First, we identified the root cause of my panic attacks, which was likely related to past traumas, current stressors, or other psychological issues. Once the root cause was identified, the therapist helped me develop coping strategies to manage the panic attacks. These strategies include
cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), which helps identify and change negative thought patterns that contribute to the attacks. I also do exposure therapy, which helps me confront my fears and anxiety triggers in a safe and controlled environment. And we work on relaxation techniques, such as deep breathing, so I can better manage my symptoms.
