  • Sudden and repeated panic attacks of overwhelming anxiety and fear
  • Feeling of being out of control during a panic attack
  • Intense worry about when the next attack will happen
  • Fear or avoidance of places where panic attacks have occurred in the past

Causes and Risk Factors

The exact cause of panic disorder is not fully understood, but it is believed to be a combination of genetic, biological, psychological, and environmental factors. Risk factors include a family history of panic disorder, major stress, a history of trauma, and certain changes in the way parts of the brain function.

Treatment Options for Panic Disorder at Refresh Recovery & Wellness

At Refresh Recovery & Wellness in Norwell, MA, we offer a range of evidence-based treatments for panic disorder, tailored to the unique needs of each individual. Our multidisciplinary team of professionals is dedicated to helping clients manage their symptoms and improve their quality of life.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT): CBT is particularly effective in treating panic disorder. It helps individuals identify and change negative thought patterns and behaviors that contribute to panic attacks. Exposure therapy, a type of CBT, involves gradual exposure to feared situations to reduce anxiety and panic.

Medication Management: Medications can be an effective component of panic disorder treatment. Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) and serotonin-norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors (SNRIs) are commonly prescribed to help reduce the symptoms of panic disorder. Benzodiazepines may be used for short-term relief of severe anxiety symptoms.

Mindfulness and Relaxation Techniques: Mindfulness practices, such as meditation and yoga, can help individuals manage panic disorder by promoting relaxation and present-moment awareness. Deep breathing exercises and progressive muscle relaxation are also effective techniques.

Supportive Care: Supportive care involves providing a safe and nurturing environment for individuals to explore their feelings and experiences. This may include individual therapy, group therapy, and family therapy to help build a support system.

Lifestyle and Wellness Strategies: Healthy lifestyle habits can significantly impact panic disorder symptoms. Regular physical activity, a balanced diet, sufficient sleep, and mindfulness practices can help improve overall well-being.
