It varies from people to people. Anxiety attacks come at random. One minute you may be feeling good, the next thing you know is that you're having worst case scenario thoughts in your mind. There are various factors, food habits for example. If your diet consists of a lot of caffeine, you may experience frequent anxiety attacks. There are triggers in case of a PTSD or a recent traumatic event. These triggers can cause an anxiety attack every time you face something like that, if these triggers aren't dealt with. There are lifestyle choices, not enough sleep or severe work stress may lead to frequent anxiety attacks. With all that being said, it's not easy to say exactly how frequent these attacks will occur but if we can keep track of it and acknowledge it while we learn to deal with them by using techniques such as CBT or others, we can control our anxiety to a huge extent.

The frequency of anxiety attacks varies from person to person and even within the same person, speaking from personal experience as well. For me, my anxiety attacks can happen as infrequently as once a month or less or as frequently as multiple times per day sometimes depending on what's going on in my life, my stress level, and a number of other factors. It can be totally normal for them to happen just once in a while or all the time. It's both frustrating and kind of a relief that it can fluctuate so much. It sucks that it's not always predictable, but I personally am also grateful I have times where they're not so frequent.

Anxiety attacks manifest differently in different people. This means that not only can they present with different symptoms, but they can also occur with different frequencies. For instance, if ten people in a room all experience anxiety attacks, it is unlikely that all of them will experience them with the same or similar frequencies. Perhaps one person has them once a week, whereas another has them roughly once a month, still another could have them daily or multiple times a day, and yet another could experience them only in extremely tense and relatively infrequent situations (such as at funerals or at doctor's appointments) so that they can't say how frequently they occur, except that they do occur, and do so infrequently but at specific times. If anxiety attacks are interfering with your life, it may be best to seek medical or mental health advice from a qualified professional, so that you can come to know more about anxiety attacks.

It depends on how severe the anxiety. Some people only have anxiety attacks in certain situations. Other's have them often and for no apparent reason. Some people have a underlying currant of constant anxiety that varies in intensity throughout the day. If you are having constant anxiety or frequent anxiety attacks it's best to seek out professional help. Also if the anxiety is complicating matters with your family, friends, work, or general happiness its might be a good idea to seek professional help. In general everybody experiences anxiety during different times or events in their life, it's when its disrupting your life often or all the time when it should be concerning

There is no correct answer to this question. It all depends from person to person. Their triggers, current emotional status, what they have been trough, their coping mechanisms and if they have anyone out there willing to listen and help them. For example: single person, living alone, far away from family, introvert. Something bad happens. The situation might go in 2 ways: the person cries all the time, doesn't leave the house, sleeps a lot etc.. but! This same person can be used to 'depend on myself' mode and just continue to live without giving much attention to their problem. We are not the same. Also, anxiety is normal, basic part of our lives sometimes. If you have big presentation in front of 50 people tomorrow, it is normal to feel anxious. I will feel anxious probably whole week before it, you may not be anxious at all and someone will be anxious about it since the day they learn they have to do that presentation. But you cannot diagnose yourself with anxiety in those kind of situations.

anxeity attacks are basked on what type of anxiety you have. there are a bunch of different types of anxiety and depending on your type of anxiety most likly depends on how frequent your attacks are. the best solution would be to find out what kind of anxiety you have. then once you figure out what kind of anxiety you have you should be able to see how often your attacks are. i wouldnt get frustrated or impatient. learning something new about yourself takes time and is worth understanding so you can help yourself to not have so many attacks.

The frequency of anxiety attacks differs based on the individual person. Try to never compare your progress or conditions to anyone else's because you are your own individual person and every single person is different. Often times the amount of anxiety attacks can vary depending on the stressors around you and how often you feel nervous in an environment. There are several techniques that can be used to control anxiety. If you feel like you're having more frequent anxiety attacks and would like to control them, try reaching out to a member on 7 Cups for support and/or a professional.

Hello, anxiety is a very tricky thing. Panic attacks can be triggered or random so it is hard to say how frequent they are. It is different for everyone. There are many factors such as if it is a new problem or something you have had, also if there are new changes in your life that could be causing them, if you have a new job or new classes at school, or new relationship issues. I would love to know more about your situation and listen to how you feel. I cannot offer much advice but I can listen and be there for you

This really depends on the individual. There is no specific answer that would apply to everyone, especially since some level of anxiousness is acceptable. However, if you undergo anxiety attacks on a regular basis, to the point that you feel unable to complete simple tasks or if you postpone things then you might address a professional who can give you specific tips on how to reduce the number of anxiety attacks that you are experiencing. Remember that an important aspect is to note how much these anxiety attacks last, so that you have an overall image and understand the situation better.

It all depends on how severe your anxiety is, and what kind you have. They normally happen when you confront what you're afraid of, like large groups or certain situations.
