I find in strange how in emergencies i remain calm while others are either in shock or panic. Last year i was in an accident and nearly passed out from the intense pain, yet, i remained calm, immediately giving instructions to a family member on what to do and how to help me. Another time, years ago, a family member injured themself and immediately i went into a certain kind of state where i was helping to stop the bleeding, ordering others on what to do, and those two people were in a state of shock, the other in panic. I never wondered about it until now, what causes people to remain calm and clear thinking during emergencies, even their own emergency? Is it survival mode? or flight or fight? or something else entirely?

What is worse a panic disorder or panic attack?

It's difficult to categorize one as being "worse" than the other because they are interconnected. Panic disorder involves experiencing recurring panic attacks, which are the defining feature of the disorder. In this sense, panic disorder encompasses the experience of panic attacks. However, not all panic attacks lead to a diagnosis of panic disorder. Panic attacks can occur as isolated incidents or in the context of other anxiety disorders, without meeting the criteria for panic disorder.

Why is it difficult for individuals with panic disorder to get a correct diagnosis?

The complaints people have when having a panic disorder are usually very vague. things like 'stomach ache' or 'hyperventillation' can be caused by a lot of different things. This means 'Panic disorder' can be one of (let's say) a 100 causes, so it just takes time to find out what it is exactly.
