When you for the first time are overwhelmed by an anxiety panic attack, you have no clue what happens. It shuts you down completely. You experience all kind of physical symptoms like a racing heart, your stomach speaks up, sweating all over your body, insomnia and many more. Although you say to yourself that there is not any real danger, this does not put an end to the panic attack. You can not rationalize it to stop. It is like a mystic force that has taken over control of your body.

Anxiety may develop at any age in a person’s development. Many times when it develops in adults it is following some type of trauma. This is often referred to as post traumatic stress disorder. This disorder is quite complex and takes a different approach than dealing with the treatment of anxiety. Many members of the military develop post traumatic stress disorder as a result to exposure to intense military action. For them anxiety is one of many complicated symptoms.

I visited many doctors to find a cure for my anxiety panic attacks. The majority of them can only offer you a drug to suppress the symptoms. In some cases these drugs are sedative and capable of keeping your attacks under control. But after a certain period your body seems to adapt to the medication and you need a higher dosage to achieve the same results. When you decide to stop with the medication, then very soon the panic attacks are back in full swing.

I don’t know about you, but anxiety support groups have offered me not much relief. It is nice that you have a place where you can meet with fellow victims and can share your frustrations. But when you go home at the end of the evening, your anxiety disorder had not been cured by talking with other members of the support group. It is makes you feel good for a while, knowing that you are not the only one and there is no reason to be ashamed.

Many people seem to promise some novel cure or other for anxiety panic attacks. Many people think that herbs are the solution, but the anti-anxiety herbs that I have tried are no good at all. Some of them are mildly sedative and will help to stem an anxiety panic attack, but then I run into the problem of dependency again. Meditation has helped me quite a bit, but it has not cured the problem for me. When I meditate, I am definitely less prone to get anxiety panic attacks, but I still get them from time to time. I am hoping that through a combination of different strategies, I will eventually be able to cure them. I have begun seeing a psychiatrist and that has helped somewhat, but the results are slow to take effect. Currently I am researching a new treatment that directly deals with the organ in the brain that is responsible for triggering an attack. The reviews and testimonials give me a lot of hope.
