What to do with, and before and instead of, a panic attack
A panic attack is accompanied by a malfunction in the heartbeat, difficulty breathing, and a violation of thermoregulation. The reasons for this state - uncontrolled, requiring action or, conversely, immobilizing - lie entirely in the field of the psyche. To get out of the constant circle of fears and panic attacks, it is necessary to deeply realize their causes, hidden in the psyche …
What is a panic attack
- Can I come to you? - Masha's uneven voice did not suggest a choice. - I cannot be alone, and my husband has a rush at work. I don't understand what's wrong with me, I feel very bad.
Masha was pale and smelled strongly of valerian. Her cold hands were shaking, and she was chilling.
We didn't do anything special, we just drank tea, talked. It helped.
Masha began to come every morning: the few hours between her husband's departure and the beginning of her working day at home alone were unbearable. Arriving, she could simply sleep on the couch in the office - the realization that there were people nearby made this possible. For some reason, even the native walls did not give comfort at home.
One such morning, when I was with Masha, my cat appeared, returning from a walk, and before our eyes began to writhe from some kind of spasms. Naturally, we rushed to look for a doctor, packed the animal in a carrier and flew to the clinic. Nothing terrible happened to the animal - one injection removed the terrible symptoms. But with all these troubles, Masha suddenly completely calmed down, relaxed, warmed up, even began to smile. Neither the next day nor after she did not come, she just called to ask how the kitty was.
Then I learned that that unbearable condition, accompanied by primitive horror, interruptions in breathing and heart rate - what my friend was experiencing - this is a panic attack. And we both already knew two answers to the question of what to do in a panic attack: the first is to be with people, and the second is to switch to someone who is worse off, who needs help and care. This variant of salvation from a panic attack, spontaneously proposed by life itself, actually ideally corresponds to the principles that are revealed at the training of Yuri Burlan "System-vector psychology".
Symptoms
Due to the long list of physiological symptoms of panic disorder, there has long been no single name for these conditions. The whole body is involved.
A panic attack is accompanied by a malfunction in the heartbeat, difficulty breathing, and a violation of thermoregulation. Someone falls into a stupor, someone's body requires immediate activity, but the main and common thing in all these conditions is:
- unfounded fear
- uncontrollable behavior,
- failure in self-regulation.
Moreover, the psychological component - the emotion of fear - is primary. Physiological symptoms are only temporary conditions that depend on an individual set of vectors. The reasons for this state - uncontrolled, requiring action or, conversely, immobilizing - lie entirely in the field of the psyche.
The absence of visible causes of panic attacks is only a consequence of our inability to observe the psyche. For the systems-vector view, the reasons are obvious.
Causes of Panic Attacks
People without a visual vector do not have panic attacks.
Sensual, attentive, impressionable, amorous and empathetic people with a visual vector are born today, like primitive spectators, with an innate fear of death. It is in the visual vector that the fear of death is the root of the psyche and the basis of the species role. This property - to be afraid - was formed in a person evolutionarily to preserve the species and, according to the laws of our world, developed into its opposite - love.
The first carriers of the visual vector, with their strongest emotion, saved the entire flock from death. A cry and a strong smell of fright from a skin-visual female who spotted a leopard mobilized the entire community, and our ancestors fled from the predator.
In the course of further development, it was on the basis of the fear of death that emotions, feelings and the whole culture were formed. For tens of thousands of years, the visual measure of our psyche has revealed as fully as possible, and today the self-realization of a person with a visual vector depends only on the level of his personal development and conscious choice. There is design, art, parenting, medicine, psychology with social work, and charity. All aesthetics and ethics are the domain of spectators.
There is no need to be scared to death today, life has developed and become more complicated, but the roots of our soul have remained the same. The fear of death, or fear of the dark, is actually the fear of being eaten. For a girl, this is the fear of being eaten by a predator, for a boy - a cannibal. The imprint of these fears has been preserved in our common psyche.
We once experienced this period with all our species, and now every single person with a visual vector goes through the same emotions in his personal childhood. And if for a visual child to be afraid of the dark, black hands and a predator is the norm from which he develops, then for an adult such experiences are always a marker of psychological trauma from childhood, severe stress or a lack of realization of visual talents.
A panic attack is a state of primitive fear of death in a spectator who wants to save himself at all costs, against the background of the absence of a real threat to life.
The strongest emotion is accompanied by a somatic reaction to stress, which objectively may not exist. It is enough that he is in the perception. The trigger can be anything, it is related to personal experience. The moment of the attack is unpredictable, since the mechanism is triggered in the unconscious.
To get out of the constant circle of fears and panic attacks, you need to deeply understand their causes, hidden in the psyche.
Whom to go to for treatment
So, who should the viewer go to in order to cope with panic horror and find peace? Let's see how it works by Nature.
-
To the most courageous - the leader!
In the primitive pack there was a role prepared for the most fearless, generous and magnanimous. The leader of the pack is its core and the guarantor of security. The urethral wall by its presence gave a feeling of security. By the way, the urethral leader is an ideal match for a skin-visual female. She is the most fearful, in need of safety, he is the most giving, exuding a sense of security and safety in the most literal sense - at the level of pheromones.
By the way, this is how love was born: in response to the security she received from a man, the spectator's feeling of fear was transformed into an equal in strength, but opposite in content.
But there are not enough leaders for all! How to be?

To the one who is not afraid of the dark, and even on the contrary, loves it - to the thinker.
For a visual coward, darkness, in which a predator cannot be seen, is equal to death from his teeth. The daytime visual guards of the flock have long been drawn to the night guards - the sound ones. Sound boys are still incredibly attractive for girls with a visual vector. Another perfect union. True, there is a risk, without understanding properly, to fall under the influence of a sound engineer who is not the most healthy. And get into a sect headed by another fanatic. By the way, he will also remove fears, but not disinterestedly: either he will lead him into false beliefs, or he will use them in his personal interests. Therefore, it is important to be attentive to the state of the thinker and to be able to distinguish the developed sound engineer from the undeveloped and the realized from the unrealized.

