I had debilitating panic attacks for a year that cycled though daily and nightly that even began to trigger phobias. One night I was just searching for remedies (as I did in all of my free time) and came upon an article on 'sugar and panic'. It explained how when blood sugars were low the body would secrete adrenaline to trigger the body to create sugar from stored protein. I cut out sugar and simple carbs and within three days my chronic panic attacks were gone.... If you ever notice panic attacks cycling with your meals or snacks then try going on a paleo diet with low intake of simple carbs. It can't hurt.
They did. I had anxiety or rather tight muscles in my neck for a few weeks but the panic attacks were gone. I did also switch to more of paleo type diet. But amazingly I had a rebound after going vegan for a bit but after going back to paleo they went away. I am not trying to sell paleo, I think pretty much any balanced diet would work. I just used paleo myself. Also my fear of flying went away as did my fear of dentists and malls.
Marco Rodriguez - Good luck! I am pretty sure I had hypoglycemia or hyper, can't remember exactly. Also try that magnesium calm drink and make sure you get all the B vits. I know it can be hard. I had doctors telling me it was all in my head and if I had listened to them I don't know where I would be today. Also note that I didn't do medication so I don't know if that might help.
This video couldn’t of come at a better time. Just hours before this went live I was talking to a friend who was having a panic attack and 2 other friends that struggle with time. Gods timing is so perfect
I love using essential oils for all kinds of natural remedies:) I clean my kitchen counters with oils in my spray bottle & diffuse them. This video would’ve been helpful last year when I was having some anxiety/panic...I cut out gluten & sugar completely and within a couple days was feeling amazing. I then went off that eating plan after 4 months...then was eating SAD diet again for 6 months and was feeling like garbage again. So in January I pushed reset on no gluten & sugar and for REAL I feel great!!!! My gym workouts are getting stronger, I don’t feel so tense and anxious and So many other things are better. I just did a video about Anxiety on my channel too, Steps to take to cope with anxiety naturally. There is hope for anyone suffering with anxiety/panic attacks👏🏻🙌🏼 so thankful the Lord gives us natural ways & His word to bless us when we are in those valleys. I pray you are blessed today with peace & relaxation and most importantly that Jesus will get you through and take whatever is weighing you and your thoughts down with.🙏🏻. You will get through it and be stronger in the end!!
I was wondering about Frankincense. I got myself some to combat a cold and getting over that. I have been reading more about Frankincense and it's benefits for thyroid. So, I have been using my Aveeno lotion with lavender, chamomile, and ylang ylang. And then I add Frankincense. It takes a while to notice it, but I feel like it is beginning to help. My dad had a heart attack in Sept. and mom is dealing with breast cancer. So, you can imagine my stress. Glad to learn about essential oils.
Hi Dr Axe. I'm a South African and also struggle with anxiety. Thank you thank you thank you for this video and your channel. I always learn so much. God bless you!
I take probiotics and the brand i use is Garden of Life, they have great organic raw products, get one 50 billion or above, they have men and women's versions too
I have panic attacks and agoraphobia. I take Ashwagandha, use calming essential oils, and and got "Panic Attacks workbook" by David Carbonell. This book is amazing!!!!!
So excited. Just started using essential oils a few months ago, along with continuing to improve my diet, and I LOVE them. I suffer from anxiety, which I know is fear, since my husband passed away 5 years ago. I cannot seem to fully relax since then, but these oils are amazing. They feel like home. My daughter is using them as well. I want to be certified in essential oils. The more I know about them, the better. Thanks Dr. Axe. Very informative video!
I am taking lavender oil under the tongue, it calmed my anxiety within 5 minutes, except i am not sure the long term safety. So will try organic lavender oil, and try to make my own with putting lavender in olive oil for a few weeks. My anxiety is due to stomach cramps. So I tried butterbur + feverfew, castor oils, damiana, pau d'arco + slippery elm, b1 + b3 500 - 1000 mg each, vit d3 k2, magnesium citrate + magtein All those works but need to rotate abit except vit b1 b3 d3
Great video! Essential oils are so awesome for combatting anxiety. Frankincense is one of my favorites when I need to feel calmer. I put it on everything. If in doubt, put a little "frank" on it!
