If you've ever had a panic attack, you know what it feels like. It's one of the worst mental and physical experiences that you can have.
Contrary to what people will tell you, you can't stop or prevent a panic attack by "just calming down", buying herbal tea from some dubious supplement company, or doing some meditation that a search engine randomly threw at you.
The best option to manage panic attacks is some combination of therapy, lifestyle changes, and possibly medication (if your mental health professional says so). In fact, therapists have developed specific step-by-step strategies for recognizing your triggers, understanding when a panic attack is approaching, and managing your symptoms in a public space. And this book will teach you how to apply them. Specially designed breathing exercises and mindfulness practices are guaranteed to improve your symptoms
Here's what you'll learn:How to recognize and understand your triggers so that you'll be able to discuss them with your loved ones and mental health professionals
Techniques to observe your own behavior during a panic attack (this is the first step towards calming down)
Tips and tricks for surviving a panic attack in a public place
How to talk to your loved ones about your panic attacks
And much, much more
Some people who've never experienced panic attacks will say that "it's in your head" and that you're just being ridiculously nervous. Such remarks can be very discouraging, but remember that these people have literally no idea of what they're talking about
The coping strategies you'll discover in this book will help you reduce the frequency of panic attacks and calm down faster if an attack does occur. Don't let your anxiety and panic control your life.
