At some point in our lives, most people experience stress, fear, anxiety or all of these. Although those are normal reactions in the face of life threatening situations, some people experience them more frequently than others do. Most people will experience terror in the event of an assault, violent situation, motor vehicle collision or another similar situation, but others experience it when dealing with their normal day-to-day activities. This condition is known as panic disorder and manifests in panic attacks. These episodes are not life threatening, though they may be experienced as such by the sufferer.

More often than not, you are reading this article because you are either suffering from panic attacks yourself, or someone that you love is having to deal with the various symptoms associated with this condition. The important thing is that you see your doctor to ensure that you have a condition and see what he or she suggests for treatment. At the same time though, you can naturally treat and conquer panic attacks to complement the treatment that your doctor suggested.

Although they generally are not a very significant issue, panic attacks are potentially a real problem for some individuals. They can range from mild to severe in intensity, and may or may not have an identifiable cause. There are treatments available to help those suffering and plenty of information on the topic for those interested.
