Panic Severity Quiz

Remind yourself that it is a panic attack and that it will pass, breathe low and slow with a longer breath out, and let the sensations rise and fall without fighting them. Attacks usually peak within about 10 minutes. These skills help in the moment, and Bia's program works on the bigger goal: fewer attacks, and less fear of the next one.

Panic attacks can feel exactly like a medical emergency, which is part of what makes them so frightening. If you have never had your symptoms checked by a doctor, please do that first. If your symptoms are new, different, or you are unsure, call emergency services. Once medical causes have been ruled out, Bia helps you learn to respond to those sensations without fear.

For many people, yes. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) with exposure is the most researched treatment for panic disorder, and most people who complete it see a large drop in attacks and in the fear of having one. Bia guides you through that same approach in short daily sessions, at your own pace.

Yes. Many people use Bia alongside medication. Bia does not replace medical care, so talk to your prescriber before starting, stopping, or changing any medication.

Interoceptive exposure means practicing the body sensations that trigger panic, such as a fast heartbeat or dizziness, in small, controlled steps, for example by running in place or spinning in a chair. Each time, your brain learns those sensations are safe and the alarm gets quieter. Bia builds these exercises into your plan gradually, and you always control the pace.
