QUIT PANIC ATTACKS

COMPLETELY

FOR EVER

Just As I Did.  Over Thirty Years Ago

       

Here's My Personal Story .... From Panic to Recovery  

I suffered panic attacks for nine long, miserable, years. My GP sent me to all manner of consultants and they all said the same thing. 'I can find nothing wrong with you'.

All tests, examinations and x-rays proved negative. One consultant even said that I was a hypochondriac. I knew that wasn’t true. I knew I was physically ill. Yet no-one believed me. Until…..

I was referred to the late Dr Claude Lum, a respiratory consultant. And when the day dawned for my appointment, I can tell you that the only reason I attended was out of sheer curiosity. I really had no hope of a positive outcome from such a visit because, well, what connection could there possibly be between a respiratory consultant and panic attacks?

I quickly found out. 

Dr Lum diagnosed that I was suffering from Chronic Habitual Hyperventilation Syndrome (HVS). A debilitating, insidious illness caused through  breathing in a dysfunctional way.

It sounds really off the wall doesn’t it? Yet I’m living proof that panic attacks and dozens of other seemingly inexplicable symptoms are caused through an incorrect breathing pattern.

I diligently followed Dr. Lum's breathing re-training programme and my panic attacks gradually disappeared.

I HAVEN’T HAD A PANIC ATTACK IN OVER THIRTY YEARS

So there you have it. My exciting journey from panic to recovery. And I really want to help you along your exciting journey to A Panic Free Life.

FIRST, TAKE A CLOSE LOOK AT THE FOLLOWING . . . . .

Panic attacks
Physical or mental depression                                                                                                                  Inexplicable pain in chest                                                                                                                        Inexplicable pain in limbs                                                                                                                                      Free-floating anxiety
Spaced out feelings
Acute tiredness, lethargy and weakness
Stomach disturbances
Frequent migraine or bad headaches
Palpitations and/or rapid heartbeat
Disturbed sleep
Agoraphobia
Claustrophobia
Lack of concentration
Memory deficiency
Faintness or fainting fits
Excessive yawning and sighing                                                                                                                      Generally feeling unwell

Are you experiencing any of the above symptoms?  Although the list is by no means comprehensive, it covers symptoms generally encountered.  Individuals may experience several symptoms; panic attacks often being most prevalent -

And the cause of these miserable symptoms? An incorrect breathing pattern. 

Yes, that's right.  An incorrect breathing pattern causes panic attacks.

Now, I guess you may think, just as I did, that this is too strange to be believed. How can breathing in and out, in and out, in and out,  have anything to do with panic attacks - indeed, how can 'simply breathing' be responsible for any of those symptoms listed above?

Well now, here's the rub. Breathing  isn't as simple as 'in and out'. There's a right way teo breathe and a wrong way to breathe. Breathing correctly (from the diaphragm) promotes health and wellbeing. Breathing incorrectly (from the upper chest) promotes health difficulties.

Here's why:  Breathing in a dysfunctional manner alters the balance of oxygen and carbon dioxide in the blood. As dysfunctional breathing continues, symptoms can appear in any organ in the body, which are capable of masquerading as life threatening illnesses, such as cancer, heart condition, etc.

Q. How is it that so many medical practitioners are unaware of this conundrum?

A. Because this insidious condition (known as Chronic Habitual Hyperventilation Syndrome. HVS for short) will never show up in tests, scans, examinations of any kind. As dysfunctional breathing continues, so does the likelihood of more symptoms developing and deepening.
