Hello. I have a friend who most likely has panic disorder along with GAD, but won't seek help for it. I was wondering for people with panic disorder what it feels like? I do have SAD with panic attack specifier and GAD (SAD as in social anxiety) so I know panic attacks, but she says she gets about 9-10 of the panic attack criteria while I only get 4-5 and I know I feel bad after mine. So I was wondering how it feels to get a panic attack unexpectedly and worry about getting another one randomly? I just want to understand her a bit and to try to give as much support as I can. Thanks.
