Panic Attacks

Certainly, every person had been in a situation where the heart comes out of the breast or falls in the heel. When breathing becomes rebellious and painful, there is no air, there is shortness of breath. When the shaking and numb hands and feet. When thrown into cold clammy sweat and shivering. It could be a child during a severe fright. I climbed for hidden candies, and then my mother or grandmother caught and threatened with death. Or he blurts out something without thinking, and I want to sink into the ground. You never know in this harsh life for reasons of fear, fear, anxiety, worry.

If such reactions occur in really demanding of situations - normally. All these are signs that your body is preparing to overcome stress, fight - to attack or escape. Thrown adrenaline and other hormones, causing the body to combat readiness. Muscles come in tone, easy to gain the air, the sweat already ahead muscles cools. We know what these reactions are connected in and of themselves they do not scare us.

Sometimes it happens that expressed somatic manifestations of fear and fright is, and the visible, objective, understandable reasons not. Around the quiet and calm. No attack, no screaming, everyone is busy with their chores. And then bang: scary, heart jumps, pants, sweat pressure. Where to run? With whom to fight?

Such conditions can be considered terms attack panic attack or vegetative crisis. Those who have experienced something similar, unanimously report that it is extremely unpleasant and painful. Fearfully. Exhausting. Awful.

What are the causes?

Immediately, I note that the knowledge of the mechanisms and laws of development of panic attacks, their causes, makes life easier.

The first mechanism

In order to really understand the causes of panic attacks, we need to understand that this feedback in general, and the parasitic feedback in particular.

Imagine that you speak into the microphone in front of an audience. Power is doing its job. From the speakers your voice is heard loud and clear. Suddenly you inadvertently come to one of the speakers begin to utter the sentence and was horrified to notice that instead of speech in the hall a piercing howl rising. Waste, close the microphone arm - everything stops.

What was it? The sound from the speaker was "heard" a microphone, amplified, sent to the speaker, microphone and be heard so on. The result was a vicious circle.

We can say that the system of self-excited. Yes Yes. You came to mind quite correct analogy. In order that such a self-excitation, usually all very familiar already to the fourteen years.

The speaker-microphone system has come to a state of stable dynamic equilibrium. Such a state, we - the system users, completely unnecessary, even harmful and unpleasant. Therefore, the relationship between the speaker and the microphone is called a parasitic feedback.

Where is the search for stray feedback during a panic attack? It's simple! We write such a chain:

Fear - adrenaline - reaction.

If the body's reaction to the unusual and abnormal, does not correspond to the situation that is causing us? Yes, anxiety and fear again. So, we have a vicious cycle:

Fear - the reaction - the fear - a reaction ...

Now we know what a panic attack or vegetative crisis - is a process of self-excitation.

The second mechanism

Predict bouts of panic attacks is very difficult. Environmental conditions that trigger them are different. In the same conditions, attack panic attack may happen or may not happen. As you know, the fear - it is waiting for an undesirable event in the future. And so there is the additional fear of occurrence of panic attacks. And what is our reaction to fear? Isolation of adrenaline and mobilization of the body.

In the first mechanism we have found a small cycle of self-excitation. In the second mechanism of a panic attack and its accompanying troubles as phobias, we can find a great cycle. Prolonged stress and fear is injected, making us more vulnerable to external and internal factors.

Treatment of Panic Attacks

As described above, a detailed knowledge of the nature of panic attacks or autonomic crises, joint reflections with the psychologist about these mechanisms make it much easier now. If the will is strong, maybe even develop compensatory skills, which, as it develops, will reduce the frequency of panic attacks and tolerance to irritants, which may be the true cause.

To reduce stress – buy Afobazol, Selank, Phenazepam, Phenotropil and Phenibut.

This surface level. The level of consciousness and thought. As a rule, the true reasons that have led to the emergence of panic attacks are deeper in the memory of past experiences, unconscious. The majority of clients suffering from panic attacks, there are events in the past, which could be called trauma. There is always the starting pistol shot when he heard that, angry, tense sprinter starts his exhausting running in circles.

Therefore, in order to get rid of panic attacks, you must learn to remember and analyze. We need to understand what kind of character traits, drives, motives structure, ideology, led to the events that launched a vicious circle. It should be understood that it interferes with after all the suffering experienced from this circle get out.

To change your character, their worldview, their habits and desires - a lot of work. But nowhere to go. If you decide to recover, recover from a panic attack, then you have a long and painstaking work with the attentive and patient person who can provide you with psychological support.
