Chest Pains
Panic attack disorders cause some of the most extreme psychological
chest pain. Often, panic attack sufferers feel as if they're suffering a
heart attack. In fact, psychological chest pain mimics many of the
symptoms of a heart attack, and medical attention is the only way to
differentiate between the two conditions.The exact cause of a panic attack is unknown. It is known that stress
can trigger a panic attack and that panic attacks can run in families.
Women are twice as likely to suffer from panic attacks as men, and panic
attack symptoms usually develop before 25 years of age.A panic attack disorder causes anxiety and stress, as the victim of
the panic attack does not know when the next attack will strike. He may
avoid circumstances or locations known to trigger panic attacks and may
experience depression when panic attacks impair quality of life.
