Asthma is a serious condition that can cause death. Stress may cause asthma or acerbate the condition. Many times doctors misdiagnose panic attacks to be asthma attacks (See the differences at the bottom of this post).
Over twenty/five years ago, my client was experiencing anxiety, because she was unable to physically exert herself for fear of a full blown asthma attack. These full blown misdiagnosed asthma attacks either put her in the ER for treatments or in the hospital for a 4 day stay or longer.
You will find that it took many years in the combining of her emotional states to created the chemistry for a full blown panic attack. We are amazing creatures!
The 25 minute session is divided into 2 parts:
1. 19 minutes on eliciting her emotional state and the “Clean Language” metaphor intervention:
2. 6 minutes on the testing of the intervention:
This is a 2 month follow up that is 3 minutes long:
I called again 5 years later. She had been misdiagnosed and no longer suffered from panic attacks.
My client agreed to the making and releasing of these recordings to the therapy community.
Panic/Anxiety Attack vs Asthma Attack
- Emotional State: If you’re feeling calm, fatigued, or exhausted, it’s likely an asthma attack. Your emotional state during the episode is key to differentiating between the two.
- Medication Response: The second indicator is how you respond to medication. Anxiety medications are ineffective for asthma, and vice versa. Observing which medication alleviates your symptoms will help identify the true nature of the attack.
