How Do You Prevent Anxiety Attacks If You Don't Know What Caused the Attack?
Posted by anxiouswill in Prescription Anxiety Drugs on December 19th, 2009
How do you prevent anxiety attacks if you don’t know why they happen? If you have just gone through your first panic or anxiety attack you are probably looking for some answers. What causes anxiety attacks? How do you prevent anxiety attacks? Unfortunately, those answers may be hard to find.
The biggest fear people have after experiencing an anxiety attack is worrying that another attack will come, especially since they don’t know why the first came about. The stress of this uncertainty can sometimes actually bring another attack on. What if you didn’t have to know why the attack came, but you could prevent anxiety attacks by eliminating the fear of having another attack?
Panic attacks are terrifying experiences. Your heartbeat starts racing, you have a feeling of impending doom. You need to ‘flee or fight’. The terror that you feel is out of proportion to the situation that you’re in. No one has died from a panic attack, but you feel as if you might be the first. You start having chest pains and find it hard to breath. You are dizzy and nauseous. The 10 or 20 minutes that the attack lasts seems like hours. When it is over, all you can do is wonder when you will have another. How would a life free of the fear of another panic attack feel?
Some people feel you can prevent anxiety attacks by reducing the amount of stress in your life. Counseling may help you work through some issues that you have. Perhaps you are going through some life changing experiences that you are having trouble dealing with. Even if they are good, positive experiences, they can still be stressful.
Regular exercise and relaxation techniques can reduce general stress. Some relaxation techniques such as breathing can help you through a panic attack. When you feel an attack coming upon you, start taking deep breaths and reassure yourself that you can make it through. Concentrate on relaxing your body starting with your shoulders and working your way down.
The most important thing you can do to prevent anxiety attacks is eliminate your fear of having another attack.
