Stress at work and at home, tense environments, age-related changes in men and women contribute to the fact that more and more people are prone to panic attacks. In the article we will talk about the symptoms of this disease and the treatment proposed by A. Krasikov.
What is a panic attack
This is a sudden, unjustified deterioration in well-being, which is aggravated by causeless fear, suffocation, panic. Doctors may call this condition dystonia, neurosis or cardioneurosis, but the essence of the unpleasant phenomenon does not change.
Panic attacks are sudden. A person who has experienced this pathological condition once will constantly be in fear of a second attack, which clearly does not contribute to the quality of life. Here are the main signs of a panic attack:
- unexpected increase in heart rate and heart rate;
- feeling short of breath, difficulty breathing;
- excessive sweating;
- sudden fever or chills;
- feeling of trembling in the limbs or in the whole body, tingling or spasm;
- depressive heavy thoughts, fear of sudden death or losssanity;
- all-consuming panic, the state of "silent scream".
Many doctors believe that this pathological condition is not an independent disease, but a symptom. In this case, treatment involves finding / eliminating possible problems of the body (hormonal imbalance, vascular pathology, diabetes) and stopping them. The syndrome itself is treated with medication.
Dr. Alexei Krasikov sees the treatment of panic attacks in a completely different way. He believes that the destructive impact on the human body of these attacks can not only be minimized, but completely removed with the help of psychotherapy.
Who is Alexey Krasikov and what is the peculiarity of his treatment?
This doctor worked for a long time in the neurosis clinic. He is a practicing psychotherapist. He published many works in which the psychotherapist substantiates his theories. To trust him and whether to follow his proposed treatment option is a private matter for his patients. But while we dare and doubt, many start life without the fear of panic attacks.
Aleksey Krasikov in his video lectures promotes the theory that vegetative symptoms are not related to the environment, weather conditions, nutrition, circumstances, they are the consequences of internal emotions that a person experiences at the subconscious level. Being under the yoke of negative experiences, we unconsciously expose ourselves to the risk of falling ill with various disorders, including panic attacks. He suggests fighting panic attacks withnot pills, but self-awareness. Finding what worries him, gnaws, a person will find a weapon against his illness.
Reviews on Krasikov's methods
Many people doubt that Alexey Krasikov is a psychotherapist. The reviews are contradictory, it is difficult to immediately perceive his methodology, in which he gives the opportunity to recover entirely into the hands of the patient. We are used to the fact that the doctor will do everything for us, but with this disease this will not work. Only work on oneself, the search for internal, psychological problems and latent stresses will lead to a positive result. Unfortunately, there are side effects with any treatment. The main thing is to realize that treatment is needed, and it is in our power to get rid of fear and live a full-blooded life in which there is no place for panic attacks and fears.
