How do you know you're having a panic attack

My panic attacks have the following symptoms: overwhelming fear that I am in some sort of danger, profuse sweating, racing heart, desire to just make it stop somehow because it feels so awful, shakes and tremors, inability to think rationally, and nausea. For me, it is often followed by the worry that it will happen again, thus anxiety.

Aside from a really huge panic attack I had summer 2023 when I was dealing with sudden driving anxiety, and I've defeated it now so no problem unless I'm on the thruway and then I actually yell at myself out loud and it calms me, I have no idea I'm having a panic attack. I concentrate on the physical symptom like feeling spaced out, or cold suddenly, and I lose total ability engage cognition.
