Anxiety vs Panic Attacks - what's the difference?
Anxiety + Panic Attacks both are emotional responses in times of stress.
Anxiety is caused by cortisol + worry which gives you energy and focus
because it says to wake up pay attention- there's a potential danger afoot.
Panic attacks are caused by adrenaline + fear.
There's no time to think you gotta take action to save your life now so your physical responses go into overdrive.
This usually induces a fight, flight, or freeze response.
