Panic disorder is a type of mental health condition marked by recurring and unexpected panic attacks.
Classified as a type of anxiety disorder, these episodes are often accompanied by overwhelming fear and physical symptoms, even in the absence of an immediate threat.
Individuals with panic disorder may also develop a persistent fear of experiencing future attacks, leading to avoidance behaviors that disrupt daily life.
Proper diagnosis and treatment are essential to managing this condition and improving quality of life.
