I first learned about panic attacks in school.
When people had them, their hearts raced, and they feared they might be having a heart attack.
They would tremble and sweat. A lot of times, they felt like they were suffocating.
They had a sense of impending doom and often believed they were going to die.
That's what it said in our textbook, anyway. But privately, I had my doubts.
I wondered if people were just letting their emotions get out of hand.
Or allowing themselves to have a meltdown as a way of getting attention or eliciting sympathy.
That changed in 2017 when I had a panic attack myself.
