Several simple methods to protect yourself from a panic attack

Between the attacks, people are overtaken by a kind of anxiety and worry that the attack will repeat itself. This groundless fear has often become the reason for another attack. Panic attack greatly influences (mostly negative) the daily life of the patient.

Firstly, it is essential to realize the most important thing – during such attacks you’re not under a real threat and in fact, you can control the process itself.

National Center of Surgery’s neurologist, doctor of medical science, Tatuli Gubelaadze discuses panic attack prevention methods.

Neurologist advises:

• Breathing exercises are useful;
• Relax your muscles;
• Distract your mind. For example, clean the house, plant a plant, read a book, listen to the pleasant melody and so on.
• Do not worry, relax;
• Say no to alcohol and cigarette;
• Reduce caffeine-containing beverages and products intake to a minimum;
• Be cautious around the consumption of medication that influences the central nervous system.  
• Avoid physical and mental fatigue;
• Don't cut down on night's peaceful sleep.
