Panic attacks are sudden episodes of intense fear or anxiety of a rapid escalation normally present.
somatic and cognitive symptoms such as palpitations, sweating, sudden, tremor, feeling of choking, chest pain, nausea, fear of dying or going crazy, chills or hot flushes accompany panick attacks.
Those who have experienced them describe them as a terrible experience, often sudden and unexpected, at least the first time.
It's obvious that the fear of another attack immediately becomes strong and dominant.
The single episode, then, flows easily into a real panic disorder, more for "fear of fear" than anything else.
The person is quickly embroiled in a terrible vicious cycle that often carries the so-called "agoraphobia", or anxiety related to being in places or situations from which escape would be difficult or embarrassing to leave.
It becomes almost impossible to leave the house alone, traveling by train, bus or drive a car, being in a crowd, or in the queue, and so on.
To avoid all potentially anxiety-provoking situations becomes the dominant mode and the patient becomes the slave of his disorder, often forcing all family members to adapt, so do not leave it alone and to go with him everywhere, with the inevitable sense of frustration that comes from the fact of being "big and tall" but dependent on others, which can lead to secondary depression.
Recurrent panic attacks is the essential feature of Panic Disorder, unexpected, followed by at least 1 month of persistent concern about having another panic attack.
The possible implications or consequences of panic attacks are the person's main concerns and he changes his behavior as a result of attacks, mainly by avoiding feared situations where they can occur.
The first panic attack is usually unexpected, it manifests itself suddenly, so the subject is greatly frightened, and often resorts to the emergency room, then they become more predictable.
For the diagnosis requires at least two unexpected panic attacks, but most people have many more.
Individuals with panic disorder show features interpretations or concerns about the implications or consequences of panic attacks.
Concern for the next attack or its implications are often associated with the development of avoidance behavior that can lead to a real Agoraphobia, in which case they are diagnosed with panic disorder with agoraphobia.
Usually panic attacks are more frequent in stressful times.
Some life events may in fact act as precipitating factors, although not necessarily show a panic attack.
Among the events of life are the most commonly reported precipitating the separation, loss or illness of a significant person, the victim of some form of violence, financial problems and working.
Early attacks usually occur in situations agoraphobia (such as driving or traveling alone on a bus in the city) and in some contexts, however, often stressful.
Stressful events, situations, agoraphobia, the warm and humid climatic conditions, psychoactive drugs can in fact give rise to bodily sensations that can be interpreted in a catastrophic way, raising the risk of developing panic attacks and panic disorder.
