Panic attack or rapid breathing due to a health problem. how to determine ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Schedule an appt: A physician can run tests to tell you if it seems medical. A mental health professional can do an assessment to tell you if it seems psychological. As a psychologist I have had many people come in and say they went to the hospital and they ran tests and told them their symptoms were not because of a physical health issue but a panic attack.
