Knowledge is key to getting help

There are so many things you can do to help yourself get through this and I'll tell you about my favourite book on the subject in a minute...

Now, you've probably already visited your local G.P. and that's a good move, just to check if there are any underlying health problems.

Your doctor may prescribe any number of over the counter drugs, like sedatives or Anti-Depressants some of the most common Benzodiazepines are...

Xanax (alprazolam)

Klonopin (clonazepam)

Valium (diazepam)

Ativan (lorazepam)

Natural Remedies

CBD (marijuana oil) may help to calm you down while you work through what is causing your anxiety. It's all natural and it doesn't have the "high" that people think it does, the "high" is caused through taking THC. (Tetrahydrocannabinol)

Here's an explanation on the different between CBD and THC

Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) and Cannabidiol (CBD) are the two primary Cannabinoids that occur naturally in the Cannabis sativa plant, commonly known as Cannabis. ... THC is the main psychoactive component of the Cannabis plant.

Both of these substances interact with the cannabinoid receptors found in the human body and brain, but they differ dramatically in their effects.

CBD is non-psychoactive which means that you will not get the "high" from CBD alone.

It's safe alternative and it will help to keep you calm.

You will also sleep much better at night.

Panic attacks while driving...

This is quite common, sometimes you'll be driving along in your car, not really thinking about anything in particular, you get stuck in traffic, you start to stress out, then the next thing you know you can't breathe!!

Your heart is racing along with your mind and you feel out of control.

The best thing to do is to turn your air conditioning on really cold and let the cool air hit your face, this will help you to breathe.

Take deep breaths in for the count of four and out for the count of eight. This will send more oxygen to your brain. Pull over if you can until you can get yourself back on track, ring a friend to talk you through it.

There are many great natural products out there that can help you.

• There are sound tracks that you can listen to when you're going off to sleep to quieten the mind, they are most helpful.
• You can also use Hypnotherapy, this will help you deal with the symptoms and help you work through the  underlying cause.
• You could visit a Therapist and work through the cause of it.

But the best thing that I've found so far to help is a very special book on the subject that has helped thousands of people already. You can read their testimonials and judge for yourself.