Before I knew what anxiety was I thought I was in fear while not being scared of anything at the same time. I have noticed Vetiver in a few of your vids When oils can be used for multiple things its so awesome. I use Peppermint, frankincense, Copaiba and Lemongrass in a lot of things Shout out from Melbourne Australia
Thank you Dr axe I have such a passion for the same nutritional healing and holistic healing as well! I have a fear of health issues a sort of form of hypochondria you could say and it all started in 2015 when I lost my mom after she passed panic attacks we're always there it has been quite the intense journey but I have learned a lot about alkaline and PH balance and also have a strong urge to help others like yourself! You are wonderful thank you for all you do 💛
Jim Riley You should get "Panic attacks workbook" by David Carbonell for your grandson. It's extremely helpful in conquering and calming attacks. Check your local library. I wish him luck!
You're the best Dr Axe. I have been follwoing you for years and made many of your DIY products. You are my go to source for pretty much everything. Thank you for making this video I have struggled for more than ten years on and off with anxiety/panic attacks. It will be good to make up a little healing kit with all these fabulous essential oils. Thank you from the bottom of my heart
Try Tiger Balm ointment, the white one. Rub some under your nose,it has a calming effect. I felt that the aroma of Tiger Balm ointment actually reminds me to breathe when I'm anxious too. --> during anxiety, we tend not to breathe properly. 🌹 God Bless!
Great video as always Dr Axe i just want to mention that the saying " black seeds Cure everything but death " is a saying of prophet Muhammed Peace be upon him.
Italij, talking about what is bothering you is a very big help. I'm sorry you are experiencing these feelings. The oils definitely help along with classical music.
It's crazy how high anxiety is in our culture right now. I think it's from overstimulation and a barrage of information. Our brains aren't used to going nonstop! I've been experiencing that overwhelm lately (not quite to the level of anxiety thankfully), and I've been using oils to handle the stress. I use doTERRA Peace blend - it has a lot of calming oils in it like the one you mentioned. It's been so good in an Epsom bath too, since the magnesium in Epsom is calming to stress too.
Thank you so much for all the effort and time you put into bettering others lives. You are a widely trusted source and someone I will always click on if your website or videos pop up while doing personal research. You are greatly appreciated!
A highly intelligent, insightful and informed person cycling through the typical health problems that afflict neurotic modern urbanized humanity circa 2017 will create that effect 😁
There's a difference between panic attacks and anxiety my doctor put me on medical cannabis for anxiety but I take anti-anxiety medication to stop the panic attacks
Would you please tell me how much and how much and how often for severe anxiety depression insomnia and racing negative thoughts could you send me a guide
The crazy thing is I thought my low body temp and freezing to the bones ...i can't move...so I been seeing a Dr for Severe Anxiety and now having Panic Attacks when driving....I not understanding what is happening to me...I been following when I have attack of freezing my temp....and it at the lowest is 93...and 94....i take hot bath with epsom salt and it heats me up...and I have my Thyroid checked every yr PM said it is normal...I have also lost 12 lbs in past few months...and very unwanted weight loss...I looked up low thyroid and it seems to put wt on....i am so confused with what is going on and seeing so many Drs. I just want to do all this natural.....and the paranoia is so horrid laying in bed trying to sleep and my mind is like a race car with gas peddle stuck out of control...I never understood the word STRESS....when young but, TODAY, bills children car payments just everything to care for is feeling out of control for me...maybe even a bit of change of life onset idk anymore...but, it was very nice to see you all chatting and giving support...that is another thing i lack....NO SUPPORT TEAM....thx all for the live chat and thx Dr...hats off to your natural remedies hugs to all that are not feeling well..Ital :)
I get that freezing cold feeling too, when that happens I know right away to take a hot shower. Unfortunately for me years ago I got put on meds for my anxiety and I can pretty much not ever come off them. I really wish I could and I have tried but the anxious feeling and anxiety comes right back tenfold, the meds I take is Buspar. It can cause me seizures, and epilepsy brain seizures if I get off of it, ugh so scary. I really wish the Dr who put me on would've told me that stuff before putting me on it. I too like to do everything natural now and I'd say what helps with people who have anxiety is B vitamins, meditation and positive thinking. Stay away from any caffeinated beverages, use herbal teas which I'm sure you know that 😊, a good tea I like is chamomile or kava. I hope the best for you.
