For me, a panic attack is a panic attack. If it reaches the boiling point, I do run around, screaming for help. But my panic attacks haven't gotten to that point for a long time, probably because of the drugs I'm on, and perhaps from learning coping strategies.

I consider an anxiety attack feelings of anxiety and perhaps a sense of urgency to get away, touch something or someone, or whatever your brain is telling you to do.
