Welcome to My Anxiety Solution Blog Click Here To Find Out How I Permanently Cured My Anxiety And Panic Attacks Posted by Julie Stevenson on: November 23, 2009 Panic Disorder - Figuring Out Solutions to the ChallengeThe first thing you should understand about panic disorder is it's a specific category of anxiety disorder. When a person endures a panic attack, it becomes characterized this way. It's also important to know these are not triggered by an event, situation or other aspect. Did you know panic disorder can affect anyone? Even though it is seen more in teenagers and young adults, there are older individuals who suffer as well. Plus, women are affected more than men. The symptoms can last anywhere from 2 minutes to 30, depending on the severity. Unfortunately there is no way of knowing what side of the spectrum your attack will be on, but either one can put a wrench in your daily life. The good news is there are a variety of symptoms that all sufferers find in common. Above all else, the overwhelming feeling of fear will be present. It's believing that doom or disaster is right around the corner. It can be a paralyzing issue and make it hard for someone to make it through the day. There are others who simply feel like they're going to die during a panic attack. A lot of this has to deal with the shortness of breath that occurs. When you experience a panic attack, the heart feels like it's pounding so hard it's about to come out of your chest. This can lead to chest pain and the misconception that it's a heart attack. The throat starts to tighten as well. While it may not feel like someone is choking you, the lack of air is enough to worry someone. Then of course the involuntary body movements and skin sensations can occur. You may also have to deal with shaking and trembling, muscle spasms, twitching, jerking, crawly skin, burning sensations, numbness, and like your body has a mind of its own. The digestive tract can be disrupted as well. We understand many people go through upset stomachs, but the waves of nausea can eventually lead to vomiting. If this wasn't enough, diarrhea can be present as well. You may experience a taste change as well. While different food will taste different, sometimes it will taste as though they've been exposed to metals or chemicals. Then of course the senses are affected as well. Your ears may feel clogged, endure muffled sounds, or feel like you're in a tunnel. You could also have to deal with ringing, throbbing or pulsing. When it comes to your vision, this may become distorted or blurry. These are only a few of the many symptoms an individual comes across when dealing with a panic attack. For instance, you might also come across changes in your skin color, temperature, fainting, pain or sweating, fatigue, changes in the libido, night sweat, or even your weight. Even though this is an overwhelming thought with so many symptoms, there are effective natural treatments available. Whether it's the use of herbs, aromatherapy, yoga and meditation, or exercise, each one of them can lower your stress levels. Doing so will decrease the chance of a panic attack and help control your panic disorder. If you don't want to consult with anyone, we will tell you there are a few good self-help books that reduce the overall issues of panic disorder as a whole. It might be your best solution. Just remember that this is not something you cure overnight. In fact, it will probably take a little experimenting to find out what works and what doesn't. There is even the chance that a combination of treatments will be needed to give you the best results. About the author: For many years, Julie had severe anxiety problems.
