Panic Attack Remedies and Symptoms – Vital Tips You Need To Know
Research suggests that one in every three Americans are suffering with some form of panic or anxiety disorder. Unfortunately, those numbers do seem to be on the increase. But it’s not just affecting Americans. Symptoms can be different for everyone. If you believe you might have a problem, it is always best to consult your doctor. It is estimated around the world, around seventy five million people are suffering from attacks. You might be right, then you must discuss with your doctor, which panic attack remedy might be best for you. That may or may not involve prescription medication, it may involve therapy or using simple relaxation techniques. A professional diagnosis is also important in order to dismiss the possibility of any other medical disorders.
So what are the symptoms? There are many, the most common seem to be hot and cold flushes, dizziness and the heart suddenly beating really fast. Sometimes, the person having the attack might even think they are going to die. They can become over anxious and have problems trying to breathe. Panic is a natural reaction to anxiety and stress, and there is very little to make the body physically respond more quickly. In the natural world it is known as the ‘fight or flight’ response, and it effects both animals and humans. When the body senses danger, chemicals begin to flow, making the heart beast faster.
These physical responses are to prepare us, to either stay and fight, or take flight, when a threat is sensed. So what is the best way to stop panic attacks when it gets out of control? Well that depends on the individual. Changing your diet could be a good start. Stick to healthy, nutritious meals and try to stay away from caffeine, sugar and energy drinks. Anything that could cause tension. Keeping calm and finding a way to release built up anxieties is important. Exercise works for many people, even if it’s only because of the distraction, it will only do good.
Lowering stress levels is the key. In today’s world we all know that eliminating it entirely is an impossibility. But there are lots of ways to relax, both the body and the mind. Many Holistic and alternative treatments can be beneficial for many sufferers. Discovering the cause of the anxiety is also an important factor when looking for a long term, permanent solution to the problem. Cognitive behavioural therapy and medication are often an effective resolution for lots of people. Sometime several drugs might be prescribed before the right one is found.

Your Questions About Ways To Deal With Anxiety And Depression
John asks…
Please Help. What are some healthy ways to deal with depression/anxiety?
I am 22 years old and I have been dealing with depression and anxiety pretty much all my life. Lately I’ve been losing the battle. It was really bad in junior high and I even resorted to (attempting) to cut myself… I could never actually go through with it though. I’ve also thought about suicide many times, trying to figure out how I would do it. I don’t want any lectures on this… I’m not going to do it, I have too many people that love me and would be devastate if I ever went through with it.
My problem is, dealing with all these pent up emotions. What are some healthy ways to deal with them? Obviously cutting isn’t a healthy coping method… although I can understand why some people would think otherwise (considering I’m one of them). It’s gotten so bad lately that I have these outrages temper tantrums where I’m afraid I will break something or seriously injure someone (including myself). I know I get angry when I’m sad… I’ve done it since I was a kid. I don’t want to show vulnerability so I got angry instead.
I’ve tried hitting a punching bag, but I would get so lost in it that I now have scars all over my knuckles. I used to write poetry but just can’t seem to find the words anymore. And please don’t tell me to exercise… it doesn’t work for me, I promise. If you have any other ideas or suggestions I would greatly appreciate it.
Oh and before you suggest it… my insurance doesn’t cover counseling or antidepressants so I’m pretty much screwed in that area.
fitnesshealth answers:
Sorry to hear that you are dealing with so much pain right now.
First of all look at what you are eating. Lack of certain vitamins and supplements can trigger anxiety and depression. Vitamin B-complex, specially B-6, B-9 and B-12 are the most recommended. Also Omega 3, zinc and magnesium. Reduce the ingestion of junk food as well as sugars, caffeine and alcohol. There are wonderful ways to get in touch with your thinking and the distorted patterns that are causing the anxiety and depression: here is a 2 page article that you may find interesting: http://www.heal-anxiety-and-depression.com/treatments-for-depression-1.html
Also, include relaxation techniques, try to find activities that involve helping others, sometimes we are stuck too deep in our own thoughts and frustrations, we ruminate our problems all day long and see no light at the end of the tunnel. Helping others, volunteering for a cause close to your heart, for example, can help you focus your energy in better more productive things. Here is an article I wrote about dealing with depression naturally, meaning without the need of medications…

Good luck!

