Getting better is called recovery because we are not born with the condition it is acquired so getting rid of it is recovery. I'm so glad you are getting better.
I've benn feeling under the weather lately I have some type of virus but surprisingly enough no panic, since I have health anxiety, I've been pretty good. I guess I'm just focused on getting better and it's because I accept being sick.
I'm hoping to reverse my panic... I really don't want them around anymore.
Without getting too complicated the brain works on memory. It makes appropriate choices based on repetition which is why CBT works, repetition can make panic better or worse depending on whether it is positives or negatives. Panic attacks are a condition that can be reversed. Disease on the other hand requires part of the brain to be damaged or not functioning as it is meant to be. ( no connection, or connected to the wrong part) It requires an actual physical change. Panic attacks can be very painful but in no way do they cause physical damage. Even moderate alcohol use only shuts down neurotransmitters, it kills nothing. The brain still works. Mental diseases can take half a lifetime to show up and are most likely DNA coding. Most show early, before thirty and because they are DNA coded are hereditary. Panic attacks and the negative thinking can not change DNA. You can learn panic attacks from a parent but you can not inherit them.They are all yours and they can be changed by you. Once changed they stay changed unless you ask them to change back. So don't worry about your anxiety changing into a mental disease, it can't. You can not go insane from it.
Hi Does anxiety disorder and panic attacks cause other mental disorders or illnesses. The world "mental illness" makes me more anxious. It freaks me out.
