Panic Disorder
Don't Panic!
Description
Do you experience panic attacks? Rapid heartbeat, hyperventilating, fear, feeling as if you are going crazy, trembling... You are not alone. An estimated 2.7% of U.S. adults experience panic disorder. Not everyone who has panic attacks has panic disorder. For a diagnosis of panic disorder, the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-5), is published by the American Psychiatric Association. At least one of your attacks has been followed by one month or more of ongoing worry about having another attack; continued fear of the consequences of an attack, such as losing control, having a heart attack or "going crazy"; or significant changes in your behavior, such as avoiding situations that you think may trigger a panic attack (Mayo Clinic, 2023).