Im running out of options. is there something im missing that can actually help me?
fitnesshealth answers:
Some Herbal Supplements for Depression can help and there are free trials before you commit to buying anything long term.

I hope you find something. Stay strong and good luck
Helen asks…
Best ways to deal with constant depression and anxiety?
Is there any natural products or remedies that could help?
fitnesshealth answers:
The best natural remedy is to take Omega 3 and Omega 6 essential fat – suppliment form, as well as zinc – Also apparently St Johns wort is good for some people (I didn’t find it helped)…. Get plenty of exercise to help with stress and anxiety relief…. Good luck – hope you feel better soon!
Thomas asks…
Is their a natural way to deal with depression and anxiety ?
I really need a natural way, im pregnant getting ready to start college, I can’t even drive because of my anxiety, I know this can’t be healthy for my baby either… Thanks for the help
fitnesshealth answers:
I have major depression and anxiety and have my own natural ways to deal with these conditions. However, when dealing with pregnancy, I really suggest you consult with a medical or alternative professional who is very familiar with your issues.
On YA, you might get a lot of answers from people who mean well but are not qualified to definitely answer your question. For example, St. Johns’ wort may be effective for mild to moderate depression. However, it usually takes about 3 weeks to kick in before you feel the effects. Also, I have read it can interact with many pharmaceutical drugs (in case you are taking them).
I am not sure if some of the other supplements mentioned have been PROVEN to help with your feelings during pregnancy. Again, I am not trying to criticize anyone. However, you and your baby deserve the best advice possible.
Even though you might hate the idea, some mild exercise might help with you depression and anxiety. Exercise has been extremely helpful to me, but I’m a guy so I ain’t pregnant. Some form of relaxation, deep breathing, meditation and listening to relaxation CDs can be helpful. Perhaps some form of LIGHT massage might help.
Finally, talking things over with a counselor can help. I am sure there are therapists who are especially trained in dealing with dealing with women who are pregnant.
I am sure that pregnancy plus getting ready to start college could make MANY women anxious. You are not alone. Talk it over with a professional and possible women who have had similar experiences. Congrats on being a mom!!!
William asks…
Any ways I can deal with my severe depression and anxiety?
I’ve had depression/anxiety for 6 years now, but I didn’t get help until a couple years ago. Recently, I’ve been seeing a personal counselor at my university who’s been helping me deal with this. I realized that the best way for me to get better is for someone to listen but now that the university year is over, what can I do now? The source of my anxiety and depression is my mother and father. My father means well but my mom is a perfectionist and always points out my faults, what i didn’t do, and anything negative. I lose all hope and confidence in myself and just want to healthy emotionally. I have been in denial about my parents being at fault because I truly love them but I feel like they are driving me to the brink of insanity. I’m very insecure and unable to talk to them or anyone else for that matter unless they are a professional (personal counselor) because the people that apparently love me the most are constantly putting pressure on me,never listening, and always yelling. Any help?
p.s it won’t help if you say something like think happy because most of my thoughts are negative, angry, sad, etc.
also, I don’t want to go on medication yet
sorry for the length
forgot to mention I get destructive when I get angry (punching/kicking walls or breaking anything I see)
fitnesshealth answers:
Honey, I can understand EXACTLY how you feel. I have been suffering with severe clinical depression and horrible anxiety for 17 yrs. Now! I know you say that you don’t want to start on meds, but they saved my life! I even tried suicide, which runs in my family. 8 of my father’s family members attempted suicide and 5 have succeeded. It can be inherited.
But, if you absolutely don’t want “chemical meds”, I would suggest you try the herbal remedy St. John’s Wart that you can buy at any drugstore or even Walmart, etc. It’s a mild herb, but it helps many people that don’t want to take “drugs”.
As far as being able to release some of the “constant thought” negativity, keep a journal that you write in every day. Putting them down on paper helps tremendously. If uncomfortable for anyone to see it, hide it in a very inconspicuous place like under a dresser, chest of drawer or night stand in your bedroom. Take out the bottom drawer if necessary to put it in. What keeps my mind busy and off of all my whoas is the internet, just like what I’m doing now. Do searches on anything and everything that you are really interested in. Write emails to friends. Keep asking or answering questions on this site. Do you like to work puzzle books? Jigsaw puzzles? Playing solitaire? Growing flowers? Try recipes from cookbooks to try? Learn to crochet or knit? Practice drawing from looking at some type of picture, even though you don’t draw well? Doing some type of housework that you don’t mind doing? Any type of crafts you may be interested in learning? Anything that takes concentration will help tremendously.
Make a list of all your negative and positive things about yourself. We all have a good and bad side. Remind yourself by reading your “good” list of yourself EVERYDAY. Try to find a solution to all the negative things about yourself, too. Practice control of your temper because that’s a horrible way to live your life. It only makes yourself and others around you miserable. Don’t you agree? Maybe take some Anger Management courses to find ways to control your emotions and practice, practice, practice until you change that part of your personality. It CAN be done!! Have faith and be strong. Don’t LET people’s negative words destroy your mental health. Just say that they are lying to yourself. People can only hurt you mentally if you LET them!!!!! Please remember that!!!!
Sorry for the long answer, but my heart goes out to anyone suffering like I have for so long.