wow, OwleEyes Love....I just got put on Buspar, about 2 weeks ago, and do not like the effects so far, I am on Cymbalta and like you been on for yrs trying for years to get off...i been on since 2008...I wish I could tell others how bad this med really is, I started it on trial studies...I truly think all these Meds Drs put us on is really hurting US...and you also suffer the freezing....it's so bad I know i can't move I feel like I am in the frozen winter month of January below 0 naked outside just frozen ....I have been drinking camomile tea at night with a little honey and it does help calm me...i need very healthy habbits to control this ole brain haaa...thx for reply and huggies to you ...Ital :) P.S. I am sure a lot of others are in our boat and we will beat this...
Hi ItaliJa, It's overactive thyroid (hyperthyroidsm) that makes you lose weight. It causes symptoms like nervosusness, anxiety, hyperactivity (while tired, at the same time), mood swings and much more. I'm thinking that it's more like what Dr. Axe said in the video, your fears have caused you anxiety and now it's manifesting in your life in the form of panic attacks. My dear friend suffered for years with that and it later morphed into agorophobia as well. She finally got it under control with a Behavioral Psychologist, who helped her find her triggers and then change her behavioral patterns and responses to the way she viewed life and responded to it. I hope this helps and that soon you'll be 100% and happy again. You CAN do it!
I take ashwagandha which controls the release of cortisol. Cortisol wakes us naturally in the morning but when we're stressed it spikes at other times waking us through the night and causing that sick feeling in the stomach. Ashwagandha really helps. I also take Rhodiola drops in water half an hour before doing something I'm dreading.
Peri menopause causes anxiety and heart palps so its not only “mental” but stress definitely exacerbates it. Calmer environments and more positivity sunlight and exercise.
I went to the hospital 3 times and they thought I had anxiety attack. I’m not sure. I think my body was going through shock from not eating right lately or maybe just dehydration. I had been having constant headaches and feeling fainty and disoriented. That’s why I went to the hospital. I didn’t get to eat a big meal before going and I was waiting too long and then nurse came into take blood. After the left, I started feeling like I would really faint and starting getting scared. My body began to freeze up, like paralysis. It felt like ants were covering my entire body and my arms and legs were stuck, my organs were crushing me. My heart rate went up to 160. They told me it was anxiety but I had never experienced anything like it before and it only happened because I hadn’t eaten. I’ve been eating a lot of chicken lately and it has helped with my problems lately. They told me I wasn’t anemic though but my white blood cells were really high. I still don’t know what’s wrong with me but if I don’t eat, I will have some kind of attack. :(
Buy a cheap Glucose meter at Walmart and see if it's your blood sugar dropping when you start feeling weird. I feel weird when mine drops in the low 80's and it causes panic attacks.
This video was incredible I would like you make a video in Spanish too because my brother likes all about nature product and things that you teach. I love everything you teach too I am studying to become an esthetician and it is interesting because Im using oils and it is good to know more deep information .
Can you go over the different types of diffusers? Light heat vs humidifier type vs nebulizer? Some may be better for some people than others. Having asthma, young kids, pets, etc could be factors.
