Coping with Anxiety Panic Attack
from:
Anxiety panic attack is manifested by the following physical symptoms: stress sensations, rapid heartbeat, chest pain/tightness, tension headaches, light headedness, sweaty palms, fatigue, low energy and sleep disturbance. Aside from the physical symptoms, patients also have problems when it comes to socializing with others, since they tend to be shy, introverted, nervous, self-conscious, have a fear of embarrassment and public speaking. They also tend to recollect mistakes and they become hypersensitive.
Since anxiety panic disorder is an emotional disorder, patients usually develop an awful view towards life that reflects on their thought patterns. Usually patients with anxiety panic disorder will have frequent worries, will always fear the worst will happen and there are also cases wherein a patient thinks he or she is going crazy.
This type of thought pattern, if not given attention, will likely cause slight paranoia and develop a feeling of uncertainty. There are also times a patient also becomes too analytical and tends to over analyze everything, which often results in fearing the worst will always happen to them. This usually leads to depression, anxiety, stress and then finally a panic attack.
Anxiety panic attacks are quite scary, especially if you happen to experience one in a situation that puts your life at risk, such as while you’re speeding down the highway in your car. This is definitely a life threatening situation since the possibility of you having an accident is a strong possibility. In situations like this it’s best to pull over to the side of the road and get out of your car to get some fresh air. Practice breathing. Inhale and then hold your breath for two second before breathing out. Repeat this until you finally feel calm and relax.
Anxiety panic disorder is one of the common mental disorders currently prevalent in the world today. However, in US alone, about 19.1 million or 13.3% of the adult population between the ages of 18 to 54 are suffering from this condition. Anxiety disorder can really increase depression which leads to serious attacks.
There are, of course, effective treatments that can prevent anxiety attacks from occurring frequently. Treatments range from medications to therapies which are proven very effective in helping patients with anxiety panic disorders. These treatments help these patients live a normal life that is free from recurring anxiety attacks.
Proper treatment, together with better understanding of what anxiety panic disorder is all about, can increase the chances of a patient to recover fast. Likewise, new technologies are continuously being developed in order to better know the biological, psychological as well as the social factors that contribute to the development of anxiety disorder. This, of course, will lead to better treatments and better ways of controlling anxiety attacks.
Factors That Contribute To Anxiety Disorder
Research has determined that anxiety disorder is hereditary. There has been evidence that shows heredity is in fact a great factor in the development of anxiety. It’s believed there are some genetic factors that might have been activated by an experience or a situation that evokes abnormal feelings of fear, depression and stress which leads to anxiety.
Another factor that has been discovered to cause anxiety disorder is brain chemistry. This has been determined after it was observed that medications given to patients suffering from anxiety disorder tend to alter the levels of chemicals in the brain, which results in controlling the attack.
A person’s personality type also contributes to the development of anxiety disorder. Most of the people who’ve been observed suffering anxiety attacks are those who have a very uptight personality or those with can’t-take-a-joke type of personality.
Life experiences also increases the possibility of anxiety attacks. Experiences such abuse, violence and even poverty can cause the development of anxiety disorder. Likewise, medicines like amphetamines, Ecstasy or LSD can trigger anxiety panic attacks.
