Panic Attacks – Cure Without Medication, Is It Possible?
Panic attacks, which incidentally are much the same as anxiety attack, will come quickly, and with a vengeance. They usually hit you at the worst possible moment. If you have had one I’m sure you pray you don’t get another. Well your prayers could be about to come true.
Hit Like A Train
My wife was driving when she was struck by her first panic attack. This could have been a disaster if she had crashed, or crashed into someone. When we both got over the shock, and let me tell you I was as shocked as her. We went to visit our doctor.
After the lecture that it’s all in her head we eventually got prescribed beta blockers. I’m using the term “we” here as I felt as much part of it as my wife did. The drugs would (he promised) stop her heart from racing at the onset of an attack, thus stopping the attack. All good in theory.
We tried going out in the car again and sure enough, at the same place she felt another attack looming. The upshot was, she had a full blown panic attack. Albeit without the racing heart rate. She said it was the strangest feeling having a panic attack but at the same time feeling quite calm.
Stick The Drugs In The Trash
We trashed the beta blockers as soon as we got safely home. A full 9 months went by and she never drove the car once. She never had a panic attack either, which was a mixed blessing.
We decided we couldn’t carry on like this; her not being able to drive was now causing real problems. I did some in depth research on the web and we came across various techniques to try. Which we did with varying results. We never found anything that really worked for long.
We Tried ‘Em All
The search continued until we happened on another so called “cure”. We thought we may as well give it a go. We knew any success wasn’t down to drugs as she wasn’t taking them anymore. Fingers crossed it was looking good. At the first attempt when she felt the overpowering urge to panic and scream, she put the method into play. She got through this attack ok.
When we talked after, she said she still had an attack but she managed to keep it at bay. Just knowing she had been able to lower the intensity was a huge boost in itself. She was sure the next time she could stop it all together. She didn’t.
Bit By Bit
Although not stopping it fully, she did low the intensity again. Every time she had an attack she had the ability to lower the force of it. It wasn’t too long (weeks) before she felt confident enough to see an attack coming and to halt it from going any further.
If panic attacks are the bane of your life you can either do nothing, or see your doctor and try some form of medication. The former won’t help you and the latter may or may not help.
