2. Introduction
People are experiencing an epidemic of mental health problems. It's possible to
attribute it to a bad lifestyle, but that's not always the case. Your mental health
issue gets worse if you don't talk about it. It becomes challenging to deal with
the issue once it spirals out of control. According psychologist you need to be
aware of panic attacks, which can appear to be extremely difficult to manage.
Relax, though—it can almost make you feel like your heart is going to explode.
Panic attacks can be dealt with in a healthy way.

3. How to Stop a Panic Attack
Adrenaline floods the body during a panic attack, causing a variety of physical,
mental, and emotional symptoms. We can show you how to calm yourself or a
loved one down and stop a panic attack, which can be a frightening experience.
You can currently help yourself overcome panic attacks by using the following
strategies:

4. 1. Find a peaceful spot
A panic attack can often be exacerbated by sights and sounds. Try to find a
quieter spot if you can. This could mean moving to lean against a nearby wall or
leaving a busy room.
It will be easier to concentrate on breathing and other coping mechanisms if you
sit in a quiet location, which will also give you some mental space.

5. 2. Take deep breaths
Breathing during a panic attack can be rapid, and chest tightness can make the
breaths shallow. This kind of breathing can exacerbate sentiments.
Instead, try to focus on each breath while taking a slow, deep breath. While
counting to four on both the inhale and the exhale take a deep breath from the
abdomen and slowly and steadily fill the lungs.

6. People can also try the "relaxing breath," also known as 4-7-8 breathing. The
person uses this method by inhaling for four seconds, holding their breath for
seven seconds, and then slowly exhaling for eight seconds.
It's important to remember that deep breathing can exacerbate panic attacks for
some people. In these instances, the individual may attempt to concentrate on
engaging in a hobby.

7. 3. Know that you got panic attack
As long as you are unaware that you are having a panic attack, it is beneficial.
When you realize that you are having a panic attack, you can take the necessary
steps to control it. You need to know that this time will pass for this reason.
Stopping a panic attack can be aided by maintaining emotional stability,
exercising emotional control, and removing the fear that something bad is about
to happen to you.

8. 4. Take any prescribed medications
A medication that can be taken as needed may be prescribed by psychologist,
depending on the severity of the attacks. Most of the time, these medicines work
quickly.
A beta-blocker or benzodiazepine can be found in some. A beta-blocker like
propranolol slows down a racing heart and lowers blood pressure.
Valium and Xanax are two examples of benzodiazepines that are frequently
prescribed by doctors for panic attacks.

9. However, people should only take these medications as prescribed by their
psychologist or doctor because they can be highly addictive. When taken with
alcohol or opioids, they can have potentially fatal side effects.
Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors, which can assist in preventing panic
attacks in the first place, may also be described by a physician.

10. What Are the Treatments for Panic
Attacks?
Throughout our lives, many of us may experience one or two brief panic attacks that do
not result in anything else. However, some people experience them more frequently.
Here are some immediate steps you can take to assist someone who you suspect is
having a panic attack:
Ask what you can do for them.
Reassure them that the attack probably won't last long.
Encourage them to breathe evenly and slowly.
Avoid downplaying their symptoms.

11. If they have ever experienced a panic attack, inquire about what helped them get
through it.
If you are unable to calm them, you should see a psychologist right away.
Depression, agoraphobia (fear of open or public spaces), or substance abuse may
result from multiple panic attacks. See a doctor if you've had multiple attacks. They can
be stopped a lot with treatment.
Psychologist doctors Most of the time, treat panic attacks by prescribing
psychological therapy, hypnotherapy, and medication. Try to be patient because the
path you and your doctor choose will take time to work. The vast majority of patients
experience relief and no long-term issues when they adhere to their treatment plan.
