- Are there times when you feel overwhelming fear, distress, or terror for no apparent reason?
During
these times, does your heart beat more quickly than usual? Does it seem
to be pounding inside your chest? Do you feel pain in your chest?
- Do you break out in sweat?
- Do you tremble or shake?
- Do you feel there’s not enough air that you can’t catch your breath?
- Do you think you’re choking?
- Do you feel nauseated or have any other digestive symptoms?
- Do you feel dizzy, unsteady, light-headed, or faint?
- Do you ever have a sense of unreality or of being detached from yourself?
