When Anxiety and Panic is Out of Control
Anxiety and panic can strike anyone at any time… it is estimated that anxiety disorder problems affect about 40 million Americans each year. The diverse anxiety disorder symptoms can cause sufferers to be filled with fear and uncertainty. Mild but brief forms of anxiety can be produced by a stressful event such as speaking in public or even a first date. The feelings produced by this reaction will fade away a few hours after such an event has finished. For an anxiety disorder on the other hand, anxiety feelings can last for at least 6 months and they can get worse if they not treated in time.
Panic disorder is where you feel panic, terror and feelings of helplessness. With this condition the feelings can be triggered by a simple act or memory that has no relation to where you are. This anxiety disorder is compounded by the fact that you’re continually wondering when the next panic attack will occur.
The symptoms of panic can hit any one of us. This is a normal human defense mechanism called the ‘fight or flight’ instinct and this defensive mechanism has helped humans evolve to the state that we’re in now. However, our day to day stress filled lives can bring unwanted anxieties into our spheres and it’s when these anxieties repeatedly occur that they can turn into an anxiety panic disorder. The emotions can make you feel that you’re experiencing a stroke, a heart attack or even that you’re dying. When no medical help can be found to treat this “mysterious” condition, then you’re left to wonder when the next attack may happen. As you’re unable to predict the next attack you become extremely anxious and you might also generate a lingering and intense worry that your next attack could happen the next minute.
These intense feelings can keep you on a roller coaster of anxiety and panic. The more these symptoms are repeated, your brain begins to dictate how you should live so as not to experience any more panic attacks. This then, spirals into anxiety panic disorder.
The symptoms of anxiety panic disorder involve pounding heart, weakness, feelings of being faint, and dizziness. Your hands may feel numb or they may tingle. You will experience chest pains, smothering sensations, a sense of unreality. All of these may lead you to think that you are having a heart attack, a stroke or even dying. Anxiety attacks can last anywhere from a few minutes up to 10 minutes and there are even rare cases where a case anxiety panic disorder can last for about an hour.
For people who suffer from anxiety panic disorder there are other things that need to be treated as well. Depression and alcoholism are some of the accompanying issues and sometimes panic attacks can spawn phobias as well. These phobias occur where a panic attack first happened. This may even cause an anxiety panic disorder sufferer to restrict their lives so they avoid situations that might invite another attack.
If you suffer from an anxiety panic disorder you’ll know just how debilitating it can be. To that end an anxiety panic disorder sufferer has a number of options to choose from to either learn to cope with their condition or to find a fitting cure. Where is that cure you may ask? Certainly, every case is different, but there are patients who have experienced relief and in some cases, complete recovery.
The first step however, is as always in your hands only you can find a suitable solution for your anxiety panic disorder.

Anxiety And Panic Attacks - Are Anti-Depressant Pills Effective?
In today’s fast-paced world, do most of the people find 24 hours a day enough to accomplish the tasks that they wanted to? More often than not, they may find that they do not have enough time. This lack of time, load and pressure of work creates anxiety and produces panic situations. The result is mind full of tensions and worries. All these factors combined cause loss of sleep, loss of health and other kinds of mental and physical illnesses.
All these things combined drive a person to the use of anti-depressants and other medications. Anti-depressants have been quite popular in treating stress related diseases in the past and to an extent even now. Taking pills is a commonly observed scene across the world now. Nevertheless, is it the correct way out? Is there any other alternative to it?
Millions of people across the globe have been taking anti-depressants for years and are if not completely satisfied. However, anti-depressants take at least a few weeks to act on our body and a significant number of people taking these drugs are not very satisfied.
The biggest problem with the general physicians is that they have very little training in the field of anxiety and panic situations treatments. Thus, it does not become difficult only for the patient but also the doctor to prescribe drugs under such circumstances.
The point here is that it is not difficult to deal with cases of high cholesterol or blood pressure or high blood sugar etc. the doctor can prescribe any particular treatment for any of these diseases because there are established standards. You can take a few pills and it will come under control. However, unlike all these depression and anxiety is a very complicated illness. It cannot be analysed in a matter of a few hours and tests. The treatment for such illnesses can go on for up to a few months or years and even the medication goes on for an equally long time. Treatment could be very clearly inferred from here, since the results for this kind of illness are not instantaneous.
The important thing in dealing with such cases is the knowledge of the physician. The physician dealing with such kinds of cases must be well informed of the past and all the other related events in connection with the patient. He must also be well informed of the past illnesses and medication prescribed. It is the responsibility of the doctor that he must not make the patient entirely dependant on drugs. He should also encourage the patient to undergo psychotherapy as the main course of recovery and drugs should be used as a secondary curing agent.
Latest trends have proven that when psychotherapy and drugs are used together, they have a far more beneficial result than with pills alone. In addition, in most of the cases of mild attack only psychotherapy should be prescribed. This would also help in keeping the patient away from otherwise almost addictive anti-anxiety, anti-panic drugs.
Panic and anxiety lead to depression at a later stage and are the most common causes of suicides. Most of the teenage suicide cases have been largely due to the factors. As such, we do not see suicides as an innate part of depression but it is the end result in many a cases.
Conclusion
But at the end of the day it is up to you to decide whether you want to take these anti-depressant and anti-anxiety pills or not, but you must weigh the pros and cons of these medicines before taking any further steps. You must consult not just your doctor but also your parents, your friends, your spouse before making a final decision. Above all, you must be totally convinced of your state before going in for any kind of therapy.
