I must say that panic ...

The manifestations of panic attacks can be very diverse and cover many areas. Therefore, people often do not know which doctor to handle. In our work we are often faced with situations where patients come to us, passing in front of this many surgeries. Private practitioner is also not always know which specialist to refer the patient, as symptoms of panic attacks is very diverse. A better address to a neurologist. At the time of a panic attack occurs wild fear. When the heart stops, a person think that life stops and nothing can be done. We explain to patients that during the crisis he would not die (in medical practice, not a single similar case) that this condition is not catastrophic and not life threatening. When an attack of panic attack is repeated the second and third time, a man gets used as much as possible to get used to it, and already more relaxed view of such states. Fear of death fades into the background, but the instinctive sense of fear still remains. Terrible catastrophic consequences of a panic attack can not be held. But if it at least once a position has arisen in an enclosed space (in the subway, airplane, bus), the fear begins to harass a person in any similar situation. There is a restrictive behavior. At first people to be afraid of the subway, then afraid to ride public transportation, and then just go out into the street. Many of our patients traveling for only tranquilizers. Recent studies have shown that the most optimal - is treatment with drugs that increase the amount of serotonin in the brain. This substance is responsible for the pleasure center, and it is usually not enough in the body during vegetative crises. One method of treatment of panic attacks is phototherapy or treatment with white light. Here goes through the impact of the retina in certain brain structures, which themselves are beginning to produce serotonin. If we identify that the root cause of disease is stress, a very good effect makes psychotherapy. This hypnosis, relaxation, breathing exercises, family therapy. And, of course, strengthen procedures: massage, swimming. If you hold such a comprehensive treatment of autonomic crises can say goodbye forever. If you start an attack, it is better to sit down and bowed his head down, to increase blood flow to the head. Put the pill under the tongue Validol. If you think that is about to lose consciousness, hold the nose balm with an asterisk or spray with a sharp minty scent. This will have the effect of ammonia. I must say that panic attacks rarely accompanied by loss of consciousness, but often a man teetering on the brink of presyncope. What advice can still be given? Try not to be afraid, for there is nothing worse than fear itself, from which, incidentally, women are affected twice as often as men.
