How do you deal with a panic attack and is there anything you can do beside taking medication?
I don’t know exactly what it is, but from reading and researching, I think it is what you all called panic attack and it happened to me quite often lately. I sometimes just sat and thought of something and that all it took, I started to panic and my body started to get hot and sweaty. So weird and very scary. It’s like whatever I thought of, trying to take control of my body and my mind. Like the other day, I was in the dentist office, after getting the shot, my body started to shake and I panic. I felt like I was going to die. I had to go to the bathroom and calmed myself down. Or sometimes even a simple thing like thinking about my breaking up and not being able to see my girlfriend anymore… But what would happen if I couldn’t calm myself down ? Is this condition related to not being fit (lack of endorphine)? Is this normal, I mean, does it happen to everyone? What is the best way to deal with it, because I don’t like to depend on medication if I can help it. Please help !

It doesn’t happen to *everyone* but panic attacks aren’t uncommon. You can try deep breathing, meditation, and positive visualization.
But, it would be best to get a checkup with a doctor anyway, just to rule out any physiological causes. Good luck.

wow. thats insane.. i myself was just signed on looking for an answer on how to deal with panic attacks. i get them sometimes.. they drive me insane. i try to just talk to myself and tell myself tht everything is going to be alright. it usually works. talk to people. they can help u calm down and realize that there really isnt too much to worry about and that everything will be alright! u just have to believe in ureself, and realize that God or who ever you believe in has a plan for u no matter what, and whatevr happens happens for a reason.

I used to have them so bad that I couldn’t go anywhere. Therapy can help. Learn to relax and focus on positive outcomes. Xanax is good too if you don’t run out.
