Panic attacks are debilitating episodes that can severely impact a person's mental state
and quality of life. This study investigates the use of simulated sleep wave patterns as a
potential therapeutic intervention for individuals suffering from severe panic attacks. By
harnessing the calming effects associated with uninterrupted sleep, this approach aims to
alleviate the symptoms of panic attacks and help patients maintain a stable mental state. The
methodology involves exposing patients to visual and auditory stimuli designed to emit specific
sleep wave frequencies, with the goal of gradually calming the patient's nervous system. The
results demonstrate the importance of tailoring the frequency and intensity of the sensory inputs to the individual's needs, balancing relaxation and attention. This research suggests that sleep wave simulation could be a promising avenue for the treatment of panic attacks, and further exploration is warranted.
