Putting a stop to panic attacks is something that a lot of people want to accomplish in their lives. After all, panic attacks are very problematic; they cause physical and psychological stress, they can ruin employment and relationships, and turn even the most outgoing person into a hermit. Unfortunately, stopping panic attacks can cause as much stress as the problem itself, what with all of the different drugs that can be prescribed, all of the different methods and the conflicting information. On top of that, there is the fact that a cure seem to change seasonally, so it can all be very hard to keep up with. However, what is beginning to emerge as a constant is that by placing some gentle control over your environment, you can take great strides in stopping it.
The first place you should look in order to stop panic attacks is your home environment. Do you eat a lot of high salt, high sugar, high fat foods? These things are not only bad for your weight, but also make you more easily stressed out due to poor health and poor self image. When you feel bad, you tend to feel as though the world is out to get you and so you are more likely to have panic attacks over things. You can cut down on this stress factor by eating foods that are good for lowering your blood pressure and improving your health such as turkey, chicken, bananas, and vegetables. These foods are not only good for dealing with your stress, but are also very good for your health too. Look for foods high in serotonin; the feel good hormone, in order to make your mind more relaxed.
The second thing you can do is exercise regularly, even if you just have time for a walk a day. Regular exercise gets more oxygen into your body and your blood pumping which makes you feel more relaxed. It will also help you to sleep better at night meaning that you'll wake up feeling less stress in the morning. Regular exercise is a great way to feel better about yourself too which will make you less inclined to panic about yourself and your lifestyle!
Finally, there are herbal supplements you can take. You should look for ones such as lemon balm teas or vitamins b6 to get the best benefits. Unfortunately, most 'herbal' supplements won't do the trick alone; they're best used in conjunction with a healthier lifestyle overall such as exercise, eating properly and quitting smoking, recreational drugs, and alcohol.
With a few lifestyle changes, you can learn how to stop panic attacks naturally and learn to enjoy your life again. Remember that panic attacks are psychological in nature and so by improving your body, mind, and soul, you can win your life back from the grips of panic attacks without the use of medication; something which so many are striving for today.
