Panic attack is a distressing condition seen in four percent of society, and it is seen four times more in women than in men. It is a condition that starts suddenly with anxiety and fear. It appears with symptoms such as distress, discomfort, sweating, palpitations, fear of death, shortness of breath, and not being able to get enough breath. In fact, this panic attack state is a negative hypnosis state that the person does to themselves. Because hypnosis is that the person repeatedly puts themselves into a kind of hypnosis with the negative emotions they felt before, and they cannot get out of it. Because the source of all our automated behaviors, the source of everything outside our control, is in the subconscious, and only by analyzing and resolving the emotion there with hypnotherapy can we become free from these. Its treatment in this way becomes much easier. Generally, this panic attack starts suddenly and passes on average ten, and the person experiences a serious state of anxiety, distress, discomfort, fear. Generally, this fear state is a false fear state. If you encounter a bear in the forest, this is a real fear and you have to run away. At that time, a large amount of the adrenaline hormone is secreted into your blood and your pulse accelerates, your blood pressure rises, and generally people in panic attack also react as if they encountered a bear in the forest. With this adrenaline discharge, depending on the release of adrenaline, they can feel palpitations, distress, feel as if they are having a heart attack, and feel shortness of breath, and they think this is a real fear and they live with the fear that it will always repeat. What if it happens again. We call this anticipatory anxiety. If this negative thought repeats constantly in our mind, unfortunately these panic attacks continue.
There was an interesting situation in a client of mine who applied to me. With panic attack complaints, distress, discomfort, he said that he experienced this situation especially while passing over the Bosphorus Bridge, the bridges on the Bosphorus. In the hypnotherapy work we did with him, I took him to the moment when the event first appeared. And he said that while crossing the Bosphorus Bridge he received a phone call and talked about his closest friend having an accident, falling asleep at the wheel, and dying. And he described the distress and discomfort he experienced at that moment. After finding this during hypnosis, I treated him by changing the meaning of that emotion, and now he can pass over bridges comfortably. Because at that moment, thoughts like “what if I also lose control, what if I also fall asleep like my friend, what if it happens like him” were passing through his mind so much that this caused him to have attacks that he could no longer control. Here, hypnotherapy provides treatment by drying up the swamp as the real cause in the subconscious. Otherwise, we cannot cope with them by killing mosquitoes. If the swamp is there and if these records in the subconscious are constantly there, they will constantly cause problems for us. So actually, the panic attack state is a negative hypnosis that the person does to themselves. With hypnotherapy, hypnosis-supported treatments, psychotherapy, these can be eliminated and the person can become free. You too can become free from your panic attack with hypnotherapy. Goodbye.
