A member asked:

Can you have a physical panic attack without feeling it mentally? like shortness of breath and tingling hands but having normal/non-panicked thoughts?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Panic attacks: Part of the definition of panic attacks includes the mental anxiety/panic. Some attacks are thought to be triggered by physiologic stresses. It may be possible that the spectrum could include a form without conscious panic....But i can't find it in the literature. Whether some modification in the presentation can be caused by the drugs?
