The Need to Stop Panic Attacks
from:If you are suffering from the following symptoms when you are
feeling nervous, you are most probably under a panic attack.
According to the American Psychological Association, the
symptoms of a panic attack usually last approximately thirty
minutes. They can be as short as 15 minutes, and in certain
cases, even hours.
Anxiety symptoms
1. Headaches.
2. Chest pain. This is usually a psychological effect and is
often perceived as a heart attack. This is actually harmless and
does not pose any life-threatening danger. However, always seek
a doctor's advice when in doubt.
3. Dizziness. It is a condition whereby the victim feels
lightheadedness, sometimes even confused and disorientated. It
is often linked to hyperventilation (see below).
4. Hyperventilation. It occurs when you are breathing faster
than normal. This reduces the carbon dioxide level in your
blood, which in turn raises the pH level of your blood. The
higher pH level will affect our muscles and nerves, which in
turn results in dizziness (see above).
5. Feeling nauseous. This is a common symptom. When a person is
feeling nervous, the brain will induce vomiting so that the
person can 'feel better'. This is a natural mechanism that our
body possesses to get rid of toxins in the body.
6. Trembling. This is the involuntary movement of muscles in the
body, usually in the hands. Other symptoms related to trembling
include a shaky voice and feeling 'cold'. That is why we often
hear the phrase 'he trembled in fear'.
The need to stop panic attacks.
1. When a panic attack strikes, it can often leave a person
feeling helpless and inferior. The only way to overcome an
anxiety attack is to tackle the problem from the root.
2. Save yourself the embarrassment. You need not come up with
some dumb excuses whenever a panic attack strikes. In a
worse-off situation, you might be chasing away your potential
date!
3. A recent study suggests that women during menopause with many
occurrences of panic attacks have 3 times the risk of suffering
a heart attack or stroke. However, the results are not
conclusive enough to prove the relationship between panic
attacks and heart damage.
4. You will be able to do the things that you have always wanted
to do, but have been putting them off due to your phobias. You
might be wanting to try scuba-diving, sky-diving, or even
swimming! Overcome your fear and enjoy life to the fullest!
