Back when I was 21 was my first panic attack. I was at my workplace, talking to my coworkers when I suddenly felt my knees trembled and my heartbeat abnormally fast. I hurried to the bathroom to got some water, however, my body went numb and cold, and my knees still shaking. I felt an intense fear inside me. I thought that something frightening will happen soon. I thought of my love ones. This made me feel terrified which caused my breath to shorten. I almost collapsed when my friend was just right on time of catching me. She gave me water. I can see how worried she was while I was still gasping for air. This was just one of the more attacks I had since then. It started to come back during my birthday party. The thought of being attacked made me realized that I need help. So I went medication and therapy and that help me cure my panic attacks.
With the fear of having such horrifying experience, I seek for more information about panic attack and found out that this is a form of anxiety disorder. What commonly experienced by the patient are similar to what I've encountered. Because of this, I gathered helpful tips out from my therapies. Here are some few recommendations on how to cure panic attacks.
Post a Positive Point of View. My negative perception of life is what caused me to get into this anxiety disorder and panic attack. I was too anxious about everything and not too showy of my feelings. I fear being dismiss so I chose to isolate myself and withdraw from others, not realizing how much this risked my own self.
Keep yourself fit. My therapy made me recognize how important keeping myself fit with a healthy diet and exercise. Back then, I never care of my figure, since I wasn't fat anyway. So I enjoyed stuffing myself with junkfoods and was always lazy to exercise, not anticipating the risk. After my therapy, I determined how keeping myself fit not only boosts my body physically, but also strengthen my emotional and mental state.
Relieve from Stress. There are many things to consider here. Number one is working too hard, and two, keeping my problems to myself. Since my teenage life, I kept pushing myself too hard and forget about enjoying my youth. And since I was full of pride back then, I also didn't like to share my thoughts, especially to my parents. The pain and burden inside me got buildup and formed stress which contributed to panic attacks and anxiety disorder.
How to cure panic attack should start with us. This only indicates that what we do to our body will affect on how the body will respond to us. Therefore, we must start taking care of our body by keeping ourselves away from stress and living the healthiest lifestyle.
