How frequent are anxiety attacks usually?

anxiety attacks can happen daily depending on the situation. 3 - 4 times a day maybe sometimes more.

In my experience, I think it is completely dependent on the person and the situation. There were times in my life where I had more than one a day or a couple a week, and there were times where I didn't have one for a couple months. So I think it just depends on what is going on in your life, or medicine, etc.

That very much depends on the person, and their anxiety. For some people, anxiety comes and goes every now and then, disappears for years on end. For other people, anxiety can strike multiple times a day. Know that you can get help through therapists both at 7 Cups or face to face as there are a range of evidence-based treatments for anxiety attacks that can help!

From my experience, depending on the circumstances they can range from hardly ever happening, to being set off quite easily and lasting days to weeks from even just one incident. Frequency, for me at least, tends to involve the amount and degree of certain kinds of stimuli being exposed to me (i.e. social drama with some friends can cause me great anxiety attacks, whereas if I am left to my own devices for a while, I may occasionally get a light bout of anxiety thinking about what others think of me after being apart for (relatively) long periods). It will vary from person to person, I imagine, but I think that while anxiety attacks can strike at any moment, they are usually brought on by something in the environment or a reaction to dwelling too long on our own insecurities.

This answer varies depending on the person, their needs, and their health. If nothing in particular is causing it, they could happen at any moment

This will definitely vary from person to person. Not only do they occur more or less frequently for some people than others, but attacks can be shorter or longer in length. I’ve had experiences where my entire work day was an eight hour anxiety attack because the environment was so toxic. I know this isn’t a very specific answer, but, truly, it simply varies from person to person.

The frequency of anxiety and panic attacks completely vary from person to person, mostly depending on their emotional tolerance to stress and pressure. A person's emotional tolerance may go up when they're in a happier, self-confident state, and may go down when they're in a depressed, self-loathing state.

Anxiety attacks usually occur suddenly and without warning. Sometimes there’s an obvious trigger, but in other cases, the attacks come out of the blue. The frequency varies from person to person. If your anxiety is only related to one specific trigger, then the frequency will depend on exposure to that trigger. If your anxiety attacks come out of the blue, the frequency will vary. Often we keep ourselves tense thinking and worrying about when the next anxiety attack will happen. This does have the adverse effect of making the anxiety attacks more frequent. Anxiety attacks usually peak within 10 minutes, and they rarely last more than 30 minutes. The better you learn to deal with your anxiety attacks, the less frequent they will become :)

I don't think there is an average or usual number. Every person is different and everyday is different as well. In stressful days, the frequency of anxiety attacks can increased...and then they can disappear for a while.

That depends on the person. Sometimes people get them once every hour, others get them once in 5 years. It's depends in the person.

It really depends on the person and the context, but sometimes they can happen spontaneously without a specific trigger to make these attacks happen.

Panic attacks can happen anywhere at anytime. However, Most attacks take within 10 mins to reach its maximum. But they don last more than an hour, majority only last 20-30 mins.

It depends on the person and if they have triggers they can happen several times a day or some days none at all.

Depends on who you are and how well you’ve learned to cope with them. Some people it could be several times a week or even year, others could be several times a day it really just depends on the person and situation.

It’s different for everyone, some people experience anxiety attack’s everyday whereas others get them rarely

There isnt really a usual amount as each individual person can be more or less sensitive to anxiety and even just in one person they can go through different periods of their life getting more anxiety than usual. The point to remember is anxiety exists in us because our ancestors used it to stay alive from all the dangers normally found in the wild. Today we are not living in the wild but instead safe indoors in a society with rules and laws to protect us. Times have changed so much that our bodies and minds cant keep up and evolve fast enough causing a lot of the anxiety issues we have today, anxiety is a problem because we dont need it as much as our ancestors did but we cant just suddenly evolve it out of our species. The truth is that even when anxiety is a issue to deal with when you just want to live a normal relaxing life, its still a part that is just trying to keep us safe. Its uncomfortable and annoying but its not there to hurt us, so no amount of anxiety is too much. Just focus on learning and educating yourself about anxiety, how it works and how various people have managed to stop it being a issue for them. While there is many great people to help you and vast amounts of information about getting better your a individual and have to find the exact route for you to get better.

My anxiety attacks would occur at least once every 3 days. I have recently been working through my past traumas, and learning to recognize activating/triggering situations. By doing this, I take back my power from my past traumas and 9/10 i avoid the anxiety attack. So in short, I have only experienced 1 anxiety attack in the past month because when the activating situation occurs, I remind myself I am safe, I focus on the things I can see, I can smell, I can hear, and this helps bring me back into my window of tolerance. These techniques seem so simple, but they have been sooo effective for me.

