In this guide, we continue what we discussed in the previous part about anxiety disorders and treatment methods.

 We answered many important questions before, and today we complete this series to give you a full understanding of the issue from every angle.

As always, our approach is based on two simple methods:

  1. Q&A format to make information clear and direct.
  2. Simple explanations that anyone can understand without medical background.

However, we strongly emphasize that this information is for awareness purposes only. 

It does not replace professional medical advice.

 In all cases, consulting a qualified doctor is necessary to receive a treatment plan tailored specifically to you.

Question 19:

What Are Panic Attacks? What Are Their Symptoms?

Answer 19:

A panic attack is a sudden wave of intense fear, often linked to fears of death, illness, or losing control. 

The main trigger is usually severe anxiety.

  • It is accompanied by physical symptoms such as:
  • Body trembling
  • Sweating
  • Numbness
  • Dizziness

Loss of sensation in hands and feet

A strong feeling that you are about to faint

A panic attack usually lasts between 10 minutes and 30 minutes.

 The real issue is not its short duration, but the fear that it might happen again, which increases overall anxiety levels.

Question 20:
How Long Does Anxiety Last? Is It Temporary or Chronic?

Answer 20:

Anxiety exists on different levels:

Normal stress:

 lasts a few minutes and disappear once the situation ends.

Severe or chronic anxiety

may continue for months or even years if treatment is not started.

The longer you delay addressing it, the more likely it becomes persistent.

Question 21:

Can Anxiety Go Away on Its Own?

Answer 21:

If anxiety is mild and related to a temporary situation, it often disappears once the cause is resolved.

However, if it starts becoming a pattern, lifestyle improvements and coping strategies are necessary. If symptoms intensify, professional medical support becomes essential. Delaying treatment may worsen the condition.
