A life interrupted by recurring panic attacks can be very difficult to manage. You never know when an attack will hit, and a treatment that works for one person could be useless to another. This fact makes it difficult to find a technique that will work for you. What follows are some suggestions that have proven effective with others dealing with panic disorder symptoms. Some of them may help you as well.

  • If you start to experience a panic attack, put on some relaxing music. Sit in a calm room and listens to songs you like. Pay close attention to the lyrics. By focusing on the music, you allow your body to forget about the panic and relax.
  • Adopting n proactive attitude toward a panic attack will make it go away quickly. Resisting your fear can help you control your panic attacks.
  • Learn to anticipate your panic attack. If you have been suffering for panic attacks, you have to have a plan in place for dealing with them when they happen. You don’t want to be caught unawares, so know what you will do before you even start having a panic attack in the first place.
  • Feeling isolated and alone can make it more difficult to cope with your feelings of anxiety. A good support system can help you overcome panic disorders. Isn’t this what you have friends for?
  • If you feel frightened during an attack, ask yourself what there is to be afraid of around your environment. Ask this question aloud so your ears can hear it. Ask yourself if there is actually someone there who can harm you. Just sit down, relax, and relax as stress goes away.
  • Seeking the help of a therapist is very helpful in dealing with your panic disorder symptoms. Their specific purpose is to help you. Just realizing there is a professional around to handle the symptoms can go a long way in preventing future attacks.
  • At the first indication that a panic attack is underway, immediately try put your attention toward something else. Find something in the room to focus on, sing a favorite tune (silently, if in public), or try reading a book. Simple tasks like that can help you stop feeling panicky. This strategy can help to prevent a full attack and get you feeling calm again.
  • It is not good if your panic attack disorder symptoms overwhelm you. Learn to work through the panic attack instead of fighting it. Instead of letting the panic attack disrupt your emotions, imagine that the attack is going around you, that your body is like the bow of a ship parting the water. Focus on practicing proper breathing techniques. Breath in fully and exhale slowly as a way to stay calm. As your adrenaline level decreases, you will feel better.

    As the person dealing with your personal panic attack symptoms, you are very aware of the signs that precede an oncoming attack. The next time you sense an attack is immanent, try one or more of these suggestions. They may very well lessen your symptoms and the severity of the attack.
