panic attacksPanic Attacks

are sudden surges of overwhelming fear that that comes without warning and without any obvious reason. It is far more intense than having anxiety or the feeling of being 'stressed out' that most people experience. One out of every 75 people worldwide will experience panic attacks at one time in their lives.

People who have full-blown, repeated panic attacks can become very disabled by their condition and should seek treatment before they start to avoid places or situations where panic attacks have occurred. For example, if a panic attack happened in an elevator, someone with panic disorder may develop a fear of elevators that could affect the choice of a job or an apartment, and restrict where that person can seek medical attention or enjoy entertainment

Panic attacks are not dangerous, but they can be terrifying, largely because it feels 'crazy' and 'out of control.' Panic disorder is frightening because of the panic attacks associated with it, and also because it often leads to other complications such as phobias, depression, substance abuse, medical complications, even suicide.

The mission of Anxietypanic.com is to educate patients, families, caregivers and the community about anxiety and panic disorders in order to relieve suffering, instill hope, and improve lives.

Anxiety

is a normal reaction to stress. It helps one deal with tense situations in the office, study harder for an exam, keep focused on an important speech. In general, it helps one cope. But when anxiety becomes an excessive, irrational dread of everyday situations, it has become a disabling anxiety disorder.

Anxiety can be accompanied by physical effects such as heart palpitations, nausea, chest pain, shortness of breath, stomach aches, or headaches. Physically, the body prepares to deal with what it perceives as a threat. Blood pressure and heart rate are increased, sweating is increased, blood flow to muscle groups increases and immune and digestive system functions are inhibited (the fight or flight response). External signs of anxiety may include pale skin, sweating, trembling and many others.

benzodiazepinesTreatment for Anxiety and Panic attacks with SSRIs and Benzodiazepines



Treatment for anxiety and panic disorder using SSRIs and Benzodiazepines (Valium, Xanax, Klonopin, and Ativan are the most common) can be worse than experiencing panic attacks. For years Doctors have been handing them out like candy and the patient starts taking them not knowing what they will be facing in the future. When a patient first starts taking benzodiazepines within 15 to 20 minutes they start to feel a calm come over them. Immediately they think that they have found a cure for their attacks. Unfortunately this is not true. What happens next as time goes by their bodies build up a tolerance to the medication so the patient has to take more to get that calm feeling they felt when they first started taking them. This continues until one day they decide they want to get off of this medication. That is when the horror begins. The Doctors do not tell their patients that they could be in for months and possibly years of agonizing withdrawal symptoms from benzodiazepines. Some of the symptoms include heart racing, uncontrollable shaking, muscle spasms, nausea, vomiting, weight loss, tachycardia, palpitations, fluctuations in temperature, increased heart rate and fluctuating blood pressure.

These are just a few of the withdrawal symptoms the patients can go through. To discontinue these medications it needs to be done under close supervision of a Doctor that is familiar with benzodiazepine withdrawal or an in-patient facility. YOU SHOULD NEVER ATTEMPT TO STOP TAKING THIS MEDICATION ON YOUR OWN. Stopping the medication too quickly can cause seizures, cardiac arrest or even death. So if you have not started taking these medications DON'T. There are so many natural alternative treatments that work without the use of medication. We have complied a group of videos from YouTube of various people talking about benzodiazepine withdrawal and I urge you to watch them. We do not know these people they are random videos we thought would help people see what our Doctors have not told us. benzodiazepine withdrawalClick here to visit the page.

Anxiety and Panic Attacks Facts

In any given year, approximately 40 million American adults 18 years and older are affected by anxiety disorders. This startling data means that anxiety disorders cost the United States more than $42 billion dollars a year. According to The Economic Burden of Anxiety Disorders, a study commissioned by the ADAA and published in The Journal of Clinical Psychiatry, Vol. 60, No. 7 July 1999 this is almost 1/3 of the country's $148 billion total health bill. Those with anxiety disorders are three to five times more likely to seek medical treatment and six times more likely to be hospitalized for psychiatric disorders than people that do not suffer from anxiety.

Approximately 6.8 million are affected by Generalized Anxiety Disorder, 6 million by anxiety attacks and panic attacks, 7.7 million by Posttraumatic Stress Disorder, 15 million by social anxiety disorder, 2.2 million by OCD, and 19 million by Specific Phobia. Anxiety attacks and panic attacks are the most common emotional disorders and are more common than bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, alcohol abuse or depression. People with Anxiety and panic attacks seek relief for symptoms that mimic physical illnesses which total more than $22.84 billion and are associated with repeated use of health care services.

Is there help for anxiety attacks?

This site began in 1996 with an idea and a dream. The dream was that no one would have to face the fear of anxiety and loneliness that the "panic monster" can cause all alone. The dream became a reality and we now offer to you the most comprehensive information available on the Internet.
