You’re Suffering A Panic Attack – How Do You Know?
Anxiety attacks, or panic attacks as they are more or less the same thing, are on the increase. Who knows whether it's our modern more stressful way of life or not. But the fact remains they are causing more and more people no end of problems.
Would you recognise a panic attack if you had one? That's a difficult question to answer as the symptoms are quite wide ranging and can vary from mild to the downright frightening. You may just experience a hot sweat or you may experience an attack where you can't breath and your heart races out of control.
I think if you were having the more serious symptoms you would know you needed some type of help. But you could also be having mild symptoms and not even know it's an anxiety related attack. Mild symptoms could be a sign that you are heading for something much worse sooner rather than later.
My wife suffered a bad panic attack while she was out driving our car. It wasn't the fact she had suffered an attack that hit her worst, but the fact she could easily have hit and killed someone or maybe even herself. It won't do anyone any good to dwell on this type of scenario.
If you've been having a few strange moments lately, maybe even experiencing one or more of the following... Fidgeting, feeling irritated, hard to sleep, on edge or anxious or lack of concentration. Any of these small signs could be a forewarning that something else is about to hit you.
Let me put you at ease a little before you actually break out and have an attack. Many things can cause symptoms like the above symptoms. And none of them are anything to worry about. Lack of sleep may just be too much caffeine. Fidgeting may be uncomfortable clothing.
However if you think you may want to delve further and check out if you are a potential anxiety attack victim. Taking an anxiety symptoms test can give you a much clearer idea of your risk. All you do is tick a few boxes with either yes or no and total your score at the end.
Then you can decide if you need to take further action. Take the anxiety symptoms test here.
