These people are prone to panic attacks and anxiety, and small situations register as much more prominent in their minds. Severe panic attacks can lead to heart attacks or strokes, and when they are intense enough the person may pass out or vomit from the stress and tension. Though panic attacks only last for a few minutes, they can be absolute hell to those who experience them. Panic disorder is formed when people constantly worry about the attacks, become paranoid about having them, or change their lifestyle because of their attacks.
- These people avoid situations that they feel can cause a panic attack or situations that they think they will have a hard time escaping if an attack should occur.
- In extreme cases they avoid leaving the house and avoid crowded places, highways, long lines, or being home alone. They are usually willing to take part in these situations if they have the company of someone they trust.
- This can be genetic, and is greatly influenced by their environment.
