Now – not everyone who suffers with panic attacks will develop the “fear” of having a panic attack.

For some, it’s their only fear, for others, they may have other “situational” panic attacks (a situational panic attack is when a person experiences a panic attack from being in a certain place, or placed in a certain situation, an example of this would be, if you experience a panic attack every time you enter the shopping centre, usually these type of panic attacks occur repeatedly when a person is put in this same situation over and over again). Or you can have a combination of both.

However, a fear of a panic attack is just one big vicious cycle. You sit worrying “am I going to have a panic attack?” – “I don’t want to experience a panic attack, it frightens me”. Now you’re in the cycle of each panic attack feeding off the next!

One method I used to help me overcome this thought was squeezing stress balls and putting my full concentration on only the ball I was squeezing (sounds kinky I know, but it’s NOT ok? So get your mind out of the gutter) ;-)

Here is how I used to create my own stress balls.

Grab two balloons and cut them in half, fill them with rice and place the two bigger round parts together. Make sure you have filled them as full as you can so it pulls tightly around the balloons. This should be perfect fist size.

Ta-da – You now have your own stress ball!

A Quick Note From The Publisher... If you like the article above, you may be interested in the following article which is also related to Panic Attacks... Treatment to Panic Attacks Do any of these symptoms sound familiar to you during an anxiety or panic attack? Dizzy spells. Tightness in the throat or chest with shortness in breath. Your heart begins to start racing with tingle sensations. Worrying too much and thinking of unwanted issues. A fear that something horrifying is about to happen soon. These are all symptoms of what causes a panic or anxiety attack. Many people don't know where to turn when they have a panic or anxiety attack. Your first impulse is to call your doctor and maybe pay a visit to see what he or she has to say about your symptoms. Sometimes treatments by doctors may not work and they can also be very expensive. It's best to try home treatments which you can easily do on your own to see if that works before paying a visit to the doctor. One of the best ways to avoid a panic attack when you feel one is coming is by deep breathing and relaxation. Deep breathing is a very good way to relax yourself and make your body at ease. Getting rid of pressure and stress will allow you to avoid panic or anxiety attacks. Another way to try and treat panic attacks is to avoid situations where they are most likely to occur. Sometimes its almost impossible to avoid a situation, but for instance if you have been in the heat for a very long time outside, you may start to feel dizzy and thus a symptom of a panic attack. So you can avoid this by not spending so much time in the heat or make sure you have a cold rag to put around your neck and drink lots of fluids. This was just a simple example of how you can avoid situations that may cause a panic attack.
