Anxiety attack vs. Panic attack

Anxiety attack vs. Panic attack
__________________________________________________
Anxiety Attack

Triggered
Builds up slowly
Less Intense than panic attacks
May include feelings of worry, distress, muscle tension, and physical symptoms like a racing heart or difficulty breathing.
Anxiety attacks are often associated with a feeling of being overwhelmed by worry or stress, but not necessarily a sense of losing control in the same way as a panic attack.

Panic Attack

Can occur unexpectedly and without a clear trigger.
Sudden and abrupt surge of fear or terror.
Characterized by intense fear, often with severe physical symptoms.
Typically lasts for a shorter period, usually 5-20 minutes, though some can last longer.
May include a rapid heart rate, chest pain, shortness of breath, dizziness, sweating, and a feeling of being detached from oneself or surroundings.
Panic attacks are often associated with a feeling of losing control and a fear of dying.
