studies have led me to Serotonin. Serotonin affects your intestines, your brain and your blood platelets.

Well, that’s a good question, though the reason you are asking it is because your anxiety makes you search for answers. If you just accepted the panic attack and would not fear it, you would cure your panic disorder. Well since you are asking, the answer is this: as I posted earlier, the secret of our brains

Talking treatments work best if you can get referred by your doctor. The important thing is realising you have a problem and doing something about it. It’s hard work but with willpower overcoming panic attacks is definately possible.

When I had my first panic attack some 25 years ago and I was convinced by an anxiety specialist that I would have to take drugs the rest of my life, to deal with panic and anxiety just like the book the Anxiety Disease had proclaimed. I took Klonopin and a variety of antidepressants as the doctor stated “just like a diabetic would take insulin”. The drugs started to lose their effectiveness and put me in a stupor that made writing a simple paragraph a chore. With the invention of the internet and my research abilities, I made passion to find out what really caused anxiety and panic disorder a perhaps a chemical imbalance of Serotonin, GABA, Dopamine or some other neurotransmitter, it became an obsession mine, since I worked as a financial analyst and I never left a stone unturned. I never found in 40 years of studies that there is no scientific evidence that a chemical balance causes panic disorder. There are some hypotheses about what might cause panic attacks but there is no evidence that any drug will ever cure anxiety of panic disorder in spite of the biased studies from pharmaceutical companies.
Finally, after much introspection, I became fully convinced of the following; the drugs that I was taking were making me worse than I ever felt before I started taking them. That left me with one alternative, find the secret of how people had recovered from panic and anxiety truly recovered and were symptom free. The answer was simple, accept that anxiety was no more than a feeling after truly excepting that concept; I felt a sense of empowerment, and the ability to deal with anxiety become easier. I then read Panic Away and the Linden method and decided to follow those methods to a T. The Linden Method also had one part that seemed to change my life for good it actually stated that the use of benzodiazepines and the tolerance I developed to Klonopin actually hindered my recovery. I slowly withdrew from the drugs and it was the most difficult thing I had ever done. About 9 months after my withdraw I began to better and no longer suffered from depression and panic attacks , at 16 months I woke up one morning and felt like my old self again, before I ever had a panic attack. I then slowly withdrew from Paxil and today I feel totally cured. My story is simple follow find a behavioral therapy method that focuses what anxiety really is “a feeling”, do your relaxation exercises, breathing techniques, and stop thinking it is a chemical imbalance and you will be cured just like I am today…I do not sell snake skin oil but, I am very much a realist.

Wow this article is quite pessimistic. There no such thing as a cure for panic and anxiety, because guess what? We need it to survive. It’s been the most basic feature of human beings for the past couple thousand years. In fact if you were cured of anxiety and panic you probably wouldn’t do anything at all, but sit around staring at a wall.

Now what we’re talking about here is getting over the irrational fears that cause panic attacks where they’re not welcome. Can they be overcome? Yep. Once you face your fears and move through them they aren’t going to have the same grip on you as before.

Everybody is afraid of something, just not everyone expresses it the same way or in the same degrees.

But I do agree with the post about snake oil salemans preying on the desperate.
