I told her it was probably a panic attack.
She said when her husband was talking to her, his words seemed "blurry".

I had trouble explaining my first panic attack as well. The ER dr asked me if I had depression or a panic attack and I told him I don't know, I feel really depressed and my heart is pounding. I've never had one before. Then he gave me some kind of benzo prescription, which I had to drive 10 miles for or else sleep in the ER.
