Anxiety & Panic Disorder Treatment
Advanced Natural Medicine has wide-ranging clinical applications in mental health care and psychological conditions.
THIS TREATMENT’S AIM IS TO GREATLY IMPROVE AND ERADICATE ANXIETY & PANIC DISORDER
I have been devoting many years researching the latest methods in Natural Medicine for Anxiety & Panic Disorder, and have found that the results have been extremely good. Much of my post-grad studies have been in this direction. Its a special interest of mine, and its been very satisfying to see so many major improvements in my patients whom I’ve been treating for Anxiety & Panic Disorder.
So why consider Natural Medicine for Anxiety & Panic Disorder?
Most people with this condition find that many chemical drug treatments are not very effective, and therefore would like a successful alternative. Conventional psychiatric drugs often have side effects. This has caused many people to seek assistance outside the mainstream realm of therapy.
In fact in my 25 years of experience, conducting over 45,000 consultations I have found the most deeply acting & most effective system of medicine for Anxiety & Panic Disorder is Advanced Homoeopathy. There are many different Rare Plant & Natural Element Medicines which can be safely used, with very satisfying results.
Homoeopathy in my experience is the most advanced & complex system of Natural Medicine. This branch of medicine originally & historically (before Big Profit-Pharma’s influential control) became very well-known because of the excellent results which were achieved in Homeopathic Psychiatric Hospitals.
What’s the major Difference in these two systems of medicine?
Basically, Big-Pharma wants everyone on their drugs for life. Homoeopathy wants you cured. I could write pages on this subject, however not to digress.
Darren Grech incorporates contemporary methods in treatment using the latest in Natural Medicine. During a consultation you will have the opportunity to explain your problems in depth. The treatment is fully individualised as no two people’s condition is exactly the same and needs a different Natural Medicine. (This is not an Over-The-Counter style of supplements- this is very different to that. This treatment is completely individualised, matched for the persons whole state & condition.)
Basically the factors which cause Anxiety & Panic Disorder are;
- our life experiences and events which have an impact on us
- how we feel and react to life’s stress or worries
- our family inheritance factors
- past infectious events which can also trigger nervous system effects (this treatment also works on addressing this potential factor)
- gradual toxin exposures over years can also be involved, which we work on clearing
- iatrogenic processes (suppressing the body’s response with drugs/medications for various conditions).
It is the combination of all the above factors which contribute to one’s illness and mental conditions are no exception. Homoeopathy can be an effective system of medicine for Anxiety & Panic Disorder which considers all these factors. It is a system of medicine which truly takes into consideration all symptoms which effect an individual on multiple levels; physical, emotional and mental.
During a consultation apart from how you feel physically, a complete understanding of how you are emotionally and mentally is explored. In some cases there are very strong mental and emotional symptoms that might include anger, anxieties, worries, fears and depression etc. All these symptoms are usually covered in the homoeopathic prescription when selecting the appropriate Natural Medicine and a treatment plan is given to help reduce their intensity and recurrence.
Because of this holistic approach, you will often feel much better within yourself, and gain other improvements in physical problems you may have as well. A client for example, may come for Anxiety &/or Panic as their main complaint and also suffer from say, headaches. During treatment, it will often be experienced that the Anxiety & the headaches become greatly improved.
How long does it take to get better?
This varies with individuals. In my experience, some patients have felt vast improvements within the first 1-2 weeks. Then week by week the condition gradually becomes less intense, until one is very satisfied with their mental & emotional state.
Homoeopathic medicine can be taken in conjunction with anti-depressant and anti-anxiety drugs. Most patients who come for treatment are able to gradually & safely reduce their medications. So this treatment is for people who don’t want to take pharmaceuticals & also for those who are already on them, and want a better outcome, and would like to get off the drugs. Further information regarding this process will be discussed during the consultation.
What is Anxiety?
When you are anxious you feel fearful and tense. In addition you may also have one or more unpleasant physical symptoms. For example, you might have a fast heart rate, a thumping heart (palpitations), feeling sick, shaking (tremor), sweating, dry mouth, chest pain, headaches, fast breathing.
The physical symptoms are partly caused by the brain which sends lots of messages down nerves to various parts of the body when you are anxious. The nerve messages tend to make the heart, lungs, and other parts of the body work faster. In addition, you release stress hormones (such as adrenaline) into the bloodstream when you are anxious. These can also act on the heart, muscles and other parts of the body to cause symptoms.
Anxiety is normal in stressful situations, and can even be helpful. For example, most people will be anxious when threatened by an aggressive person, or before an important race. The burst of adrenaline and nerve impulses which we have in response to stressful situations can encourage a ‘fight or flight’ response.
Anxiety is abnormal if it:
- Is out of proportion to the stressful situation; or
- Persists when a stressful situation has gone, or the stress is minor; or
- Appears for no apparent reason when there is no stressful situation.
What is a Panic Attack?
A panic attack is a severe attack of anxiety and fear which occurs suddenly, often without warning, and for no apparent reason. In addition to the anxiety, various other symptoms may also occur during a panic attack. These include one or more of the following:
- A thumping heart (palpitations).
- Sweating and trembling.
- Dry mouth.
- Hot flushes or chills.
- Feeling short of breath, sometimes with choking sensations.
- Chest pains.
- Feeling sick (nauseated), dizzy, or faint.
- Fear of dying or going crazy.
- Numbness, or pins and needles.
- Feelings of unreality, or being detached from yourself.
The physical symptoms that occur with panic attacks do not mean there is a physical problem with the heart, chest, etc. The symptoms mainly occur because of an overdrive of nervous impulses from the brain to various parts of the body during a panic attack. This overdrive of nervous impulses can lead to the body producing hormones which include adrenaline (epinephrine). This is sometimes referred to as a ‘fight or flight’ response. This kind of reaction is normal in people when we feel we are in danger. During a panic attack the body can react in the same way.
During a panic attack you tend to over-breathe (hyperventilate). If you over-breathe you blow out too much carbon dioxide which changes the acidity in the blood. This can then cause more symptoms such as confusion and cramps, and make palpitations, dizziness, and pins and needles worse. This can make the attack seem even more frightening, and make you over-breathe even more, and so on. It can sometimes result in fainting. A panic attack usually lasts 5-10 minutes, but sometimes they come in waves for up to two hours.
