An anxiety attack is a strong sensation that creates fear in oneself, as the symptoms can seem like you are actually dying. If you are someone who suffers from these kinds of attacks, it is important to know as much as you can about them as to help control them. Causes of Anxiety Attacks The cause of an anxiety attack can vary from person to person. Some have had success with a treatment known as EMDR [Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing]. This is a treatment that uses eye movements to discern information and reassign the way the brain processes it. Other alternative and natural panic attack natural remedy choices take the form in hypnosis, acupuncture and massage therapy. If possible try to exercise before bed, or at least sometime in the evening; even a short walk can be helpful. If the problem still persists, or just seems too frequent to be caused by just these issues, then it would definitely be wise to consult a doctor. If you are a frequent panic attack sufferer then you probably already have a normal physician. In fact one of the things a doctor will suggest to any newly diagnosed panic sufferer will be that they cut down on their alcohol consumption. The depressing effect of alcohol can lead to more frequent occurrences of panic. It can also lead to an increased chance of causing depression, which can just cause more problems for any panic sufferer. These events can either be in the past, in the present, or in the future so the time has little to do with the amount of “logical worry” that is applied. Sometimes children or teens worry about past events, conversations they may have had, upcoming events, school, friends, family, functions or any other possibility. Although panic attacks may seem to be random to some, there are actually a great number of factors and biochemical processes that occur during a panic attack that make it anything but chaotic at the outset. The human body actually reacts in a set number of stages, all of which help prepare the body and train it how to react.
