Does a panic attack sufferer require medication to be cured from having future panic episodes? Is there a natural panic attack remedy such as taking herbs, vitamins, and certain foods that are better and safer than pharmaceuticals? An equally important question is what role therapy and counseling should play in helping people cope with panic attacks and be cured? And finally, must a panic attack sufferer spend hundreds or even thousands of dollars going to therapy or is there a less expensive, but equally effective alternative?

I will attempt to answer some of these questions in the next few paragraphs.

Medications for panic attacks are often used to control the symptoms, reduce their number & severity, and diminish the fear & anxiety associated with the possibility of having another attack. Medications are most effective if they are used along with counseling and/or home treatment, such as relaxation exercises and panic education.

Medication for Panic Attacks

Medications used most often to treat panic attacks include the following:

*Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) such as Prozac, Zoloft, or Paxil

*Benzodiazepines including Xanax, Valium, Ativan, or Klonopin

It has been proven in many, many real life case studies of preventing recurring panic attack episodes without ever having to go on medication. Medication to cope with panic attacks is certainly not always necessary. I personally believe a sufferer should try first to deal with the issue without meds., unless of course the anxiety is so out of control that something must done immediately to relieve the sufferer of their physical symptoms. Medications do not typically address the root of the problem, but rather help pacify these symptoms. A panic attack natural remedy generally also creates less side effects than chemical medications.

A panic attack natural remedy such as herbs and over-the-counter supplements are used by many people to counteract anxiety and potentially prevent panic attacks. A common recommendation by vitamin specialists is normally a calcium & magnesium supplement, since deficiency in these minerals can increase the likelihood of a panic attack Vitamin B6 is also often recommended, as are herbal teas мейд with passion flower, valerian root, and lemon balm. Chamomile tea is commonly used to reduce stress, promote relaxation and restful sleep, & reduce inflammation. Finally, evidence supports that having low blood sugar can increase the likelihood of triggering a panic attack if one is already prone.

A panic attack natural remedy still does not deal head-on with the root of why the panic attack is occurring in the first place. Some type of therapy or counseling can be very good for discovering and then dealing with these issues. However, just because we use the word "counseling", it doesn't mean that you must go sit in an office and pay a lot of money for a private therapist. Besides being very expensive, private counseling also requires that you find the right therapist for you. One can receive high quality "counseling" from reading a book, getting familial support, or doing some home study therapy.

What I recommend first to panic attack sufferers as a very affordable option ($30 to $140 one time cost), which has been proven to be effective for many people is starting a home therapy & counseling program, combined with taking a panic attack natural remedy. These home programs typically offer either audio or video therapy/lessons, with written materials, and some simple exercises. The material educates you with an in-depth understanding of panic attacks and anxiety, bringing you through a personal journey to learn ways to become cured. They treat the roots of your panic and anxiety.

There are a number of available high quality home therapy programs that have already been used and tested by tens of thousands of people and have successfully cured many of them from their anxiety and panic attacks. Written, audio, and video testimonials are readily available as proof of this.
