Causes of Anxiety Attacks- What You Must Know To Beat Anxiety

There are many causes of anxiety attacks, ranging from medical issues to external mental or emotional stimuli. These causes are many and varied and if you are suffering from anxiety attacks, it is imperative that you find out what is causing them.

1 - Hereditary Causes

First off there may be your heredity blame. Anxiety attacks have been found to run in families, which leads many professionals to conclude that the trait can be found in the human genome. On the other hand, studies on genetically identical twins have shown that sometimes one twin will experience anxiety attacks, while the other will not. Another way in which anxiety attacks can be inherited is through an overly cautious worldview handed down by a patient's parents and the cumulative stress it causes.

2 - Biological Causes

There are also many biological causes to anxiety attacks, such as inner ear disturbances (labyrinthitis), hyperthyroidism, hyperventilation syndrome, hypoglycemia, prolapsed mitral valve (a heart disease), pheochromocytoma (an adrenal gland tumor), and Wilson's disease (a genetic disorder). Even a vitamin B deficiency caused by parasitic tapeworm infection or from a poor diet can also cause anxiety attacks.

3 - Mental / Emotional Causes

Mental or emotional issues can also trigger anxiety attacks. These include generalized anxiety, obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD), phobias, post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), significant personal loss (such as loss of a romantic partner), significant life changes, 'what-if' thinking, lack of assertiveness, withheld feelings, mistaken beliefs, and avoidance of or association with anxiety-provoking situations or environs.

4 - Pharmalogical / Medicinal Causes

Pharmacological or medicinal causes include amphetamines, alcohol, marijuana, psilocybin (a hallucinogen found in some mushrooms), side effects from drugs such as Ritalin or other antidepressants (especially at the beginning or end of use), and stimulants such as caffeine or nicotine. Some anxiety attack sufferers also develop an irrational fear of certain medications, which may result in anxiety attacks if they are taken, which is a purely psychosomatic effect similar to what placebos have been shown to produce.

As anyone can see, there are many causes of anxiety attacks, most of which are completely out of your control if you are having them. The good news is that you can do something about it. The first thing you need to understand is that it is not your fault. Your anxiety attacks are nothing that you asked for and not something that you necessarily caused. If it is found that your anxiety attacks are caused by something external that is easily remedied, your problem may be solved quite easily. If it is caused by a lifestyle choice, for example marijuana or alcohol consumption, there are alternatives available. If it is something that is more ephemeral, then your mental health professional can counsel you and/or prescribe medication that will help you deal with your anxiety attacks.

Conclusion

Don't immediately blame yourself or believe that there is simply something wrong with you if you are having anxiety attacks. If you look hard enough, you will probably be able to discover what the cause is. In many cases, the cause of anxiety attacks can be quickly discerned and dealt with via counseling, medication or self help.

How do I get out of this rut?
I can't figure out how to get out of my depression, severe anxiety, headaches, etc. I've been suicidal again lately wanting to give up, because I have no one to talk to. I had a messed up family life with a brother who died of cancer when I was really little, I lived with conservative Christian parents in a small town, my father was trying to keep the family a float and i was just alone with my mom and suicidal. I don't remember anything about my bro even though I was close to him. Anyway, I was doing okay in elementary school, but in middle school I got bullied, mugged, and harassed for no reason other than being a quiet nice kid in a school full of thugs. Then I transferred to a better high school that I had to bus or get rides across town for with a better education, but it was full of rich snobs who also harassed me until I had a major growth spurt near the end and started working out regularly. I also had several major health issues throughout my life that often compromised me, and I was often made fun of for being quiet and for not having much. So after high school, I went to college and worked extremely hard in school and worked on the side to prove to the haters that I could be somebody. I was also someone who'd help homeless people and other people who I saw that were in trouble that other folks neglected. But most of the time in college, I was isolated, all by myself. I didn't have true friends, I only had a couple friends as a kid (both at risk youth) and they stabbed me in the back and left me when they didn't need what I had no more. My family took care of my basic finanical needs even when they were poor, but they didn't allow me to have many friends (especially those who weren't Christian, didn't allow me to listen to most music, watch TV, or whatever. My dad was also abusive and often intimidated me and never let me speak my mind. I pretty mcuh had to listen, because he did bodybuilding. Anyway, this all didn't affect me all that much until the past few years. My parents have quite a bit of money now (they bought a nice house), but they could care less about my problems and I don't have friends. I'm back there right now, because I'm trying to get these health issues solved and am working towards getting my dream job, but other than giving me food, they aren't concerned. They actually didn't even believe depression was real until one of my dad's friends committed suicide. They know that I'm always alone but never talk to me unless they need me to do something for them. I hate not being able to breath and I hate never being able to sleep or feel at peace. I've been to a psychologist, and he did nothing. I'm also often told that this happened because I stopped going to church, but that isn't true, and I want nothing to do with that hypocritical institution. I feel like all hte people I've known in my life turned their back on me even though I helped them during tough times. I'm trying, but it takes time and getting a job where I live is impossible with 20% unemployment. College grads have a hard time finding min wage jobs 'round here.
