Page "Anxiety" Paragraph 4

Although panic attacks are not experienced by every person who has anxiety, they are a common symptom.

Panic attacks usually come without warning and although the fear is generally irrational, the subjective perception of danger is very real.

A person experiencing a panic attack will often feel as if he or she is about to die or lose consciousness.

Between panic attacks, people with panic disorder tend to suffer from anticipated anxiety-a fear of having a panic attack may lead to the development of phobias.

Anxiety is the most common mental illness in America as approximately 40 million adults are affected by it.
