Panic disorder is an anxiety disorder marked by recurrent, unexpected panic attacks. These episodes are intense and accompanied by symptoms like chest pain, sweating, and a sense of impending doom. Panic attacks can occur without warning and may lead to avoidance behaviors and significant distress. Treatment options include therapy, medication, and lifestyle changes to manage symptoms and reduce the frequency of panic attacks. With proper treatment, individuals with panic disorder can regain control over their lives and experience symptom relief.
