Is anxiety disorders nature or nurture?

Modern genetics indicate that most mental disorders are a combination of nature and nurture.

Most human disorders are due to a combination of certain genes (there isn't just one depression gene, nor is there one gene that causes anxiety). It is the interaction of these groups of genes and the environment that causes the disorder to arise. Someone can have all the genes of an anxiety disorder and never experience the symptoms of the anxiety disorder, and someone without the genetic disposition to the disorder can develop it.

When it comes to the nature vs nurture question, it's generally a more complicated mixture of them both that cause the disorder or behavior that's questioned.

How do you handle panic attack?

Panic attacks are triggered by a physiological sense of fear. So the best thing to do is remind yourself that you're OK, you're safe, and you can breath. Make sure you focus on your breathing and inhale for at least 3 seconds. If you inhale, and then hold (to mimic the stress response), before exhaling slowly your body will begin to relax immediately. Practicing yoga/meditation breathing will help you be able to breath during a panic attack.

If you think "I'm going to have a panic attack," get nervous, and focus on the weight on your chest and that sentence; you can make yourself have a panic attack. So, don't do that. Remember to breath and remind yourself that you'll be fine in a minute.

You can do anything you want to do - you have to be in control and not let the anxiety be in control. Try these tips:

For example, if you have a thought "The plane is going to crash," stop and think "REALISTICALLY, flying is safer than driving on the freeway. There is less traffic and the airplanes are inspected before and after every single flight."
  • Meditate - learn a good relaxation technique like meditation that will calm you down.
