Understanding Panic Attacks
Panic attacks manifest as intense episodes of fear or unease, often arising suddenly and unexpectedly. Their symptoms may encompass a rapid heartbeat, perspiration, trembling, breathlessness, a feeling of impending danger, or a fear of losing control. Although panic attacks aren't typically life-threatening, they can greatly affect one's daily life and could hint at an underlying panic disorder or another condition.

This assessment delves into aspects such as their frequency, severity, triggers, and any potential underlying factors contributing to them. This thorough evaluation serves as the cornerstone for crafting your individualized treatment strategy.
