CLICK ON & CHECK THE ABOVE OUT FOR YOURSELF IF YOU'RE REALLY SERIOUS ABOUT FINDING A CURE FOR
PANIC ATTACKS.
Nowadays they are called panic attacks but my mother used to call fear anxiety and depression the unholy Trinity. Although she was being melodramatic when she said it, it held a lot of truth for her. She always had panic attacks whenever things got tough for her. There were also certain things that she was phobic of and, no matter how much she tried to treat them, they never quite went away. Her panic attacks, I am sorry to say, lasted from her childhood until the day of her death.
When I raised my own children, I vowed that nothing would give them panic attacks. Sadly, there is only so much you can do as a parent. I didn't know what it was, but my youngest ended up having the same symptoms as my mother - fear anxiety and depression. I was heartbroken. I thought I'd been a bad parent at first, but then one of my friends told me to wise up.
The one thing that I was certain about was that I didn't want to put my daughter on any medication. I wanted to get to the root of the panic attacks and stop them happening in the first place.
I feel that both I and my daughter were blessed as a friend made me read a brilliant book that supported me in treating my daughter without the need for any medication.
I'd like to share with you some of the things that I learned along the way to my daughter's full recovery.
Diet is very important. There are some foods that you should avoid and some that you should eat more of. What you are eating today will have an impact on the level of anxiety you experience tomorrow so it is vital to understand what effect your diet is having on you. The more balanced your diet the easier it is for your mind/body relationship to feel strong and secure. There are certain foods that are good at building inner calm and other ones that you need to avoid.
One of the most interesting things I learned is that it is the anticipation of having a panic attack that actually starts it off in the first place!
To understand that and begin to be in control of the panic, taking exercise is vital. Besides the obvious health and relaxation benefits' exercise gives you a sample of what it is like to put your body into an exerted state just as if you were having a panic attack. This way you can learn to become comfortable with the heightened state of exertion without fearing that your body will not be able to handle it. This is an important connection for your mind to make.
Next, I learned how distraction is the panic attacker's friend.
When nervous we've all had the experience of been distracted by something and as a result felt more at ease. Distraction helps you to retrain your focus and keep your attention on what is going on around you.
But most importantly I learned and witnessed how you can cure panic attacks by re-training yourself to think in a positive constructive manner rather than in negative spirals of anxious thought.
This isn't just using positive affirmations, it is so much more and as I witnessed does truly cure a panic attack.
