Are you held prisoner by your panic attacks? Hypnotherapy in Ely and Newmarket

I work with many people who suffer with anxiety and panic attacks.

And if you suffer with anxiety and panic then you’ll know what a limiting effect they can have on your life as you try and avoid any situations which may cause them to strike.

You may have found that your panic attacks now control your life – you fear experiencing that level of fear again, especially in any situation where you feel out of control, you can’t get away quickly or where others may see you panic.

Many people with panic attacks also develop fears around losing control, panic symptoms and future panic attacks themselves.

However bad things may seem for you right now, things can gradually begin to feel calmer, safer and more manageable again.

 

Panic Restricts Your Life

Over time, many people with panic attacks begin changing their lives around the fear of panic itself.

You may start:

– avoiding places and cancelling plans
– avoiding travelling too far or insisting you drive
– needing to feel close to home and ‘safe’ places
– worrying about escape routes
– avoiding situations where panic may feel embarrassing

For some people, life gradually becomes smaller and more restricted as anxiety and panic begin controlling more decisions.

This can feel exhausting, frustrating and isolating. You get caught in the cycle of anxiety, worry, dread and avoidance.

But, like all patterns, your panic patterns can also change.

 

Why Panic Starts Controlling Life

One of the biggest difficulties with panic attacks is that people often become frightened of the panic itself.

The fear of the panic creates more anxiety and panic.

The fear of:

– another panic attack
– losing control
– physical symptoms
– embarrassment or being judged
– feeling trapped

can keep the nervous system constantly alert. Many people begin dreading the possibility of ever feeling that bad again.

This ongoing anticipation and avoidance often keeps the panic cycle going.

What People Say…

Many people who experience panic attacks worry that things will always feel this way.

But as anxiety patterns begin changing, many people notice improvements in:

– confidence
– freedom
– emotional resilience
– ability to relax
– everyday functioning

Here’s what two of my clients recently had to say after working with me to let go of their anxiety and panic attacks:

“I feel like my old confident self again. Dan is such a good listener and made me feel equipped to never have panic attacks sneak up on me again. I left each session looking forward to going out and living my life. Dan has taught me how to enjoy my life again and be in control, for that I am truly grateful.” Jean, Newmarket

“I knew I needed help after being on antidepressants for about 3 years and not feeling ‘right’ for years. I wanted to take control of my life and not have it run on tablets. Dan has helped me so much that now I am able to let light into my life, literally. I have gained in confidence and can now go ahead and enjoy my life.” Margaret, Chatteris

Panic attacks can feel overwhelming and can gradually begin affecting confidence, freedom and enjoyment of life.

But panic attacks are not dangerous, and many people find they become far less frightening once they understand what is happening and begin changing the fear patterns around them.

Support is available, and things can become more manageable again.
