No, a panic attack is usually not about a conscious subject and you aren't able to "do" much of anything, right/wrong/want to/don't want to; you may get heart palpitations, hyperventilate, otherwise just "freeze" like a deer in the headlights, so-to-speak. Many people go to the ER with a panic attack, thinking they are having a heart attack or dying.

What you are describing would be anticipatory anxiety; you don't feel in control and are anxious about the "future" (upcoming action).
