Average of time before panic attacks go away

[Darla1508]

On average, how long was it before panic attacks subsided? I've read some were quickly, some were months, and now I see it took some many many years.  I'm only on day 3 of gluten-free.

At least 2-6 weeks before you notice first time improvments normally, about 6 months in your life will start changing dramatically and in a few years you will be like a different person if you stick with it and do not have many set backs. Just keep up with the diet and staying safe for now. Whole foods diet helps and not eating out. Be sure to check out the newbie 101 if you have not already. I will provide it later on in some links.

 

Addressing the panic attacks, Tis can depend on the cause, some people the panic attacks are brought on by a deficiency in B-vitamins and magnesium leading to impaired brain function and thus panic attacks caused by the inability for your brain to work right and confusion in most cases though it can be directly linked to gluten exposure one way or another like in my case it causes my immune system to attack my nervous system and brain in a form of gluten ataxia leading to confusion and panic attacks with bouts of rage.. Others causes can be by certain chemicals and transmitters in the brain being blocked by a response to another food or additive. Sometimes the anxiety and confusion can be triggered by foods other then gluten like many of us have found the artificial sweeteners Aspartame, and Acesulfame Potassium to trigger.

My suggestion for help with stress and anxiety is to start supplementing B-vitamins and Magnesium to help with it. I find taking Liquid Health brand Stress & Energy and Neurological support 3 times a day 1 tbsp each works bloody miracles. Magnesium wise I have 2 options I would suggest I use them on rotation. Natural Vitality Calm is a magnesium citrate you mix in a drink also, it can be harsh on your stomach and I suggest starting off with a smaller dose of 1/4tsp and working it up to the full dose or more or less depending on how it works for you 2-3 times a day. If you find your getting loose stools or having gastric issues your taking too much and need to take it down. IF you have issues with it still I would suggest Doctors best, odder tasting but very easy on the stomach mixes great with juice, you just follow the directions with it and you should be fine.
