What is Panic Disorder?
In the United States, approximately 2% to 3% of people have a panic disorder. Women are twice as likely as men to develop one. People who have panic disorder experience frequent and uncontrollable panic attacks and often live in a state of anxiousness. Some of the panic attacks have a specific cause while others seem to come out of nowhere.
Even when not having a panic attack, the individual often feels fearful that one will happen soon. This negatively influences their ability to work, attend school, travel, and feel comfortable in public.
Signs and Symptoms of Panic Disorder
When someone has a panic disorder, several signs happen that they can identify. Common signs and symptoms of panic disorder include:
- Shallow breathing
- Feeling faint
- Rapid heartbeat
- Tightness in chest
- Nausea
- Numbness in hands or feet
- Dizziness
- Fear of passing out
- Desperate need to flee the scene
- Fear of dying
- Embarrassed at being seen having a panic attack
If a person recognizes themselves in the above symptoms, they should look into finding a program for panic disorder treatment in Massachusetts.

Panic Disorder vs Panic Attack
Panic disorder is a diagnosable mental health disorder characterized by having panic attacks and living with a fear of having them. A panic attack is a symptom that can be part of a panic disorder, anxiety disorders, and more.
Causes of a Panic Disorder
Not everyone who has a panic disorder can point to the same root cause. For many, it has a lot to do with genetics. Families that experience mental illness in one or more persons are more likely for it to happen to other loved ones.
However, some panic disorders happen as a result of experiencing a traumatic event. This can include physical or sexual abuse, being in an accident, or other life-changing events. Finally, someone who has a history of another mental health disorder and has not learned healthy coping skills may end up developing a panic disorder.
How is a Panic Disorder Diagnosed?
These days, many people trust the advice of those they know or internet searches to answer questions about their medical or psychological health. However, a person who suspects they may have a panic disorder should speak to their doctor and ask for a referral to a mental health professional. A therapist will ask thorough questions about the length and severity of the person’s symptoms, and how they currently handle them. If an official diagnosis of a panic disorder is made, a treatment plan can be put into place.
Our Panic Disorder Treatment Programs in Massachusetts
Our panic disorder treatment in Massachusetts allows people to benefit from different levels of care. We match them with the level that will best meet their needs and help them gain ground in improving their mental health.
