Metamorphosis
Panic attacks or anxiety attacks, are the result of reaching a level of inappropriate anxiety at which Adrenalin, the hormone responsible for the anxiety reaction, is not used up by either fighting or fleeing. This causes an overreaction of normal anxiety symptoms due to stress or circumstances. Panic attacks sufferers often have ‘stress’ or ‘depression’ and then receive prescriptions for antidepressants or sedatives.
Panic attacks can cause a disturbing group of symptoms which cause the sufferer to fear the next attack and UNFORTUNATELY it is this fear of having another attack that causes them to have one!
