How do you know you're having a panic attack
Depression & Anxiety | Last Active: 49 minutes ago | Replies (28)Comment receiving replies
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.

The tremors and shaking is the worst of it for me. I can barely stand still without my body shaking and shuddering in some way. The over analyzing and sweating just makes me think i look crazy when i’m in publix.

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.
