A member asked:
Should you go to the hospital if panic attacks are severe? if so why?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Maybe.: The main reason would be to insure that there is not a medical cause, such as a heart problem, that is an emergency. If it is clear that there is not -- because it has been fully evaluated, then hospitalization offers no advantage over out-patient treatment.
