Andrew Lim asked:


Do you have frequent panic attacks? Do you want to stop it without the need for medicine?

First of all, you need to understand that the intensity and frequency of a panic attack varies from person to person. However, reports have show that nearly every sufferer goes through a similar set of symptoms, with the overall fear that something awful is happening to them or that they are dying.

Some people get panic attacks in relation to situations in which even non-sufferers of panic attacks may get nervous, such as public speaking or taking an important test. While others experience panic attacks in relation to nerve upsetting situations, or their panic attack simply come out of the blue. These instances are arguably the most terrifying because there are no external causes that makes the body react in such abnormal ways, creating confusion and more anxiety.

You heart is pounding madly, you feel dizzy and you can't breathe properly. Its completely normal for you to get frightened. Who doesn't when they feel such symptoms all at once?

However, what most people who experience panic attacks don't realize is that the fear of such symptoms worsen their panic attack. Without this irrational fear, panic attack will cease to exist. Its that simple but its also, in that moment, difficult. If you are able to relax yourself, you won't even have repeated panic attacks in the first place.

The fastest way to stop a panic attack from escalating is to practice deep breathing. During a panic attack, your breathing quickens and your heart beats wildly, hence you need to break that with deep breathing. Focus on breathing slowly, lying down will also help to maintain deep breathing. Another way is to put the opening of a small paper bag over your mouth and breath in and out of it, allowing the bag to expand and contract completely.

Lastly, the most important factor is to remember that panic attack can do you no harm. This is the KEY to stopping it forever. You need to BELIEVE that panic attack cannot harm you, which is a fact, not something I made up just to comfort you.

Remind yourself of these FACTS about panic attacks:

-Panic attack CANNOT cause you to stop breathing.

-Panic attack CANNOT cause you to faint.

-Panic attack CANNOT cause you to have heart attack

-Panic attack CANNOT cause you to die.

Remind yourself that the symptoms, no matter how uncomfortable, will in time fade away even without your intervention (its true!). Learn to live with the panic attacks but NEVER give in. Accept that you have panic attack, don't run or hide from it...and certainly don't fear having it!

Learning about the warnings signs of anxiety attacks is crucial so you can effectively deal with it rather than ignore it. The sensations these episodes can bring are often unpleasant to experience but fortunately, most cases are treatable. The following are 3 common symptoms in addition to helpful tips to overcoming panic attacks.

1. They can occur at any time

Pinpointing an exact cause of these attacks are often difficult as they can occur when you least expect whether you're at the mall or out shopping. Symptoms such as a tight feeling in your chest, increased heart rate and even shortness of breath are all signs of anxiety. When this occurs, try to identify the cause whether it's a place or event that you have strong feelings towards.

2. High levels of anxiety

The next common signs are feeling high levels of anxiety in addition to worrying excessively to the point where it can disrupt your daily routine. It's not so much the actual situation or event that causes panic but rather the anticipation of what could happen next. Many people often tend to think about the worst case scenario so facing reality will help to overcome these feelings.

3. Fear that something bad will happen

Many people will tend to avoid or escape from situations where they fear the worst will happen but this doesn't do anything to solve the problem. For example, if you are afraid of swimming then you might ask for the assistance of a friend to help you overcome your fear and ultimately your panic attacks. The path to recover starts when you truly start to realize that nothing bad has happened or will happen.

Recognizing these signs are important and is recommended that you see a doctor so they can rule out any physical conditions that may be triggering anxiety. Taking small steps towards facing your fears will slowly, but surely help you to overcome and conquer these episodes.

Abhishek Agarwal asked:


A particular level of separation anxiety is an expected and is a healthy part of normal development that occurs in all children to varying degrees between infancy and age 6. Healthy separation anxiety is typically first seen around 7-11 months of age, when an infant becomes anxious when meeting strangers (this is called stranger anxiety ). Children also may become mildly anxious around 18-24 months of age, when they are increasingly exploring their world but wanting to return to their caregiver frequently for security.

Contrary, children with separation anxiety disorder have separation worries that are excessive and much greater than their peers. These worries can overwhelm a child, even when they involve brief separations, such as leaving to go to school, going to sleep, or staying behind at home when a parent runs an errand. The child's fears may appear to be irrational, such as the fear that the parent may suddenly die or become ill.

Young people with separation anxiety disorder often go to great extremes to avoid being apart from their home or caregivers. They may protest against leaving a parent's side, refuse to play with friends, or complain about physical illness at the time of separating. Frequently, a child tolerates separation from one parent more easily than separation from the other parent.

Diagnosing separation anxiety disorder can be challenging because children with separation anxiety disorder may have more than one anxiety disorder. Children with separation anxiety disorder frequently have physical complaints, which also may need to be medically evaluated. A trained clinician (such as a child psychiatrist, child psychologist or pediatric neurologist) should integrate information from home, school, and the clinical visit to make a diagnosis.

At home, children with separation anxiety disorder may experience a combination of the symptoms listed below.

a) Frequent physical complaints at times of separating . Children with separation anxiety disorder often complain about stomach aches, headaches, or other physical discomforts when they know they will have to separate.

b) Terrifying dreams about being separated

c) Consistent and extreme worry and fear when separating from home or primary caregiver. Children also may be extremely frightened and worried when they anticipate separation and may be unwilling to be alone.

d) Difficulty sleeping alone . Children may insist that a parent sleep with them or may insist on sleeping with the parent in the parent's bed.

e) Recurrent worry and fear that something bad may happen to their parent or to themselves. They may worry about a parent becoming sick or getting hurt. They also may worry about getting lost if separated.

f) Refusal to attend school often develops, due to worries about separating

g) Refusal or reluctance to participate in ordinary outings or activities . The child may not want to go out to dinner, meet friends to play, or engage in after- school programs.

If left untreated, the condition may lead to considerable limitations in other areas of the child's life. Peer relationships, school functioning, and family functioning may suffer, or depression may develop. In some situations, if a child believes there is no way to reduce extreme anxiety, thoughts of self-harm or not wanting to be alive may develop. Professional help should be sought in such cases.
