How To Stop Anxiety Attacks Without Medication

By Alva D. Miller


Nowadays, a lot of people are suffering from panic attacks. This is due to the increasing stimulus found almost everywhere at every time. However, I recently found out that there is a new solution to this predicament. One man, by the name of Barry McDonagh, discovered a natural technique to help stop panic attacks and general anxiety fast. He called the method Panic Away and to date it has helped over 150,000 people in 32 countries.
[How To Stop Anxiety]


Your body is kept calm with the anxiety medication which blogs the inappropriate flow of adrenalin into your body. This puts you in a better state for dealing with your anxiety disorder and its accompanying fearful thoughts. In this state, you can stop anxiety.The thing is, you do not need anxiety medication to stop anxiety. During the height of my anxiety disorder, I took drugs every day until the therapist told me he could do no more for me. That's not something you want to hear when you don't feel that you've been cured. My first concern was, "How will I manage without the medication?"

First of all, one has to know the signs and symptoms if you think you have the condition. First off is the feeling of having a heart attack and tightness in the chest. There is also that feeling of nervousness and fear, especially if you are in an enclosed area or space such as traffic, supermarkets, cinemas or public transports. You are always paranoid about everything, even with normal situations, and sometimes you have the feeling that you might go insane and lose yourself. If you have such symptoms, you are sure to be experiencing a panic attack.

For example, at the very 'whiff' of danger to the body, chemical reactions were triggered in the brain that produced split-second physical and emotional responses in the body. These gave the person under threat the greatly enhanced capacity to fight an enemy or wild animal, or, to run away to safety. This is why we call this the body's 'fight or flight' response.

The technique works not only for those who have just recently suffered panic attacks, but it also applies to those who have suffered long general anxiety. The main goal of the program is for clients to break away from the cycle of experiencing anxiety. Eventually, it encourages the person to be free from the fear of experiencing anxiety and return to normal everyday living. In addition, Panic Away does not require you to recall past events that might have stimulated anxiety. Over and above, the technique is client friendly.Be sure to check out more about Panic Away, the 21-7 Technique and more anxiety stopping information . I did, and glad to have done so. You can even give feedback on how it works for you.

You can from one minute being the centre to attention to next dreading the thought of anyone talking to you. Social Anxiety can affect you at anytime of your life. Most who have suffered from it were once confident sociable people to avoiding any social occasion. If you can't understand why you can't handle talking to people when you could once talk to anyone, don't worry. Social Anxiety affects millions of people. The most important thing you can do is learn to overcome it, accept that this is just a small moment in your life and you have a future of happiness ahead of you.

Now, in your vulnerable state, all it takes is for your stress / anxiety to rise even more, due to a stressful event or situation, such as sitting (or studying for) an exam, being stuck in traffic, shopping in a very crowded supermarket, etc. The outcome is that your overall anxiety levels are increased dramatically enough to 'fool' your mind into believing that you're under threat, and so the fight or flight response is triggered.

The correct response toward these horrific feelings is complete passivity. This means instead of fighting these horrific feelings, actually take note of them. Instead of wanting to get rid of them, realize you can live with them and solidly resolve that you will do whatever you are doing with these feelings present. Realize you can do anything just as well with these feelings present as you can without them present. Make no attempt to stop them in any way and realize that they most certainly will disappear on their own timetable. In short, the key to overcoming an anxiety attack is to let it run its course.

Now, to stop anxiety attacks, most people try to eliminate their general anxiety first. And there are many natural remedies and therapies to help you do this, e.g. hypnosis, psychotherapy, counselling, meditation, yoga, acupuncture, deep breathing exercises, visualization techniques, music therapy, etc.But the key to unlocking the real mystery of how to stop panic attacks is to recognize that you have a real fear of having more anxiety attacks. You see, once having suffered the horrifying symptoms, you clearly never want to repeat that experience. So you end up with a conscious or unconscious 'fear' of having one. And guess what? This very fear (being anxiety) builds up on your already high anxiety levels and triggers another anxiety attack!

So, rather than working on your general anxiety first (with your fear of anxiety attacks always in the background), you need to get rid of your fear and so break out of this vicious cycle of; anxiety,anxiety attack,fear,more anxiety,another anxiety attack,more fear,etc. Then, once having banished your fear of attacks, which will help prevent further attacks, you can then work on effectively eliminating your general anxiety.And, the first stage in this process, is to realize that your anxiety attacks can't harm you. As you now know, they are just the symptoms of a perceived threat that doesn't even exist. The next step is to learn and utilize a technique to help you eliminate your fear of anxiety attacks.
