1. A panic attack is a severe and inexplicable attack of fear, in which bodily reactions are observed.

Symptoms:

• Tachycardia and shivering
• excessive sweating
• Shortness of breath and shortness of breath
• Dizziness and weakness
• Derealization and depersonalization
• Nausea and discomfort
• Dizziness and hot flashes
• Fear of losing control

Panic attacks not only reduce the quality of life but also cause a number of addictions. Especially if they occur more than three times a year, a person may become addicted to alcohol or heavier substances to reduce symptoms.

Method 1

Try to distract yourself from the horror you are experiencing. Yes, it is very difficult, but this is the best-proven way to alleviate your condition. If you are distracted by games on your smartphone, play them, or write down the sensations in a notebook. In general, having a “disturbing notebook” where you will write down all your fears and anxieties is an effective method of self-regulation.

Method 2

Physical activity has a positive effect on the psyche. Try to go for a walk, or engage in any physical activity: jump in place, massage your earlobes. Try eating something spicy to distract yourself from a panic attack.

Method 3

Watch your breath. At the first panic attacks, start breathing in cycles: four for inhalation, four for holding the breath, and four for exhalation.
