Causes Of Panic Attack and Other Anxiety Disorders http://www.howtopreventpanicattacks.net Working Together To Overcome The Obstacles In Life Tue, 09 Mar 2010 20:38:07 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.4 en hourly 1 Are there any panic attack products that can help me? http://www.howtopreventpanicattacks.net/panic-attack-therapy/are-there-any-panic-attack-products-that-can-help-me http://www.howtopreventpanicattacks.net/panic-attack-therapy/are-there-any-panic-attack-products-that-can-help-me#comments Tue, 09 Mar 2010 20:38:07 +0000 admin http://www.howtopreventpanicattacks.net/panic-attack-therapy/are-there-any-panic-attack-products-that-can-help-me I’ve been suffering from them for about 2-3 years now and have found therapy, and books, cd’s etc.. helpful but when i do occasionaly get one, i have nothing to occupy me or help me at the time of the attack apart from remembering what i learnt which helps, but i know if i can use something hand held so to speak it would help alot more.

Is there anything like that out there for example i know a stress ball is something similiar but not really designed for panic attacks but stress? i cant seem to find anything.

Thanks

I carry a very small stone/ rock with me. I found one with lots of different textures. When a panic attack is coming I have it close and can hold it in my hand. I usually use my thumb to feel the different textures and put all my concentration on that until it passes.

Stones are easy to find and are free so you can change them often. Which also helps as you can compare them to the others you have.

I don’t want to drive anymore but I have to take my daughter to school. I need something used under $6,000 any advice?

I was hit and almost killed by a drunk driver and if it wasn’t for my Saturn I would be dead. The cross bar saved my life as I was hit at 40mph on the drivers side door by and SUV. I now own a new Saturn Ion, with same saftey features and cross bar. It’s a super safe car and God forbid, can save your life. The Ion’s also come equipt with OnStar incase you need any help. Good luck

I am on medication, but I’m still always worried that my tounge is swollen and that im going to either swallow it or choke on it. My breathing has got a little better and I don’t get rapid heartbeat as much, but there’s still something there …. HELP please. I need answers.

I’d say the worst thing that could happen is you not discussing your concerns with your doctor. All the advice in the world you get from here can’t replace having a good doctor check you out.

Does this mean that your body is actually having one? Because I dreamt that I was having a panic attack where i was breathing in and out very fast. Because I thought i was going to be late for a exam. But I’m not sure if i was really having an attack or it was just in my head :S and could this be anxiety, whats the difference between the two ?
Thankyou in advance :)

It doesn’t automatically mean you’re ahving a panic attack (just like draeming that you’re eating a bagal doesn’t mean you will feel full, or dreaming that you are drowning doesn’t necessarily mean you’ll start gasping for air). The difference is between thought and action/physiological response, or basically, how much you let it all get out of control instead of being able to calm yourself down. You can think about having a panic attack right now without going into one (in fact, if you practice imagining panic attacks and working through them a lot, it might decrease your tendency to have one, yay for gradual exposure). Panic attacks are by their definition "in your head" (your thoughts react to body sensations, creating a cascading effect where everything gets worse).

Now I find myself really upset, it gets harder and harder for me to breathe and there is a dull pain starting in my chest and seems to get worse when something new (in a bad way) comes up. It’s like it never ends and my head is burning up from the anger. Am I on the way to having a panic attack? I’ve tried breathing in deeply, taking a break from work, smoking a cigarette, etc.

From experience, I can tell you panic attacks come in a palethera of variations. There’s the one you describe: The I feel like I’m going to have a heart attack and just die right here kind. (Those are fun, so fun , the E.R. sees them daily.) Then there are the, I feel paranoid, can’t stand in a checkout line ones that send many fleeing the store leaving grocery basket in middle of aisle 7. Then there are the What I’d really like to do is just find a comfy spot in hall closet for awhile till my pulse slows down a tad. It can all be draining..and pi** you off, to put it mildly…You have to take along deep breathe, hold it, then release air SSLLOOWWLLYY..and do this for about a minute..don’t hyperventilate, or you’ll feel like your suffocating..DONE IT!! I take antidepressents and it helps the anxiety. Don’t listen to Tom Cruise and his pompous attitude towards meds. He’s not anxious, he’s just NUTS!..period….
