Symptoms Of Panic Disorder and What They Mean
April 13, 2009 by Alex Taylor
Symptoms of panic disorder can be very wide-ranging, and they can affect us all in many totally different ways. And because of the nature of intenseanxiety, almost any symptom you can think of can be caused by it.
This can cause many problems, because many of these symptoms will be misunderstood by someone who is severely anxious as a sign of a serious medical condition.
For this reason it’s a good idea to become familiar with the more common symptoms of panic disorder so that if and when they strike you aren’t shocked or worried by them.
A large group of the symptoms you can suffer with if you have severe anxiety are adrenaline-based. These are caused by excess adrenaline found in your system, due to your heightened sense of panic and anxiety.
Symptoms caused by excess adrenaline include palpitations (sometimes called a racing heart), shallow breathing, dizziness, and full-blown panic attacks.
Another group of symptoms of panic disorder are those caused by the constant stress found in those who are highly anxious.
Symptoms caused by constant stress are muscle aches, tiredness, headaches, and joint pain.
As well as these, there are also the psychological symptoms that may well affect you. This includes things such as paranoia, depression, derealisation, hallucinations, and depersonalization.
You can begin to see how long a list of symptoms there can potentially be, and I’ve only shown you the tip of a very big iceburg.
Symptoms of panic disorder can be varied and terrifying, but when you start to understand the true causes you will be in a much better position to stay calm when they strike, and to eventually stop them for good.
