• Panic disorder is a disease like any other ailment and can be cured with proper therapies and medications.
• You have panic attacks due to certain medical conditions and not due to any weakness of brain or deficiency in character.
• Neither is it a very uncommon ailment. Remember, more than 18% of American adults suffer from some kind of anxiety disorders and panic disorder is just one of them.
• There are many online help groups who are ready to provide assistance and mental support to people like you. Keeping in touch with them will help you in your fight against panic disorders.
• Yet, the last help must come from you. You must be determined to get well and only then you will be able to overcome the panic disorder or for that matter, any anxiety related disorder.
The first step you should do is to have a proper diagnosis. See a psychiatric with MD or DO as acronyms. The process is not easy. First, all kinds medical ailments will have to be ruled out with medical test. Next, you will be referred to a psychoanalyst, who will see that there are no other psychological reasons involved. Once all other reasons are negated, you will be diagnosed with panic disorders. It will naturally take time.
While the doctors are busy doing that, do not just sit idle. Try to gather as much knowledge about panic disorders as you can. Anxiety books are now available in hordes. Look over the internet for that. While some of the books will definitely be a scam, some like Panic Away are genuine. You will have to take your chance and if you keep your judgment alive, you will know which one is genuine and which one is fraud.
Anxiety books are often the only comfort you will have. When after a bad spell of panic attack you feel as though your life has fallen apart, opening such books, knowing that some other people have suffered equally, but have been able to overcome it, will give you the strength to fight on. It will help more if you highlight the relevant portions so that finding them becomes easy.
If you find a good anxiety book read it not once but quite a few times. The Panic Away I have been talking about has changed many lives – for the better. The book is written by Barry Joe McDonagh, who himself was a panic sufferer for many years. If you follow his panic portal diligently, you will be able to get rid of your panic disorder very quickly. However, as I said before, you have to have that mental acumen to follow the techniques meticulously.
The Linden Method promoted by another ex-sufferer, Charles Linden, is another such treatment procedure. It has brought relief to thousands of patients all over the world since its inception in 1996. Of course, Charles Linden’s view differs greatly from what I had said, but that is only theoretical. While I, like so many others, have described panic disorder just as a disease that can be cured, Charles Linden refuses to admit it as such. He believes that the patient has mistakenly adopted an anxious disposition. He now has to unlearn what he has erroneously learned.
None of the above procedures takes any assistance from medication, but if you believe that you need a little medicinal help, you can always depend on homeopathic medicines for that. MIndSoothe is one such homeopathic medicine that cures the ailment from the root. It comes in pill form and all you have to take two pills in the morning and two at night.
The two main ingredients of MindSoothe are St. Johns Wort (Hypericum Perforatum) and Passiflora Incarnate in. St. Johns Wort is an antidepressant, while Passiflora is a tranquilizer. They uplift the mood and calm your nerve without causing any side effects. However, the medicine is not for those under fifteen years. In such a case, you should go for PureCalm instead. It is also an herbal medicine. It gives quick but temporary relief. At least this will help him to cope. At the same time, Linden Method have program for children too. Contact Linden Centre for that and keep hoping for the best.
