Panic attacks are often common when we have a sudden burst of fear and anxiety. This is caused by the body's natural reflex to prepare for a 'fight or flight' situation and this subconsciously triggers a set of physiological reflexes (as well as disturbing and fearful thoughts). One of these physical reflexes include the stimulation of the adrenal hormone by the adrenal glands. The released adrenalin (when triggered appropriately) can ensure survival in a life or death situation. This reaction is usually for a good purpose but sometimes it has the ability to cause trouble (especially when one is know to either have a low 'trigger threshold' for the attacks or a slow recovery from them). When it happens too frequently it can sometimes become difficult to manage or regulate. It may give you a feeling of being completely out of control as these attacks seem to appear out of nowhere and usually leave you confused and fearful of a repeat-performance (not to mention all the thoughts that come about as it is occurring). Attacks can seep into and disrupt many different areas of your life (including social and professional) and are seen as a great nuisance, but with these following tips you'll be able to give these annoying reactions a run for their money.
