I've read from other threads that people have an intense fear or sense of doom during their panic attacks. In my personal experience with them (or what I believe them to be), I've never felt fear, but just extreme anxiety, a lot of sweating, dizziness, and trouble breathing. It's like a 20 lb weight on my chest that makes me wants to run away and hide. Not because I'm afraid, I just want to get away from myself, if that makes any sense. Would this still be classified as a panic attak or something else?

Individuals may differ in their symptoms. I'd call yours a panic attack.

Have you spoken to a doctor about this? It could be a panic attack but it could be something physical......hormones, heart problems..many different things.

This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.|
