Panic Attack Gene Research...Marching Ahead By : Beth Kaminski Prevention is better than cure. So we would always to prevent the disease rather than looking for its cure. But if we already have a disease, then we should look for the cure as soon as possible. the reason behind the panic attacks is found to be a genetic mutation and troubles 400 million people in the US alone. Although in a nebulous stage, still a breakthrough can be achieved for cure for panic disorders. Earlier when there were completely no scope of curing a panic disorder, it was estimated that one in ten people is an anxiety disorder patient. This discovery was made by a team from the Center of Medical and Molecular Biology in Barcelona and was reported in the New Scientist Magazine. Scientists, while in that research, were studying the families with a history of panic disorders, agoraphobia and social phobia. It was seen that 90% of the affected families had a genetic mutation by the name of DUP25. Mutation, in Barcelona, contains more than 60 genes out of which only 23 are known to us. Scientists know the fact that a type of protein is manufactured by these genes which controls the communication of the cells in the nervous system. The mutation in the genes disturbs the balance of the protein resulting into an over-reaction of the brain in stressful situations. An interesting fact that the scientists have come up with shows that not all people with DUP25 mutation suffer from anxiety disorders. The DUP25 mutation tends to change from generation to generation. According to Dr Monica Gratacos, a researcher said: "The environment is also very important. In the affected families, for instance, 20% of people with DUP25 had no anxiety illness at all." the tram is presently working upon the genes on DUP25 that exactly causes anxiety disorders and what anxiety attack medication can cure them. If this is found, the gateway of finding a cure for panic disorders is possible to at least suppress either the genes or their protein products. However, the research and development could take ten years. Genetic mutation for the DUP25 varies within individuals so not all cells will mutate and cause anxiety attacks. Dr Raymond Crow, a psychiatrist at the University of Iowa who is involved in the studies concerning the genetics of panic disorder, told New Scientist magazine that the discovery in anxiety attacks was a "very important finding" adding that "It looks like they have found an entirely new mechanism of disease." Environmental factors and hereditary both are responsible for panic attacks. Panic attacks are caused by the mixture of genetic and environmental factors, this is what an expert in panic disorders and a clinical psychologist based at Dorset Healthcare NHS Trust, Professor Roger Baker told BBC News Online. A person with a relative suffering with panic disorder, is more likely to suffer from the same. However, between half and three-fourth of the panic disorder patients did not have any parental history of the disorders. Misuse of drugs and stressful lifestyle contribute to 8% of the panic attacks. According to Professor Baker, this is not a simple matter and that it is probably a balance of different factors that cause anxiety attacks. "It may well be that some people have a general susceptibility to panic attacks, but they would probably need some sort of stressful event to set it off." A combination of anxiety disorder help and anti depressants, relaxation techniques and self help methods have proved to be beneficial in the treatment of panic attack disorders.

Keeping A Tab on Anxiety By : Beth Kaminski Anxiety might be a part of our routine life but if you let it cross a threshold level, it can start taking control of your life with a number of negative consequences following in its train. Usually, a tendency to grow extreme anxiety on concerns of trivial interest and a persistent feeling of physical and emotional restlessness could be signs of an anxiety disorder in progress. If you feel the same way, you might be in need of some professional help for anxiety. Anxiety disorders are quite a common occurrence and there is no need to press the panic button at being diagnosed with one. However, the most intelligent approach to the problem is to become aware of the nature of anxiety disorders and ways in which the same might manifest. Strictly speaking, there are six major classifications of anxiety disorders which include: Generalized Anxiety Disorder: The usual symptoms include feeling physically and emotionally uncomfortable and being distressed without any apparent reason. One might also suffer from irrational fears or strange apprehensions which have no basis in reality. Physical signs could be involuntary muscular tension, twitching or trembling in hands and feet along with a feeling of dizziness and irritable temper. Therapeutic and pharmacological measures can serve as a great help for anxiety affected people. Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder: Ritualized patterns of behavior originating from a fear of the unknown are some of the most easily recognizable symptoms of the disorder. A feeling of emotional insecurity along with fears of some tragic event materializing accompanies other symptoms. Panic Disorder: If anxiety levels keep soaring higher, it could ultimately lead to anxiety attacks which can be defined as severe episodes of panic which occur all of a sudden and manifest an extreme form of symptoms usually associated with anxiety disorders. The event could last from as long as ten minutes to half an hour which can leave the victim physically and emotionally exhausted. If the condition worsens and anxiety or panic attacks recur, it is known as panic disorder. A single occurrence of panic attack can leave the person emotionally scarred and a recurrence can make one afraid of going to places where the person might perceive him or herself vulnerable. This condition is known as Agoraphobia. However, there are a number of effective medications for anxiety attacks available today which can help keep a check on the condition. Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder: This condition follows after the person experiences some traumatic or life-threatening event. The reasons could be visualizing the event which makes the person gripped with fear and anxiety. Emotional insecurity and sleep problems are usually associated with this condition. One immediately needs help for anxiety of this kind to avoid further complications. Social Anxiety Disorder: Avoiding others and preferring lonely lifestyle is the major symptoms of this type of disorder. The sufferer always feels that someone has been watching him/her in doing something wrong but the case remains entirely different. An inferiority complex develops in that person in which he/she assesses everything with susceptible viewpoint and keeps avoiding social gatherings. Available behavioural and pharmacological therapies are too much helpful in treating most such anxiety disorders. You should have specialized medical help as well to diagnose your problem effectively. Such planning would be supporting tool for you to prepare a successful strategy for treatment. Most often anxiety disorders can be treated easily besides panic disorders if the treatment process is accompanied by many other stress-related issues. Depression, alcoholism or drug addiction can be some major cases. These conditions may become complicated and their treatment too would be difficult if the treatment is not done in planned way. Prescribed medications for anxiety attacks treat panic disorder besides following suitable and genuine behavioural therapeutic measures which improve situation. It is, however, of prime concern that the patient receives complete family support and proper emotional care to recover from severe conditions like panic disorder. Usually, experts recommend a combination of self-help strategies and other behavioral approaches to reduce the severity of the condition. If the patient has a medical history of suffering from stress or depression as well, it can indicate that it requires a more thorough course of treatment to help the person recover completely. Some of the most effective medications for anxiety attacks include Benzodiazepines which help relax the brain and ease the tension. BuSpar is another effective medication to treat anxiety of the chronic kind.

Our minds have evolved to interpret intense stimuli such as colors. In addition, our minds have developed: sounds, tastes, smells, touch, feelings, forms, structures, languages, and more. Such stimuli are utilized to make memories and give impressions of the world which surrounds us. Unfortunately, the material we are usually required to retain is presented as written words on paper. Although we can remember text easily, it is harder to remember other types of information. The gist of using a memory technique to enhance your memory is to attach a dramatic visual image to material you want to remember as it flows into the brain. Mnemonics is a technique designed to do precisely that. Choose positive and neutral images. Unpleasant images may be rejected by your brain. To better train your memory, employ powerful sensate imagery whenever possible. Utilize all of your five senses to help store information about specific events and facts. To retain information, all of the senses are used in mnemonic memory techniques. Provide multi-dimensions to your images including movement and space. Exaggerate the most significant aspects of a picture. Be funny! We seem to easily retain comical images in our mind. Crude images and comments are hard to get past. A lot of people have felt that learning new memory techniques is a difficult process; as with any new habit, they can take time to acquire and internalize.
