First and
foremost for any panic attack treatment, one must consult a doctor. Only under
an expert in the domain supervision, should you proceed to conduct any panic
attack treatment. While there are many therapies and medications available on
the market, here are a few common options for panic attack treatment:
Behavior
Therapy
This therapy
helps to gain control over an individual behavior. Here the individual learn to
cope with difficult situations through controlled exposure to the problems. So
that you can get back in charge and take control once again of your life.
Cognitive
Therapy
This therapy
works with changing unproductive or harmful thoughts to positive and
constructive thinking... One learns to examine and distinguish realistic from
unrealistic thoughts. Once again, as with the Behavior Therapy, the result
achieved is that one gets back to controlling one’s life.
Cognitive-Behavior
Therapy (CBT)
This therapy
is widely used by therapists, often referred as CBT. The benefit of combining
these two panic attack treatments is that the patient learns recovery skills
useful for a lifetime. Relaxation technique is another panic attack treatment
that helps the patient to cope with stress – stress being one of the main
causes of panic attacks. Some such relaxation techniques include breathing
training and exercise, such as yoga and Pilates.
There is
always specific medication for panic attack treatment.
Medication
is very effective and is often used in combination with some of the above
mentioned treatments. However, always keep in mind to consult your doctor for
any panic attack treatment
Panic attack
treatment is conducted over a period of a few months. It is almost always
effective, but, do not expect results overnight. Also, get your family
involved, you will need all the support and love you can get. Love cures most
any illnesses or so they say!
Like any
other treatment – panic attack treatment, requires commitment and perseverance.
Positive thinking; the will to succeed; the love for life are any time a good
approach
Panic
attacks are caused by stress and excessive worries which are a part of our day
to day life unfortunately; so, do not neglect yourself or your dear ones. Leave
your work at your work place and time to relax.
Panic
attacks can be treated, just like any other disorder/illness. It is important
to acknowledge and seek for help. Also if you see the symptoms in others, do
not hesitate to inform them or their next of kin. Take charge of yourself, take
charge of life!
I had panic attacks for years and was very depressed. I used positive thoughts to remove myself from all the pain. I finally had such a bad year that I decided no matter what,' I was going to stop living in fear. It took many months and the action of me following my true life's passions before I was able to heal. It doesn't happen overnight. You may relapse like I did, but you can keep trying to change your life and be happier.

I’m happy that there are cures for those who suffer of anxiety. I feel sorry for these ones. But it’s ok hearing that anxiety can be cured.