Thanks. Very helpful. Constructive comment: maybe put the picture on the slide on the side where you are standing so the text is not blocked :) Pictures are nice and appealing too :)
Thanks for being so thorough Dr. Axe. All of your videos including this one are so helpful. Love your "When in doubt...Frankincense". We have a great respect and reverence for this oil after our experiences with it.
Dr. Axe, you seem to imply that cumin oil and black cumin (or black seed) oil are the same thing, but they are from 2 different species of plant. Black seed oil is a fixed oil, not an essential oil. Just wanted to clear up any confusion. Thanks!
brilliant video . I often use essential oils . These are all fantastic , lavender & epson salts perfect for the bath and put some lavender in your bedroom. Manuka honey & oil is excellent for the skin also i use it in my soapmaking and bath body etc. thank you for sharing . Excellent info for anxiety/panic.
so if you have anxiety, you should inhale some oil to get better? instead of dealing with the anxiety, finding ways to cope? I feel like that's not really helping someone. but prove me wrong
Everyone here is praising this video like crazy. I can't understand how the scents could help. If anything, they'd only cause problems for me as perfume, cologne, and etcetera gives me agonizing headaches and causes my throat and lungs to burn, making it painful to even breathe. Places like Bath and Body Works are my worst nightmare and I avoid them like the plague.
Essential oils are much more than "scents" they're actually plant compounds. When you walk in a forest and smell pine you're smelling what becomes it's essential oil. The compounds are called "terpenes". You can learn more here: draxe.com/essential-oils/essential-oils-guide/?
Try Copaiba...it helps significantly calm fears. I too used to deal with fear that was almost crippling. doTERRA Copaiba saved my life (also with tons of prayer!!)
Josh! Thank you for this teaching but please can you direct me to where and how do I purchase oils that I know are safe? I know it's not at the corner store but I really want to buy some of these and I need direction please on what I should look for when I look at the bottle to know that it is pure and safe or what companies can I trust? Do you have any opinions or guidance?
EXCELLENT video DOC..i love using essential oils of all kinds!! It can also assist and balancing hormones for women who are going through perimenopause menopause or even post menopause they have done wonders for me I really love this channel great info thank you!! 😍🌷🌴😁💖
Very good video, as usual, thanks Josh. My sister suffers from anxiety but also hayfever. Just opening the bottle will make her start coughing. What to do then? Essential oils are then out of the treatment, right?
vetiver, citrus oils, patchouli, roman chamomile, frankincense, clary sage, coriander, ginger, holy basil, manuka, cumin, helichrysum, lavender, turmeric, spikenard

Added sugars right? Is sugar from fruit fine?

Also, about use of Frankincense for cancer. Would you recommend the oil or the extract?
Hi Dr Axe. I'm a South African and also struggle with anxiety. Thank you thank you thank you for this video and your channel. I always learn so much. God bless you!
Just started Lavella which are lavender oil capsules. Fall asleep really fast and seem to keep me calm.
Probiotics have done wonders for my anxiety. Most of the serotonin is produced in the gut, our “second brain”. 👍🏻
Risa Mama what brand are you taking?
What brand???
Recommend the good one please
Risa Mama Please share the probiotic product you’re using.
I take probiotics and the brand i use is Garden of Life, they have great organic raw products, get one 50 billion or above, they have men and women's versions too
I have panic attacks and agoraphobia. I take Ashwagandha, use calming essential oils, and and got "Panic Attacks workbook" by David Carbonell. This book is amazing!!!!!
Whats In My Life 2017 what is ashwagandha? What are the side effects?
Whats In My Life 20
I also take Ashwaganda, it definitely helps.
Are you still agoraphobic?
Whats In My Life 2017 does the ashwaganda make you tried ?

What brand of essential oils do you use? And where do you get them?
@@CHAVEOCHOA Doterra through a friend.
