How To Stop Panic Attacks

Sue stopped traveling on the subway because of panic attacks.She would become irrationaly worried about falling sick on the subway, passing out, or vomiting and she would start to hyperventilate and feel extremely nauseous. She ended up always having to leave the train car immediately.

Being anxious, tense or nervous is just a part of the world we live in today. In fact, practically everyone will experience some form of anxiety or panic attack during the course of his or her life.

Physical symptoms of a panic attack-

Most people who have a panic attack describe it as a feeling that they are "crawling out of their skin." The symptoms include:
Heart palpitations
Chest pain
Breathing difficulty
Feeling of pressure on the chest
Dizziness or light headedness
Trembling or shaking
Other symptoms can include a feeling of being extremely "high" or intoxicated with things seeiming unreal or surreal. You may even feel that you are going to die.

Anxiety disorders including panic attacks have now become so prevalent that there are now thousands of people seeking treatment for their anxiety.
There are several current treatments that are available for panic attacks and anxiety disorders, ranging from medication to reduce anxiety, cognitive behavioral therapy which focuses on coping techniques and exposure therapy. There are also alternative treatments such as hypnosis, meditation and relaxation techniques.


Unfortunately, many people are prescribed medications that have little effect or unpleasant side effects, and they can spend endless hours in therapy with little to show for it. They still suffer from panic attacks and anxiety.

Fortunately, if you are interested in a natural remedy for panic attacks there is a radical new treatment recently released that is unlike anything that is available today.
