Clinical Research Studies of Panic Disorders
from:Clinical research studies of panic disorders are happening continually as medical science searches for better treatment alternatives. The studies don’t just concentrate on obvious methods such as medication. They also study the impact of specific activities and psychological counseling on panic disorders.
There are many areas clinical research studies of panic disorders have addressed. For example, studies have found that breathing can be correlated to your level of anxiousness. People who are outgoing and don’t engage in excessive and unjustified worrying usually breathe deeper than someone who is a constant worrier. So the studies focus on whether improving breathing techniques is an effective treatment for panic disorders. This is usually included as part of a program teaching relaxation.
Clinical research studies of panic disorders have also studied the physical reactions resulting from panic disorders. The good news is there is usually no long lasting physical damage resulting from panic attacks. Physical problems that occur are because of the ongoing stress and anxiety level, but not the attack itself. So when you learn to reduce your worrying and anxiety, you get two benefits. You can lower your stress level and reduce the impact stress has on your body including your cardiovascular system.
Another area of research that is expanding is in the area of the relationship between panic disorders and nutrition. Clinical research studies of panic disorders are trying to learn if panic attacks can be prevented or lessened in number by adding or limiting certain foods. For example, it’s common practice now to advise people with panic disorders to eliminate caffeine. But new studies are looking at the impact of things like hormones added to meat during production and excessive sugar intake.
• Other clinical research studies of panic disorders are investigating the following.
• Certain physical conditions that may cause panic disorders – thyroid imbalance, yeast syndrome, PMS etc.
• Impact of exercise on reduction of panic disorder occurrences
• Use of medications
• Use of visualization to prevent panic attacks
The most state-of-the-art clinical research studies of panic disorders are focusing on different therapies that teach people how to control their thoughts. It’s believed that many panic attacks are caused by people’s thoughts that focus on events or worries that may not even happen. In other words, they worry themselves into a panic attack. The studies also are searching for ways to help people control the onset or progress of panic attacks when they occur. One of the techniques used is recreating the symptoms by having the person do something that results in similar reactions as those experienced during panic attacks. For example, if you get dizzy during panic attacks, then you would spin around until you get dizzy. This enables you to learn not to fear the panic attacks and thus keep them under control.
Current clinical research studies of panic disorders are making important progress finding ways to help people who experience panic attacks.
