Over the past year I have been having bad axiety/panic attacks. At first I thought I was having cardiovascular problems, or mental problems, sometimes thought I was going to die. Saw doctors and they couldn't figure out what was wrong with me-i was in perfect health. After doing my own research, all my symptoms matched up to having axiety/panic attacks. On the very web site I found home rememdies, because I did not want to go on perscription drugs. I started taking Niocinamide along with B6 and B12 viatims every day. I found excellent results in a matter of a few days and after about 2 or 3 weeks, I have been feeling great. I tried the cold shower thing too, doesnt work for me. I also find regular excercise works, and stay away from caffiene. I also drink socially, and I find if I have a couple too many, then next day I struggle a bit but the key is to stay occupied. stay away from hard spirits, I find they do a job on you if you do drink, stick with a couple of light beers if you are going to drink.I hope this helps, cause it has been a hard struggle for me for a while now, and was starting to effect my life, I know feel I'm my old self again. They say B viatims play an important role, so give it a try along with Niacinamide. I wish you luck.

I use scent to keep me relaxed. For me, smelling baby powder really works - crazy, but true. It forces my mind to remember a 'calmer' time, so to speak. Other scents might work too, but baby powder seems to be a calm memory for everyone. Try it - it might work for you while you're waiting the attack out.

There is a strong correlation between anxiety/panic disorder and low levels of certain vitamins and minerals. There are several things you can do to restore this balance in your body:

1. Take calcium, magnesium, and b-complex vitamin supplements

2. Avoid refined sugars and carbohydrates, and instead eat foods low in sugar and containing whole grains

3. Avoid coffee, tea, and cola sodas (or any other drinks with caffeine)

4. Avoid alcohol and drugs, as these tend to use up your bodies supply of important vitamins and minerals when your body metabolizes them

After reading the Linden Method and Trying every desperate medication attempt at a cure out there, I've found that the way you look at your attacks really does affect them. If you stop thinking of them as attacks and start thinking of them as symptoms of a badly trained body, its a little easier to cope. Face it, you've trained your body this way - both in how you react to the anxiety and how you subconciously think about it. It's a cruel reality, but once you realize it, its like a light at the end of a very long dark tunnel.

As for anxiety attacks that hit spontaneously (what I suffered from the most for 10 years) once you get your waking mind and your waking panic attacks under a sort of leash, these will slowly start to subside.

If you really care for your health and body, please dont ever ever ever take prescribed meds unless you're determined. Withdrawal is inevitable at some point with all of them, and it is NOT pretty.

I have experienced three severe panic attacks and lately several minor anxiety attacks. I have found a way to completely get calm myself down and eventually get rid of them. Every time i start to feel anxious, i let my body be aware of what it's feeling and tell myself, 'it's okay, it's normal to feel this way, i am not dying'. Let your body feel what it's feeling and the second you acknowledge that it's normal and okay to feel so, your heart rate calms down and so does your breathing. Don't be afraid of your body! You are in control! Always remind yourself of that. Talk to yourself if you have to.

Good Luck to everyone and i hope my remedy will work for at least one person. It is not easy but you have to take control of YOU!

If you consume artificial sweetners, stop! Splenda, Nutrisweet (Aspertame), and Sugar Alcohol should be avoided.

I think anyone with moderate to severe anxiety attacks for no apparent reason should be tested for celiac disease. I suffered with anxiety and depression for years and finally found out I'm allergic to wheat. Things are much better now that I'm on a gluten free diet.

I use Magnesium supplements like I would valium. It has such a calming effect for me. Magnesium Glycinate capsules in divided doses have virtually cured my anxiety attacks. There is alot of info on the internet. Serum magnesium tests are not very accurate I found.

take 500mg to 2000mg of niacinamide(not niacin) a day! google it and you'll find more then I can tell you. i've been taking it for about a week and it seems to be helping quite a bit already. it works the same way as valium and similar drugs without the side effects(its not a sedative). many people claim it works better then prescription drugs. Its about $6 for a bottle of 100 500mg caps!!! it could take up to a few weeks so be patient

I have suffered with panic disorder since 8th grade. What always helped me was exercise, especially push ups and sit ups, it helps get out alot of energy that builds up. Coffee is alright for me if I drink it only once a day, but if I drink it too close to the time I go to bed I can't sleep. So instead I would drink milk. Watch a ton of funny movies too, laughing makes you feel a lot better.
