Panic attacks, which incidentally are much the same as anxiety attack, will come quickly, and with a vengeance. They will strike you totally out of the blue. If you are a sufferer I’m sure you would give anything to stop them dead. Your wish could be granted.
Hit Like A Train
My wife was hit with a very severe panic attack while she was driving the car. This could have been a disaster if she had crashed, or crashed into someone. When we both got over the shock, and let me tell you I was as shocked as her. We went to visit our doctor.
We got a standard lesson on the facts. Nothing to worry about, never in any real danger etc etc. Then we got a prescription for beta blockers. I say “we” because even though it was my wife having it, I was feeling like part of it all. If that makes any sense. The drugs would slow her heart rate and stop the onset of the attacks, fingers crossed.
We went for a drive and at the exact same location she felt an attack coming. The upshot was, she had a full blown panic attack. Albeit without the racing heart rate. She described it as worse than normal as she felt both out of control and calm at the same time.
Stick The Drugs In The Trash
I drove us home and we threw the drugs into the trash. A full 9 months went by and she never drove the car once. She never had a panic attack either, which was a mixed blessing.
We decided we couldn’t carry on like this; her not being able to drive was now causing real problems. I constantly searched the internet for help and advice, and to be honest, hopefully a magic cure. None of them worked properly, at least not for us.
We Tried Hundreds…And Then Some
We then happened across yet another “method” to supposedly stop them. As we had tried everything we found so far we tried this also. Initial results were ok. We knew any success was because of the method and not the drugs, which she wasn’t taking. The first attempt at driving and she got the overwhelming senses of an attack coming. She put the system into gear and managed to come out unscathed. So far so good.
In our debriefing session later she said that although there was a panic attack, it was no where near as bad as before because of the new system. Just knowing she had been able to lower the intensity was a huge boost in itself. She was sure that next time she had an attack she had the tools to halt it in its tracks, although it didn’t work out as good as that.
Bit By Bit
Again though, she managed to lessen its effects. She did this every time it happened. She made it less and less every time. Pretty quickly she got to the stage where she can recognise the signs and stop it dead in its tracks.
If panic attacks are the bane of your life you can either do nothing, or see your doctor and try some form of medication. Either way there’s a good chance you won’t get better any time soon.
