A study published last week by the Archive Of General Psychiatry has caused quite a stir in the growing community of anxiety and panic attack sufferers in the United States. Especially among postmenopausal women.

Panic attacks are sudden episodes of intense fear, worry, and discomfort. The symptoms can be debilitating for many people. It is common for first time panic attack victims to be rushed to an emergency room believing they are having a heart attack or stroke. Studies show there are more than six million people in the United States who are prone to anxiety and panic attacks. They are sometimes isolated events tied to things such as phobias and trauma but may also be part of a re-occurring pattern of panic attacks leading to panic disorder.

If you suffer from panic attacks, you are for sure seeking for a cure or a solution. Even if there is not a “catch all” cure, there are many strategies you can try to get some relief.

Probably the best cure is prevention and getting back more and more control of the situations your mind perceives as threatening and trigger your panic attacks. How does this work?

1) Don’t rely on Panic Attack Medications

You should try to reduce the amount of pills you are using to get panic attack relief. This is because they can give addiction and other undesirable side effects, even if you can find some immediate relief.

I suffered from agoraphobia and panic attacks for many years. I was unable to drive, standing in line at stores was usually more than I could take, eating out was a horror because I was afraid of choking, and eventually I could not even go to my mailbox.  

With no warning, my heart would start racing; my hands would feel as if they did not belong to me, I would feel like I had risen up above my body, I would be terrified.

What makes them terrible articles is that they mention words or phrases that will automatically cause a person with panic attacks to hit the back button on their browser, slam a book shut, or even go as far as to cancel all future appointments with a doctor or counselor.

If you want your article to be read, or your speech to be absorbed, then never use trigger words or phrases.