Panic Attacks Treatment – 5 Simple and Effective Methods
Panic attacks are about as much fun as a heart attack. They seem to serve no useful purpose, but they do interupt life’s activities and have various negative effects. Building an arsenal of means to fight back against the panic attacks can help control them. Here are five simple and effective methods.
I. Breathing
The problem with breathing typically during a panic attack or state of heightened anxiety is that we overbreathe as if we were already engaged in an energy-demanding fight or flight reaction. Breathing more than is needed for the body’s given energy requirements exacerbates some anxiety and panic symptoms.
One must therefore train oneself s to breath more slowly, preferably deeply and through the nose. Training between panic attacks helps us breathe slowly during attacks. An ideal fugure to shot for is an inhale-exhale cycle lasting about six seconds. An intermediate goal might be four or five seconds per cycle, of course providing one also breathes deeply from the whole lung instead of an shallow fashion largely from the top of the lung as most of us with a sedentary lifestyle practice.
II. Accepting
Often just knowing our panic attacks are not imminently fatal gives a degree of relief. Accepting and even welcoming the symptoms of panic attack can be more so. If one can accept them and even challenge them to get worse, one begins to feel control over the symptoms. On the flip side, doing all we can to reduce or avoid the symptoms makes us feel anxious that the panic attack is in control. Granted, this is not an easy task. “Overwhelming” is characteristic of panic. But accepting the symptoms need not be tackled alone, and need not be tackled all at once. Here is where a good counselor can help.
III. Gratitude
One may consider distractions as an effective method of treating panic attacks. Indeed, they can be, especially immediately preceding a panic attack. But they can also postpone pentup emotional outbursts like panic attacks, so their long term effectiveness may be in doubt unless other means can be used to cure panic in the interim.
Gratitude may be a form of distraction, but if so, it also serves as a contrary emotion, a positive emotion if you will that counteracts the negative one of fear.
Thankfulness can be used to greatest effect when it is exercised regularly over a period of time. The important thing is to feel genuinely grateful. That can have more of an effect calming the mind than one might think. It may be one reason that relevant religious practices are known for keeping people calm in difficult circumstances.
IV. Moving about
Regular physical exercise has various positive benefits that may serve to strengthen one against the trials of panic attacks. More directly, exercise reduces stress hormone levels in the body and releases other hormones which have a calming influence on the brain.
What one can accomplish during a panic attack may vary depending on general health and physical surrroundings, but where moving about can reasonably be accomplished, it can constructively use up some of the energies produced by fear (or stress hormones). More effective during a panic attack is when that exercise can be channeled in an enjoyable, especially in an exciting way. Of course those with asthma, diabetes, heart disease, or a variety of physical difficulties must be more cautious and limited here. Consult with a physician first.
V. Affirming
Our minds can dwell interminably on uncertainty and “what if” scenarios. We can and do adopt certain beliefs about the way things are that aren’t necessarily so. Those beliefs may take the form of false assumptions. Rooting out those false and fear-inducing assumptions and replacing them with positive affirmations can be an effective means of controlling panic attacks. The positive affirmations can be rehearsed in a panic.
And other methods exist. For any given individual, effectiveness of methods depends in part on individual causes of the panic. Panic attacks may be attended with other problems such as exposure to environmental toxins, various diseases, relationship problems, stessful employment, emotional trauma, drug or alcohol abuse, and so on. Often the causes are removed from the panic experience and therefore mysterious to the panic attack sufferer. Panic attacks often seem to strike out of nowhere. And often attendant problems must be addressed separately. But the above five methods are very commonly effective.
