Defining and classifying panic attacks as a disease; Trying to treat it without providing any psychotherapy or support can be likened to fighting a fly without draining the swamp. Yes, the physical symptoms subside to some extent, but the swamp that triggered the panic attack is always there. If we continue with the swamp metaphor; In the swamp, your personality is too giving, too focused on others, too honest, responsible, or sensitive, you spend little time for yourself, and you have a brain that never stops talking. Your body, rebelling against all this, rebels against the situation and hits you to stop you, showing that it cannot breathe, and with numbness and a great fear of death or going crazy, it finally stops you and makes you throw off the burdens on you. At this point, while you can get rid of a panic attack permanently with the right psychotherapy and life adjustments, you can take on the role of a patient and block your life. In other words, by using the disease, you can improve your relationships in your favor and get rid of some of your burdens, but ultimately your quality of life decreases and you continue a scenario you do not want. The second worst scenario is to suppress the situation with medication and continue with medication without achieving any personal development or life transformation, that is, not benefiting from psychotherapy. After a while, looking for another doctor and other medicine. In this way, many things may be late for many things (spouse, job, etc.) as a result of the long years lost.

Getting rid of unnecessary thoughts and beliefs and new life changes help the body relax and panic attacks disappear. Drug treatment without awareness and psychotherapy studies often causes the disease to spread over many years and partially improve.
