Sour Candy Stops Panic Attacks?


[Ho...]

Recommended Posts

Some people on this forum have struggled with panic attacks during recovery. My son used to have panic attacks, but by the grace of God I've never had one.

My husband just told me about an article he read that super spicy or sour candy can stop a panic attack. It's not a lasting thing, but panic attacks start small and grow. Anything that stems the time of an upcoming panic attack has to be worth looking into!

So I thought I'd post a link here, because when I looked it up, sure enough there's science behind it. I thought if anyone was prone to panic attacks, this might be a help. 

Here's the link:

Hi HC, I love this technique bc I suffer with anxiety and panic attacks. I love the super spicy foods or herbs like cayenne pepper. When I feel it coming on I’m going to try this and see if it helps. 
‘thank you for this information.

Very interesting. I suffer with panic attacks. I seem to be in remission ATM. I will try this the next time I feel one coming on to see if the sour candy interrupts it.👍
