One of the most effective panic attack cures is learning to face your fears and embrace them.
Panic attacks are simply your body reacting to anxiety in the ways that you have been learning for all of your life.
When you face your fears head-on and learn to embrace them you dare anxiety to throw the very worst that it has at you.
This type of attitude will automatically defuse fear and give you a sense of power and control.
When you employ this panic attack cure you change your whole mindset.
You go from a crying, whimpering, shaking victim...
and you end up a strong, courageous, and willing participant of the ride that anxiety is soon to throw your way.
When you do this you start to just kind of go with the flow...
this makes your anxiety a lot less scary.
Embracing your fear also causes you to consciously work on your anxiety and on the thoughts that are causing it.
People typically try to fight the feelings of a panic attack...
which in turn causes more stress and anxiety.
Once you stop fighting your feelings and start embracing them you can easily pinpoint what is causing them and work on ways to deal with them.
Once you can get into this mindset your fear no longer has the power to take over all of your thoughts and emotions.
Convince yourself that you can handle any fears and anxieties that life can throw at you.
You have to be a little stubborn about this...
you cannot just think it and then forget about it.
At first you have to consistently remind yourself that fear cannot hurt you and that you do in fact want to feel it.
Eventually fear will take a backseat and this panic attack cure will start to bring back some of the confidence that you have lost.
As with every panic attack cure you may suffer a couple setbacks...
do not let the setbacks linger in your mind.
Every time you have a setback you are closer to beating your panic disorder.
Look at your setbacks as war wounds...
they only make you stronger and help you deal with panic and anxiety more effectively in the long run.