I am taking lavender oil under the tongue, it calmed my anxiety within 5 minutes, except i am not sure the long term safety. So will try organic lavender oil, and try to make my own with putting lavender in olive oil for a few weeks.
My anxiety is due to stomach cramps. So I tried butterbur + feverfew, castor oils, damiana, pau d'arco + slippery elm, b1 + b3 500 - 1000 mg each, vit d3 k2, magnesium citrate + magtein
All those works but need to rotate abit except vit b1 b3 d3
My anxiety stems from finances! I'm a single homeowner and finances, especially in the winter provokes my anxiety!
Thank you for addressing anxiety. It is more and more prevalent in so many aspects.
Perfect timing!! I was up late w/ anxious thoughts & I couldn’t fall asleep. I’m going to try these tips.
I followed your advice on Vetiver and Roman Chamomile misting every night for insomnia. It's amazing!! Thanks SO much 💖
Did you buy any particular brand? I'd like to try it.
My cousin was having a DoTerra sales party at the time. That's what I'm using.
I love essential oils. They have really helped me personally and I use them in all my homemade health and beauty products at home now.
Great video! Essential oils are so awesome for combatting anxiety. Frankincense is one of my favorites when I need to feel calmer. I put it on everything. If in doubt, put a little "frank" on it!
Hey there! You may enjoy this article: draxe.com/essential-oils/what-is-frankincense/?

Thank you for explaining them in detail and listing the potential health risks or cautions.
There’s always more to learn with essential oils! Love sharing what I’m learning on my channel. Thanks for sharing tips on youtube!!!!
Bought this book. I think it will take a while to sink in. But very well written what I have read so far.
You always post an appropriate video just when I need it! It's borderline creepy. Lol. Thank you so much for these awesome videos!
Jennifer Scotten- or maybe Divinely guided.....
A highly intelligent, insightful and informed person cycling through the typical health problems that afflict neurotic modern urbanized humanity circa 2017 will create that effect 😁
There's a difference between panic attacks and anxiety my doctor put me on medical cannabis for anxiety but I take anti-anxiety medication to stop the panic attacks

ItaliJa
Also look into the keto diet way of eating, says it can help with what we're going through.
Hi ItaliJa,
It's overactive thyroid (hyperthyroidsm) that makes you lose weight. It causes symptoms like nervosusness, anxiety, hyperactivity (while tired, at the same time), mood swings and much more.
I'm thinking that it's more like what Dr. Axe said in the video, your fears have caused you anxiety and now it's manifesting in your life in the form of panic attacks. My dear friend suffered for years with that and it later morphed into agorophobia as well. She finally got it under control with a Behavioral Psychologist, who helped her find her triggers and then change her behavioral patterns and responses to the way she viewed life and responded to it. I hope this helps and that soon you'll be 100% and happy again. You CAN do it!
I take ashwagandha which controls the release of cortisol. Cortisol wakes us naturally in the morning but when we're stressed it spikes at other times waking us through the night and causing that sick feeling in the stomach. Ashwagandha really helps. I also take Rhodiola drops in water half an hour before doing something I'm dreading.
Peri menopause causes anxiety and heart palps so its not only “mental” but stress definitely exacerbates it. Calmer environments and more positivity sunlight and exercise.

Sounds like low blood sugar. Chicken is protein and stabilizes blood sugar. At least that's what I;m going through.
Buy a cheap Glucose meter at Walmart and see if it's your blood sugar dropping when you start feeling weird. I feel weird when mine drops in the low 80's and it causes panic attacks.
I agree with checking your sugar level. If it gets low you do feel weird and sweat cold and get panic attacks like symptoms.
Be nice if we could read the information on the screen bc he talks very fast tho all interesting to learn.
If you accept that you are in anxiety and tell yourself its okay to have anxiety, it will melt away.
I tried the 3 drops a day lavender/chamamile oil (I do it in water) definitely does lower my anxiety!!
You always have wonderful information! You are a blessing Dr. Axe! Thank you.
