emotions are "real things". there are simple realities... we have memories of emotions... including all the way into our bodies... so that if we have to survive, the response is instant! Well, a panic attack would be something that triggers a memory that sends you into fight/flight/freeze... my guess is it was freeze. I wonder if this could be creative as well. For example, I've never been attacked by a shark... but I've seen the videos. If Imagine a shark coming jumping out in my house, I might panic. Lastly, there may be mental illness that make this prevalent... not sure. consult experts.

so it's that simple. what causes it... unresolved emotion from the past and a current "trigger" that reminds you of that. Some people I think are more susceptible than others. I think if you watch WWI veteran videos you'll see people in stages of panic attacks. Very human.

Here's something fun to observe... peoples eye color and projection can change with emotion! They may look older, younger, different color eyes.

Hormones in the brain. An increase in certain hormones causes the symptoms of panic attacks such as a racing heartbeat, sweating and dizziness.
People can get them with no prior attacks. Usually it's an event or feelings that made them really sad or an upcoming event or fears

It comes from someone experiencing a lot of stress, anxiety, or some kind of trauma. For example, if I already have anxiety towards people and I'm put into a situation where I have to deal with multiple people all at once, I will more than likely get so scared to the point to where I have one of these. For some people, it's for other things.

It can happen to anyone and can be triggered by different things. If the person is experiencing a lot of stress/anxiety/trauma then it might cause one. For me, I have emetophobia so sometimes I will have a panic attack if I feel like I might be getting unwell or someone around me is unwell which is just one example of the thousands

Yes, it can happen to anyone. It’s just the mind becoming overwhelmed and causing physical symptoms to get you to take time out. Everyone has their limits to what they can take. It’s not a sign of weakness.

Probably things far outside of the comfort zone. For example, I'm not a very emotional person. I am classically trained in guitar and piano and trained vocally. I have done concerts with 100 or so people in the audience with no problem. But if Paul and Ringo asked me to get up on stage with them and perform Beatles classics I'm pretty sure I'd have a major panic attack.

As with many other mental disorders, the exact cause of a panic attack is not fully understood. However, it is thought that the condition is probably linked to a traumatic or very stressful period in life, such as bereavement, or an imbalance of neurotransmitters in the brain, or similar factors
