Anxiety - Prevention
You can help prevent anxiety attacks:
Avoid caffeine, such as coffee, tea, Mountain Dew, colas, and chocolate. Caffeine can keep you in a tense, aroused condition. For more information, see the topic Healthy Eating.
Do not smoke or use smokeless (spit) tobacco products. Nicotine stimulates many physical and psychological processes, causes your blood vessels to constrict, and makes your heart work harder. For more information, see the topic Quitting Tobacco Use.
Exercise during the day. Even a brisk walk around the block may help you stay calm. For more information, see the topic Fitness.
Cognitive-behavioral therapy can help control symptoms of anxiety or panic.
