What is an anxiety disorder or panic attack?

Anxiety Question:

What is an anxiety disorder or panic attack? Is there a cure for this?

Anxiety Answer:

Anxiety disorders are a group of psychiatric conditions that all have a common symptom (i.e. anxiety).

You'll hear about GAD (generalized anxiety disorder) on the TV sometimes. It is perhaps the most widespread of all anxiety disorders.

Phobias get a lot of attention, too (e.g. arachniphobia - the fear of spiders); they are members of the group of anxiety disorders.

Yes, there are treatments for all (and cures for most) anxiety disorders.

The best proven treatment for panic disorder is "cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT)". This involves learning what types of things can trigger your panic attacks so that, when a panic attack starts, you can control it and move on. There are also some anxiety medications to assist with this.

Dealing with Anxiety Advice

Loving my new career and life thanks to your CD's!

I am a college student, and although diagnosed with depression and social anxiety 2 years ago, I've suffered much longer. After getting nowhere with self-help books and websites, I knew I had to try something different. Luckily, I came across your website!

I have been listening to your "Dissolving Panic and Anxiety" CD's for over one year now of an evening and the results - remarkable! I am excited about every new day! My newfound confidence has led me to pursue a new career. I am going to give back and help others with the diseases that plagued me so horribly. The benefits of the CD's are clear. Thank you!!
