Panic Disorder is a mental health condition characterized by repeated panic attacks and ongoing concern about having another attack. A panic attack can come on suddenly and may include intense fear, rapid heartbeat, chest discomfort, shortness of breath, dizziness, trembling, sweating, or a sense of losing control.
