racing heart, profuse sweating, breathing problems, weakness or diz- ziness, feeling hot or a cold chill, tingly or numb hands, chest pain, or stomach pain. Q: Can it be treated? A: Yes. It is generally treated with counseling, medication or both. Talk with your health care provider about your symptoms. She or he can perform a physical exam to make sure that something else isn’t causing your symptoms. Your health care provider may then refer you to a counselor if she or he feels you may be suffering from panic disorder. Counseling: A type of psychotherapy called cognitive behavior ther- apy is most often used for treating panic disorder. It can teach you different ways of thinking, behaving, and reacting to situations that can help you feel less anxious and fearful. Your counselor may also teach you breathing exercises to help you. Medication: Your health care provider may prescribe medication to help treat panic disorder. WANT TO BE A REPORTER? The Sun Star is looking for reporters!
