October 29, 2009 5:29 am anxiety and panic attacksWhen in the grips of a panic attack it may seem like your life is coming to an end. Although difficult for non panic attack sufferers to understand the pain of a full blown panic attack is all too real to those who suffer from panic disorder. Panic attacks can strike you anywhere and at any time and in seemingly safe environments. In this article I will alleviate some confusion as to the symptoms and an effective panic disorder treatment.
Have you ever been so afraid of having an anxiety attack that you trigger an panic attack? Sometimes the fear of having a panic attack is as bad as the panic attack itself. One common scenario is a social event that you’ve been looking forward to going. Only thing is that as the event approaches your anxiety goes through the roof!
The conflict: We’re typically really excited to attend out social event. There may be friends or family there or maybe even a hot date. Maybe we’ve been looking forward to this event for weeks or even months but the thought of panic and anxiety never leaves our consciousness.
Sadly, as the time draws closer our anxiety increases as well. If we even make it out of the house, entering a crowded venue may be enough to trigger a full blown panic attack. There may be nothing dangerous or scary there. We may logically know that there is nothing to be afraid of, but all of that doesn’t matter. The anxiety grows until we realize we’re in the grips of a panic attack.
The symptoms of a panic attack vary from person to person but everyone who suffers from panic disorder can agree that it’s a terrifying experience. Symptoms include; rapid heartbeat, excessive sweating, feeling of impending doom, terror, fatigue, insomnia, shortness of breath, feeling faint, and on and on.
So can I find an effective panic disorder treatment that will work for me? The answer is YES without a doubt! Of the many treatments available the most widely used are; drugs, psycho therapy, and self help treatment programs. Be aware that some of these have major side effects and are extremely expensive.
Drug therapy can be very effective in alleviating anxiety if you’re lucky enough to stumble upon a drug that works for you. Sadly, many people waste many years and countless dollars trying to find a drug that doesn’t cause severe side effects. Also, drug therapy must be continued indefinitely is expensive.
Psychotherapy can help the panic attack sufferer learn effective coping mechanisms to deal with panic attacks and the times leading up to a panic attack. As with drug therapy, find a psychotherapist that works well with your personality can also be a frustrating, time consuming, and extremely expensive endeavor. Good psychotherapists can cost from $100 to over $300 per hour (session). So although progress can be made, it comes with a heavy price.
The final and extremely effective panic disorder treatment is self help programs. Don’t worry, with self help programs there’s no group therapy sessions to add unnecessary anxiety to your life. With a little dedication and determination you can work through effective treatment programs in the comfort and security of your own home. Effective programs follow the exact same treatment procedures as you would follow in a psychotherapy session.
