the long term effect of your panic attack symptoms; this will only make your situation worse. What is important is that you realize that you need to do something about your situation.
Start to focus on what might help you situation; if your everyday life is very stressful, take measures to change it. Seek help for your panic attacks, either from a doctor or a therapist or through a self-help system. Don’t obsess about your anxiety situation, but take it seriously enough to realize that you need to change your habits and maybe re-organize your life to get different results.
Your panic attack symptoms won’t kill you, but that doesn’t mean that everything is OK. When you are experiencing anxiety and panic attack, your body is no longer just trying to tell you something; it is screaming at you! Do an inventory of your situation and try to figure out what you can change to relive emotional and physical stress, and then make the changes. Knowing what the problem is only helps if you are not willing to do something about it. If you change what you are doing today, chances are you won’t experience panic attack symptoms in the future.

Stress Disorder
Panic attack symptoms that lasts for a while is one of the most distressing conditions a person can experience, panic attack symptoms can closely mimic those of a heart attack. Usually , most people who have one attack will have others, and when somebody has repeated attacks with no other apparent physical or emotional cause, or feels severe stress about having another attack, he is claimed to have panic disorder. A number of other emotional issues can have panic attack symptoms. Some of these diseases include post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), schizophrenia, and intoxication or withdrawal from specific drugs of abuse .
Anxiety Attacks
Anxiety attacks that take place while sleeping, also called nightly panic attacks, occur less often than do panic attacks during the daytime, but affect about 40%-70% of people who suffer from daytime panic attacks. Nightly panic attacks tends to have a tendency to cause sufferers to wake all of a sudden from sleep in a state of unexpected stress for no obvious reason and can have all the other evidence of a panic attack symptoms. The duration of nightly panic attack symptoms has a tendency to be less than 10 minutes, but it can take much longer to completely chill for those that experience them.
Panic Attacks
Panic attacks symptoms could be of a stress disorder. These attacks are a serious health problem in the U.S. At least 1.7% of adult Americans, or about 3,000,000 folks, will have panic attacks at some time in their lives, with the top age at which people have their first panic attack (onset) being 15 to 19 years. Another fact about panic is that this symptom is strikingly different from other sorts of anxiety; panic fits are so extraordinarily unexpected and regularly surprising, seem to be unprovoked, and are usually disabling.
True Story
Once somebody has had a for an example, while driving, shopping in a crowded store, or riding in an elevator, he or she may she may develop irrational fears, called phobias, about these scenarios and begin to elude them. At last , the pattern of avoidance and level of stress about another attack may reach the point where the mere concept of doing things that predated the first panic episode triggers future panic attacks, leading to the individual with panic disorder being not able to drive or even step out of the house. At this time, the person is said to have panic disorder with agoraphobia. Thus, there are 2 sorts of panic disorder : panic disorder with or without agoraphobia. Like other major illnesses, panic disorder can have a heavy effect on somebody’s everyday existance unless the individual receives effective treatment.

A Natural Cure For Panic Attacks
Thursday
Sep 17, 2009
I benefited from a natural cure for panic attacks, but it took me a long time to find it! It seemed to me that I was stuck with these horrible episodes and that I was going to find a way to live with them.
But I didn’t have to live with them. There are cures for this anxiety disorder and the one that worked for me was completely natural.
I had panic attacks for six years! I don’t know if that’s remarkable or not, but it seemed like a long time to me. And the whole time I was looking for a cure.
I found out that panic attacks are caused by the fear of a panic attack returning.
Here’s what goes on inside your body during a panic attack and, as far as I know, these symptoms have never hurt anyone.
A panic attack is your nervous system kicking into afterburner stage.
Your heart rate jumps, you start to sweat, your face turns red, you may feel dizzy and disassociated with others. You worry about what the others must think. That adds to your anxiety.
You may feel like hiding, disappearing, running, just getting out of where you are. I think that comes from associating running away from the panic attack.
And it all starts with a little cue of some sort, a tiny sliver of a thought, a peek into the idea of a panic attack. And you are scared of panic attacks! The fear of a panic attack is what sets it off!
It’s a sort of anxiety loop in which the idea of becoming anxious is the seed that suddenly sprouts into a panic attack. You feel stuck in the problem.
This “circle of anxious thoughts” keeps repeating the fear that you are losing control which just causes you to have more severe symptoms.
Eventually a panic attack dies down. Probably from exhaustion or maybe a distraction.
So it’s thinking that causes the symptoms! Therefore changing your thinking is the way out of symtoms!
