Men in the group learn new coping strategies, as a recovery specialist guides them through the process of uncovering hidden fears, strengths, and weaknesses.

Group dialogue contributes support, insights, and often solutions to seemingly difficult issues. Clean and sober living is placed at the center of the recovery process.

Many people believe that panic attacks are common, or something that can be controlled, and thus they do not seek professional help. They have heard about deep breathing techniques and relaxation exercises, and so they continue to believe that they can handle their problems on their own, that professional treatment is too expensive and they don’t need panic attack help. While there are techniques that can be used to stop panic attacks or reduce their effects, medical help is also needed in order to develop a long-term plan for overcoming the attacks and to determine whether medication is necessary. It is always best to seek medical attention once the first panic attacks affect you, so that the issue can be combated early. However, it is imperative that medical attention be sought immediately if any of these five signs occur. 5 Signs that You Need Medical Attention 1. Chest Pain. Many people are scared that they are experiencing a heart attack, or are about to experience a heart attack, when they feel chest pain during a panic attack. Terrible thoughts race through their head, such as the idea that they are dying. Instances of chest pain may or may not be an indicator of cardiac problems, but either way, chest pain is a serious issue that intensifies panic and requires immediate medical attention. 2. Hyperventilation and/or choking. Hyperventilation causes a person’s breathing pattern to become irregular, resulting in short, quick breaths and loud gasps for air.
