Anxiety and panic attacks are very common among individuals experiencing swift upsurge of emotions.
While the symptoms of both anxiety and panic attacks are somewhat interconnected.
They are actually in fact not one and the same.
So to distinguish here are few instances that will enable you to differentiate anxiety disorder from panic disorder.
1.
Panic attack is predictable.
In contrast to anxiety attacks, which occur unexpectedly, the attacks are predictable especially when the person is in the middle of a continuing emotional condition.
Because we can be certain when an attack will occur, we will be able to take hold of our emotions and relax just before the attacks.
2.
The attacks occur for just one reason.
It could be extreme happiness, depression, frustration or even anger.
While anxiety attacks may occur even without any extreme emotions (for example: You just feel sad about something).
3.
Anxiety attacks can also be brought about by certain medical condition and previous disorders.
It should be put in mind that these attacks along with disorders may also be caused by mounting emotions that can be trace down to particular conditions.
Anxiety attacks on the other hand may only be just cause by hormonal imbalance as well as earlier medical conditions even without the necessity of an emotional outpouring.
Nonetheless when panic conditions become regular and cannot anymore be controlled, this may lead to ensuing anxiety disorders.
4.
Panics are manageable.
Nearly all type of panic attacks are manageable even without any medications.
All that is required is to take control of emotions.
Medical treatments should only be undertaken when the attacks become regular and begins to disturb the life of the person suffering.
There is nothing to worry about anxiety or panic because it can be treated.
