Suddenly, my heart feels like it's going to burst and I feel like I'm going to die (Panic Attack).

It's your body's emergency alarm system (the amygdala) malfunctioning and sending a "Danger!" signal, even when there's no actual threat. You will absolutely not die or go crazy. It will definitely subside within 10 to 20 minutes, so it's important to ride out that period.

뇌의 화재경보기가 고장 난 것입니다.

  • 증상: 가슴 통증, 호흡 곤란, 어지러움, 비현실감, 곧 죽을 것 같은 공포.
  • 대처: "이건 가짜 신호야, 곧 지나가"라고 스스로에게 되뇌세요. 도망치지 말고 그 자리에서 기다리면 사라집니다.
⚠️ 응급실?

심장마비(심근경색)와 헷갈릴 수 있습니다. 처음 겪는다면 응급실 가서 심전도 검사를 받아보는 게 안전합니다. 이상 없으면 공황입니다.