I'm sorry you're going through having anxiety attacks. As someone who also deals with this I know how hard it can be and can relate to having had concerns about what is normal for my situation. Just know that you will get through this and with therapy this does get better. Whatever frequency you're experiencing anxiety attacks at is the normal amount for you in your situation. Many people don't get them at all while many other people get them frequently. There isn't a standard amount that's considered normal. Something I've found that worked for me is learning to focus on each of my senses during the anxiety attack and in my head list five things for each sense that I was experiencing in the environment. For example: sight - red pen, notebook, coffee cup, speakers, fern; sound - cars in the distance, keyboard typing, a dog bark, air conditioning; etc. I wish you luck on your journey and know you'll get where you're trying to go.

Anxiety attacks are really difficult to manage in every day life because they can completely disrupt an entire day and leave you completely exhausted afterwards. Unfortunately, there is no easy answer to how frequent they are usually because it entirely depends on the person who is having them; some people have known triggers for their anxiety attacks and can limit their own surroundings to prevent exposure to those triggers, while others can have anxiety attacks for seemingly no reason. For a person who has their own anxiety well-managed, attacks shouldn't be so frequent as to wholly disrupt everyday life, and I would strongly encourage anyone who is feeling held back by their anxiety attacks to seek some professional help with finding their own triggers and managing those attacks.

Well, it all depends upon the person. For someone who has social anxiety, they may be very frequent, as you feel like everyone's watching you in public. You start shaking and it's just not a pleasant experience. Some health conditions may also cause anxiety attacks. Illegal substances like drugs and alcohol may trigger these attacks. A few medicines are also known to cause anxiety attacks. Some people have anxiety attacks that are started by the fear of having a future anxiety attack. So, yeah. It just varies from person to person. There isn't really an answer that is on point to this question. Some may experience anxiety attacks several times a day, while some may have them a couple times a week.

The number of attacks depend on how severe your condition is. Some people have them once a month while others have them several times a week. It just depends on the individual. From personal experience, I can say that I have experienced panic attacks quite frequently, especially during the most fragile times in my life where I was dealing with some heavy trauma that had occured in my early childhood. I would even have days where I found myself to be completely fine and others days where I felt like because I had panic attacks, I wouldnt be able to carry on with daily functions.

It depends on the environment one lives in. Anxiety attacks and their frequency can be affected by stress, feeling overwhelmed, certain disorders, social standing and status, financial situation, family situation, relationship situation, and more. Some people may only experience an anxiety attack once in their life, but some may experience it on a daily basis. If an individual experiences a lot of stressful situations, or feels like they're in constant danger because of the area they live in, they may grow to experience intense, ever lingering fear, which in high amounts or a shocking increase makes them experience a panic attack.

There is no set timeframe for the duration of an anxiety attack but research suggests that most attacks last about 20 minutes. While 20 minutes doesn’t sound like a long time, to someone in the throes of an anxiety attack it can feel like hours. It can be extremely helpful to take note of multiple factors surrounding incidents of anxiety attack such as factors that may have triggered the event and the actual duration of the attack. This can be incredibly valuable information that can help mental health professionals determine what type of treatment is best for your particular situation.

There isn’t really a set number of times someone can have an anxiety attack, they can happen when you least expect it and last for a long or short period of time. When you are having an anxiety attack you need to remove yourself from the situation you’re in, get some air, walk around, regulate your breathing by breathing slowly, in and out. If getting out of the situation isn’t possible, try closing your eyes and breathe in and out to try and ground yourself. If breathing doesn’t work for you, try to identify some things you can feel, see, hear, and smell. If there are people you feel safe around you can try talking to them in order to ground yourself. drinking water and talking to yourself, always reassuring you that you are going to be okay can help as well. Anxiety attacks are scary and sometimes can be really overwhelming, but once you find something that can help you be grounded, you’re on your path to controlling your anxiety attacks and their frequency

A panic attack is a sudden episode of intense fear that triggers severe physical reactions when there is no real danger or apparent cause. Panic attacks can be very frightening. When panic attacks occur, you might think you're losing control, having a heart attack or even dying. Many people have just one or two panic attacks in their lifetimes, and the problem goes away, perhaps when a stressful situation ends. But if you've had recurrent, unexpected panic attacks and spent long periods in constant fear of another attack, you may have a condition called panic disorder. Although panic attacks themselves aren't life-threatening, they can be frightening and significantly affect your quality of life. But treatment can be very effective.

Firstly, anxiety attacks are not bouts of nerves or anxious feelings - those are normal for most people. Anxiety attacks are sudden episodes of intense fear or anxiety and physical symptoms, based on a PERCEIVED threat rather than imminent danger. Having a lot of anxiety of depression related feelings when in a high stress situation (such as domestic abuse, family stressors, school, etc.) is normal and easy to talk through. An anxiety attack however, because of the physical and mind symptoms, is harder to talk through. Anxiety attacks typically last between 10-20 min and happen 1 to 2 times a month for average cases. This can be increased with stressors. Here is the NHS report on anxiety attacks in the UK: https://www.nhs.uk/mental-health/conditions/panic-disorder/
