Im not sure how long it would have to last to be considered a manic episode but longer that just a few minutes or so. And I have never experienced mania that is like a panic attack because I do have both and there is a very distinct difference. Euphoric mania is a oh so good feeling, sped up feeling where everything is good and Im on top of the world, talking fast, moving fast, thinking fast. Dysphoric mania I am mad, or suicidal, restless. A panick attack I begin to feel like I cant breath and the room is closing in on me. I get a strong feeling like I am going to die, my chest hurts. I have a strong urge to evacuate and get outside immediately no matter where I am,I get dizzy and light headed short of breath. These are just my experiences with the differences in these.
