A panic attack is the sudden occurrence of a physical and mental alarm reaction of unclear cause, usually lasting only a few minutes, without appropriate external cause. The affected person is often not aware of the existence of a panic attack. The behavioral pattern of panic is inherent in every human being and serves in earlier stages of evolution as a source of energy in life-threatening situations.