I was taking notes now making a list & going to local health store thanks for that very informative video 👍
Hi. Excellent video 🙏. Can you recommend a trust site to buy these oils. Organic Oil! Please!!
This video was incredible I would like you make a video in Spanish too because my brother likes all about nature product and things that you teach. I love everything you teach too I am studying to become an esthetician and it is interesting because Im using oils and it is good to know more deep information .
Thank you Dr. Axe I'm adding to the playlists.
Thank you Dr. Axe...this was great!
Very good summary, and good to see someone who’s that enthusiatic :)
Can you go over the different types of diffusers? Light heat vs humidifier type vs nebulizer? Some may be better for some people than others. Having asthma, young kids, pets, etc could be factors.
Thanks. Very helpful. Constructive comment: maybe put the picture on the slide on the side where you are standing so the text is not blocked :) Pictures are nice and appealing too :)
Thanks for being so thorough Dr. Axe. All of your videos including this one are so helpful. Love your "When in doubt...Frankincense". We have a great respect and reverence for this oil after our experiences with it.
Wonderfully comprehensive educational video! Thank you!
Dr. Axe, you seem to imply that cumin oil and black cumin (or black seed) oil are the same thing, but they are from 2 different species of plant. Black seed oil is a fixed oil, not an essential oil. Just wanted to clear up any confusion. Thanks!
Black seed oil took away my psoriasis. I took a teaspoon a day until my bottle was empty. It amazed me as one patch was thick and would bleed.
Thank you do much for this information. I can't wait to try out some of these oils
what would you recommend for stage fright ? Thanks ....
Balance by doTERRA works really well for this!
Thank you so much Dr. Axe! I now feel like there's hope. I'm excited to try some of these :)
Healing bath salt recipe. Do you use the entire mixture for one bath?
What brand essential oils do YOU use Dr. Axe.....otherwise it doesn't matter what type of oil we buy......it won't have same effect.
Can I make candles with these ?

How to use lavender oil for anxiety and panic attacks?
How insanely helpful. Thank you!
brilliant video . I often use essential oils . These are all fantastic , lavender & epson salts perfect for the bath and put some lavender in your bedroom. Manuka honey & oil is excellent for the skin also i use it in my soapmaking and bath body etc. thank you for sharing . Excellent info for anxiety/panic.
Mystical Light be careful everyone putting essential oils in your bath effects everyone different I had racing heart after only 7 drops
so if you have anxiety, you should inhale some oil to get better? instead of dealing with the anxiety, finding ways to cope? I feel like that's not really helping someone. but prove me wrong
Really great info. Thanks so much. Think some of these will work well for me.
I wish you sold all the oils you talk about.
Love the channel. But can you please do a video to help treat Vasovagal Syncope thanks in advance...
Excellent presentation. Thanks Doc.
Everyone here is praising this video like crazy. I can't understand how the scents could help. If anything, they'd only cause problems for me as perfume, cologne, and etcetera gives me agonizing headaches and causes my throat and lungs to burn, making it painful to even breathe. Places like Bath and Body Works are my worst nightmare and I avoid them like the plague.
Essential oils are much more than "scents" they're actually plant compounds. When you walk in a forest and smell pine you're smelling what becomes it's essential oil. The compounds are called "terpenes". You can learn more here: draxe.com/essential-oils/essential-oils-guide/?
how to find the best francensence oil Doc.? they are so many different ones.
I have panic attacks and clinical depression and essential oils can help prevent a panic attack but do nothing when I'm having one.

that saying you mentioned about black seed oil is actually about onion seed oil.
Thanks for the great info Dr. Axe! What essential oils brands are the most reputable ?

Which brands are the best for essential oils
Very good video, as usual, thanks Josh. My sister suffers from anxiety but also hayfever. Just opening the bottle will make her start coughing. What to do then? Essential oils are then out of the treatment, right?
