CBT for panic attacks

CBT for panic attacks

Have you ever been just sitting and minding your own business when you are hit by a sudden rush of anxiety and panic? Your heart starts to race, your body begins to shake, your knees go weak and you feel dizzy and out of control. You are sure that there is something wrong with you and that you are going to have a heart attack, faint or lose control. You are not on your own. These are all the key signs of panic attacks and if these symptoms persist you may meet the criteria for panic disorder.


CBT for panic attacks

Panic attacks are extremely common but can be incredibly debilitating and scary. Sometime people become so scared of having a panic attack they restrict their lifestyles - avoiding places they fear might induce a panic attack and becoming increasingly more isolated. This can lead to agoraphobia - anxiety about being in places from which escape might be difficult.


CBT for panic attacks

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy is one of the most successful ways to treat both panic attacks and agoraphobia. CBT aims to identify the triggers (either internal or external) how these are being seen as threatening, how this effects our body (the physical symptoms we experience) and the meaning we then give to those symptoms such as "I'm having a heart attack" "I'm going to pass out" or "I'm going to lose control".


CBT for panic attacks

The aim of CBT it to highlight the cycle of panic that maintains the problem:


For example - Going outside (external trigger) - start to think "What if I panic?" - feel scared and anxious - body starts to sweat, heart races, feeling dizzy, feel like I'm not really here - start to think these symptoms mean I am losing control, there must be something seriously wrong with me.


Once this cycle has been explored therapy will then work to reduce the power of this cycle and finally to break it all together.