You can’t simply decide to change your thinking, although it’s a great start. You need to actually change your thinking, and, once you’ve done that, the problem solved.
But how do you change your thinking? I personally discovered this thought process kind of randomly and it worked for me right there and then.
The problem with finding the solution that way is that, in my case, I had tha attacks for six years!
That’s no way to live.
So what you need is a little reprograming. There are simple techniques that will make it possible for you to think normally and NOT in the panic attack cycle of fear and escalation trap.
You are going to learn not to fear panic attacks and as soon as you don’t fear them, they are gone!
And learning not to fear panic attacks is the most natural cure you could ask for.
You can have your life back! And, when you get it, it will be one of the finest days of your life.

Symtoms of Anxiety and Panic Attacks
Saturday
Sep 12, 2009
If you suffer from…
* Palpitations
* a pounding heart, or an accelerated heart rate
* Sweating
* Trembling or shaking
* Shortness of breath
* A choking sensation
* Chest pain or discomfort
* Nausea or stomach cramps
* Derealization (a feeling of unreality)
* Fear of losing control or going crazy
* Fear of dying Numbness or a tingling sensation
* Chills or hot flashes
…then you’ve experienced firsthand some of the possible symptoms of a panic or anxiety attack. If you are reading this page because a loved one suffers from these symptoms and you are trying to understand or help, it’s hard to appreciate what they go through.
Just try to imagine what it feels like to experience one, if you can.
Here is a typical example:
Standing in a supermarket queue, it?s been a long wait but only one customer to go before you make it to the cashier. Wait, what was that sensation? An unpleasant feeling forms in your throat, your chest feels tighter, now a sudden shortness of breath, and what do you know?your heart skips a beat. ?Please, God, not here.?
A quick scan of the territory?is it threatening? Four unfriendly faces queue behind, one person in front. Pins and needles seem to prick you through your left arm, you feel slightly dizzy, and then the explosion of fear as you dread the worst. You are about to have a panic attack.
There is no doubt in your mind now that this is going to be a big one. Okay, focus: Remember what you have been taught, and it is time now to apply the coping techniques. Begin the deep breathing exercise your doctor recommended. In through the nose, out through the mouth.
Think relaxing thoughts, and again, while breathing in, think ?Relax,? and then breathe out. But it doesn?t seem to be having any positive effect; in fact, just concentrating on breathing is making you feel self-conscious and more uptight.
Okay, coping technique 2:
Gradual muscle relaxation. Tense both shoulders, hold for 10 seconds, then release. Try it again. No; still no difference. The anxiety is getting worse and the very fact that you are out of coping techniques worsens your panic. If only you were surrounded by your family, or a close friend were beside you so you could feel more confident in dealing with this situation.
Now, the adrenaline is really pumping through your system, your body is tingling with uncomfortable sensations, and now the dreaded feeling of losing complete control engulfs your emotions. No one around you has any idea of the sheer terror you are experiencing. For them, it?s just a regular day and another frustratingly slow queue in the supermarket.
You are out of options. Time for Plan C.
The most basic coping skill of all is ?fleeing.? Excuse yourself from the queue; you are slightly embarrassed as it is now that it is your turn to pay. The cashier is looking bewildered as you leave your shopping behind and stroll towards the door. There is no time for excuses?you need to be alone. You leave the supermarket and get into your car to ride it out alone. Could this be the big one? The one you fear will push you over the edge mentally and physically. Ten minutes later the panic subsides.
It?s 10:30 a.m. How are you going to make it through the rest of the day?
If you suffer from panic or anxiety attacks, the above scenerio probably sounds very familiar. It may have even induced feelings of anxiety and panic just reading it. The particular situations that trigger your panic and anxiety may differ; maybe the bodily sensations are a little different. Or maybe it happened to you for the first time on a plane, in the dentist chair, or even at home, while doing nothing in particular.
If you have ever had what has become known as a ?panic attack,? take comfort in the fact that you are by no means alone.
A panic attack always comes with the acute sense of impending doom. You feel you are either about to lose your mind or one of your vital bodily functions is about to cease functioning and you will end your days right there among the canned goods and frozen food.
You are by no means alone; you?re not even one in a million. In America, it is estimated that almost 5% of the population suffer from some form of anxiety disorder. For some, it may be the infrequent panic attacks that only crop up in particular situations-like when having to speak in front of others, while, for other people, it can be so frequent and recurring that it inhibits them from leaving their home. Frequent panic attacks often develop into what medical physicians refer to as an ?anxiety disorder.?