To the viewer.
Creative self-realization is already a higher level of filling with visual emotionality than the basic preservation of one's own life. Stage, cinema, painting, music - the living of feelings and their expression, evoking a response in the heart of the viewer, unites people and fills the artist with pleasure, which is a multiple of the strength of the given emotions and the scale of the audience. Creativity is an eternal and wonderful way to apply your innate emotionality, rich imagination and natural inclination to demonstrative behavior for the benefit of people and joy for yourself. To give all of yourself to the viewer means to be filled to the utmost. The fewer unlived emotions, the less chance of feeling fear and experiencing a panic state.

To the children.
The best educators are, of course, sensitive, kind and considerate people with a visual vector. A certain level of development is required in order to devote oneself to the younger generation, and if it is sufficient, then the work of the educator brings genuine pleasure. How Can Children Protect Against Panic Attacks?
Children are the perfect, almost bottomless well to fill with attention, understanding, intonation, smiles and ideas. The future is a priority for nature. And for a person too. Therefore, for a normal adult, a child next to him is more than himself. An adult in such a situation automatically forgets about himself - and is no longer afraid.
When going to children, it is important not to confuse caring for them and relieving stress. Tantrums and swearing are not education.
-
To the weakest and most vulnerable - the elderly and disabled.
In this case, it would be more correct to say not "go", but "take off". The highest degree of compassion - the most human emotion - completely eliminates the possibility of fear for oneself. What is the nature of fearlessness in the same urethral leader? He is from birth aimed at preserving not himself, but others. The preservation of the larger is always a priority over the small private, and in each vector development follows the path of increasing the scale of returns. In the visual vector, the maximum form of giving oneself to people is sacrifice, which makes the devotion of time, energy, emotions a holiday to those who cannot even thank them. That was Dr. Lisa.
Selfless help to those who are unable to take care of themselves on their own is an ideal chance to realize themselves.
Going into charity and volunteering, it is important to realize: this is done unselfishly, at the behest of the soul - or as a bargain and exchange, albeit intangible. When we expect a reward, we are guaranteed to be disappointed.

Just to people.
A common talent and desire for all visual people is the creation of emotional connections. The creation of sensory connections for a person with a visual vector is as necessary as breathing. All visual people, without exception, have this ability, regardless of the level to which they managed to develop their vector. The more of them and the deeper they are, the more comfortable and happier a person lives. They fill the soul and heal from panic disorders.
It is important to create connections not with things, flowers and cats, but with people. Flowers, although they seem safer, but under no circumstances will they give the joy that we experience from soul-to-soul communication.
Any of these natural pathways will help you get rid of your fear of death.
How to handle it yourself
What to do with a panic attack? How to stop panic?
A panic attack has begun, what to do at the moment of an attack? Concentration on something else helps even those who do not own system-vector thinking. To many, this method is suggested by chance. You can observe people, try to understand them and the relationship between them, you can try to determine the character of a person. It is important to include feelings, and not just attention to detail - recounting the buttons on someone else's coat will remove the focus from oneself, but this is only a half measure. The visual vector is primarily emotions. The opposite of fear is feelings.
The more we are able to focus on the soul of another, the sooner the panic attack will recede. The ideal option is to direct sympathy and compassion to someone, it is better to be active, although sincerely worrying and crying for someone will help too. When we are busy with the pain of another, we simply have nothing to fear for ourselves and there is no place for panic. Someone has enough sympathy for the cat, but we also have access to a higher level - the human one.
The same flights stop triggering panic when a woman flies with a child. There are many such observations. The answer is to focus - not on yourself, but on your neighbor.
What to do with a panic attack at home? Everything is the same as in any other conditions. Be aware of your condition, focus on others - not necessarily those who are nearby. Communication, television, literature, imagination, or memory can be connected. The main thing is to direct all your attention and all your feelings to the other person.
Olga, a physician by training, experienced panic attacks for many years with every takeoff and every landing of the plane. And she flew often - the family business was conducted between Russia and America. She saved herself with some pills, if she was not flying alone, she held on to her companion's hand. The first non-panic landing was due to a passenger who had a heart attack. Being the only professional doctor on board, Olya provided possible assistance and did not notice in caring for a random patient as she flew home. There was no panic attack.
How to prevent panic attacks
The visual measure is the source of universal human emotionality. This colossal volume - the emotions of humanity - has been transformed over a thousand-year evolution from immobilizing primitive horror to universal self-sacrifice.
Opportunities for self-realization are endless today, and understanding your desires makes it possible to navigate and find your way. If there is a visual vector, then there are desires, if there are desires, then there are abilities. Which must be applied, because desires do not go anywhere and, forgotten, unconsciously attack us.
The good news is that every desire is an opportunity to receive pleasure. A panic attack in this sense is a signal that we are not receiving a very significant joy, and it lies in the area of compassion and love.
The spectrum of possible realization of visual properties is wide - from fashion to charity, from travel to medicine, from shedding tears over a book to spreading charitable ideas to the whole world. And connections, connections, connections - naturally, emotional. Find yourself in the soul coordinate system and be happy!
PS By the way, it soon became clear what contributed to the appearance of panic attacks in my talented friend Masha. For a long time she looked after the neighbor's granny. Every day she visited, brought purchases, talked - took an active part in her life. At some point, the old woman took her daughter to her - and Masha had nowhere to put her kindness to. Neither painting, nor clients with friends gave the realization that disinterested help gave to a defenseless person.
