I went through a period of about two years in my late 30s where I would get serious panic attacks (what you call anxiety attacks), and you are correct, they're scary and debilitating and have all the symptoms of a heart attack. You literally fear that you're going to die.During an anxiety attack it may seem to you that you hardly breathe or will die if you can not breathe .you may not have a physical problem ,you just feel as if you will die . a remarkable Increase in palpilations ,a feel of getting drowned are symptoms .if it were a heart attack I would die more than once in every attack
I never got them before then, and I rarely get them now, but I sure do remember them.