One of the first steps to regaining control of your life is getting helpful information. This site will give you that, and more.
The beginning of your recovery starts here. What you will learn is that there is a very good chance you are about to end the cycle of panic attacks in your life. You will learn not only to regain the carefree life you remember once having, but will also gain new confidence in living. Your answer to living free from ?panic? or ?anxiety attacks? is at hand.
This site demonstrates that the panic and anxiety that you have experienced will be the very key to your courage and success.
Begin the road to recovery by browsing through the site. While many of you may have read almost everything you can possibly read relating to panic and anxiety I assure you this site offers something very effective.
Did you know…?
The key difference between someone who is cured of panic attacks and those who are not is really very simple. The people who are cured no longer fear panic attacks. I?ll try to show you how to be one of these people as well.
What if I told you the trick to ending panic and anxiety attacks is to want to have one. That sounds strange, even contradictory, but let me explain.
The trick to panic attacks is wanting to have one-the wanting pushes it away. Can you have a panic attack in this very second? No!
You know the saying that “what you resist, persists.” Well that saying applies perfectly to fear. If you resist a situation out of fear, the fear around that issue will persist. How do you stop resisting?you move directly into it, into the path of the anxiety, and by doing so it cannot persist.
In essence what this means is that if you daily voluntarily seek to have a panic attack, you cannot have one. Try in this very moment to have a panic attack and I will guarantee you cannot. You may not realize it but you have always decided to panic. You make the choice by saying this is beyond my control.
Another way to appreciate this is to imagine having a panic attack as like standing on a cliff’s edge. The anxiety seemingly pushes you closer to falling over the edge.
To be rid of the fear you must metaphorically jump. You must jump off the cliff edge and into the anxiety and fear and all the things that you fear most.
How do you jump? You jump by wanting to have a panic attack. You go about your day asking for anxiety and panic attacks to appear.
Your real safety is the fact that a panic attack will never harm you. That is medical fact. You are safe, the sensations are wild but no harm will come to you. Your heart is racing but no harm will come to you. The jump becomes nothing more than a two foot drop! Perfectly safe.

How to Control The Signs And Symptoms Of Panic Attacks
Monday
Sep 7, 2009
For suffers of panic or anxiety attacks it can be a major issue. But it’s also possible a disorder doesn’t at all exist and one simply experiences a manageable touch of anxiety in social situations. This article’s focus will be upon social anxiety, my preferred term. We hope with that said you will find the information both interesting and reassuring.
Spot The Signs And Symptoms Of Panic Attacks
Someone at some stage in their lifes has suffered from a panic or anxiety attack. Although there is some people that will have stress and anxiety so much that they are not able to do anything at all. People who have panic attack on a regular basis can experience some symptoms such as trembling, dizziness, problems breathing, and pains in their stomach. There are lots of people that go to the emergency room because they think that they are having a heart attack. These symptoms can be scary but be rest assured these are definately not life threatening.
To help yourself in gaining control over your panic attacks you need to first recognize what the triggers are of the panic attacks. If you happen to do this then it will give you time to deal with them.
There are some relaxation methods that may help with staying focused and calm. It is believe that breathing exercises or yoga will assist you to feel more relaxed. When a panic attack starts you can react out of proportion and also out of reality. By practising breathing methods you should be able to remain calm and focus to help you stop.
Diet pills, coffee, tea, soda and other intake of caffeine needs to be avoided at all means. Panic attacks are triggered from the central nervous system and caffeine stimulates it.
You should exercise on a regular basis. By exercising it will release endorphins into the blood stream. Endorphins are hormones that help with a natural euphoric feeling, it may also be referred to as a “runners high.” Consistent fitness exercise will help you stay focused, and also relaxed.
Many people have the experince they are dying when they experience a panic attack. We recommend a sufferer of panic attacks should gain treatment as soon as possible, otherwise they are liable to recieve more intense and scarey panic or anxiety attacks.
Another symptom of panic attack is severe dizziness and feel light headed. It is important to sit down and take deep breaths so to not hurt oneself. One can easily recognise when they are suffering a panic attack by the following events, jitters, shaking, heavy sweating and being very nervous. You may be asking yourself what can cause these symtoms to start happening? They are usally associated with a change in lifestyle. Many things can be associated with a change in lifestyle such as money problems, relatinship issues, moving house and lack of proper sleep. We recommend sufferers of panic attacks cut out any alcohol out of their diet immediately.
We hope the above procedures have helped and should assit you in at least controlling your panic or anxiety attacks.
