What is Panic Disorder?

Panic disorder is an anxiety disorder in which the patient experiences sudden fear, stress, and panic attacks. It is highly frightening to the patient as he loses his control. The patients remain worried about health, wealth, work, or family issues.

It is a chronic disorder but treatable as mild, moderate, or extreme. A person may experience a panic attack in a stressful situation, but recurrent panic attacks or the constant fear of having another attack is a panic disorder impacting the quality of life. In such a scenario, a medical expert must be consulted.

  • Knowing about the situations causing panic attacks 

The top verified doctors in Pakistan provide a complete diagnosis to determine an optimum treatment therapy.

Treatment for Panic Disorder

The goal of the treatment involves reducing the severity of the symptoms and the frequency of panic attacks. Common treatment methods for panic disorder include;

Psychological therapy: A psychologist may indulge you in cognitive behavioral or talk therapy to identify and manage your triggers, emotional state, stress, or other causes leading to the attacks.

Medication: Certain anti-depressants like selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors and anti-anxiety medicines like benzodiazepines may help relieve the symptoms of panic attacks and reduce their occurrence.

However, they may cause drug dependence.

In certain cases, anti-epileptics may also be prescribed to reduce symptoms like tremors and shivering. Other lifestyle changes that may help include;
