Based from the National State of Health, 2.4 million Americans have panic disorder and are suffering from its effects every year. Panic aggression and apprehension come from a variety of sources that is why it is hard to determine where it really comes from. This prevents individuals from performing and involving themselves to things that they enjoy the most.
Treatments of these conditions do not necessarily imply that it can stop or reduce panic aggression but it may help minimize the frequency and the severances of the attacks. Certain panic and anxiety attacks can be prevented at the same time controlled by following these ways:
Recognize the earliest signs of anxiety. Some of the early signs of anxiety include negative self-talk, irritability, worry, difficulty on taking a deep breath, tense muscles, sweaty palms and churning of the stomach and chest. Meditation can help in recognizing these causes thus can help in allowing the person to deal with anxiety before it develops into anxiety.
Eliminate substance that can elevate physical anxiety. Substances like caffeine and sweets should be entirely eliminated or should be taken not more than twice every day in order to stop the stimulation of the nervous system and to over-stimulate it as well.
Stop shallow breathing. Shallow breathing is one of the most common symptoms of panic attacks. By exercising proper breathing regularly or when an attack occurs can alter the chemistry of the body and the panic attack will be less likely to happen.
Observe relaxation always. If muscles are relaxed, it is not possible to have a panic attack. When panic starts, people put tense to their muscles to buttress themselves from further development of a show panic aggression. With this, panic reaction increases.
By practicing progressive muscle relaxation regularly, will help the person recognize the difference of a tense from a relaxed muscle and will permit the panicked individual to refrain from tensing the muscle which in turn causes the sufferer to relax them. In addition, it can help in reducing the effect of a panic attack.
Do not try to stop the development of panic attack. Panic attack is an assault of fear. Because of this fact, when a person reacts with the same or even more level of fear this will just result to worsening panic. It is essential to stop fearing panic as it is. Just try to live through with it or try to withstand it until it fades away.
