概要
Panic attacks feel like your body is betraying you. They're not. Here's what's actually going on.
If you've ever had a panic attack, there's a good chance you genuinely thought you were dying — or losing your mind. You weren't. But no one ever explained why it felt that way.
In this episode, Gary Johannes — solution focused hypnotherapist, founder of Inspired to Change, and senior lecturer at CPHT breaks down panic attacks in plain language. Not the clinical version. The version that actually helps.
What's covered:
- What's happening in your brain and body during a panic attack
- Why panic attacks feel so terrifying and why that makes sense
- What causes them and what keeps them going
- The difference between a panic attack and panic disorder
- Why avoidance feels protective but makes things worse
- What to do in the moment when one hits
- What lasting change actually looks like
Plus, one simple thing you can start doing today to understand your own pattern.
This isn't about managing symptoms forever. It's about understanding what's going on so things can actually change.
