Panic attacks and anxiety attacks are basically the same thing, and they are on the rise. The cause of the increase isn’t fully understood, but modern life with all its pressure and stress could be a factor. No matter the cause, they are increasing and causing more people more problems than ever.

Could you spot if you were having a panic or anxiety attack? That’s a hard one as the symptoms are wide ranging and can be quite mild, although they can also be terrifying. You may just experience a hot sweat or you may experience an attack where you can’t breath and your heart races out of control.

I think if you were having the more serious symptoms you would know you needed some type of help. But you could also be having mild symptoms and not even know it’s an anxiety related attack. This could be a warning sign that things are about to get worse, much worse.

The first (bad) panic attack my wife suffered was actually while she was driving. It wasn’t the fact she had suffered an attack that hit her worst, but the fact she could easily have hit and killed someone or maybe even herself. It won’t do anyone any good to dwell on this type of scenario.

If you have been feeling a little off lately, maybe suffering any of these symptoms…. Fidgeting, feeling irritated, hard to sleep, on edge or anxious or lack of concentration. Having any of these mild symptoms could be a warning sign.

But before you actually have a panic attack thinking about those symptoms let me put your mind at ease. There are many normal things that can cause symptoms like those. And none of them are anything to worry about. An ill fitting item of clothing can cause you to fidget and too much coffee (caffeine) will definitely disrupt your sleep.

But before we dismiss everything it’s still safer to be sure you aren’t a panic attack victim. You can take an anxiety symptoms test which may give you a better idea. All you do is tick a few boxes with either yes or no and total your score at the end.

Then you can make the choice to take further action or not. You can find a panic attack symptoms test here.
