Panic disorder is a type of anxiety where a person constantly keeps having panic or fear about something. "Do you have panic disorder? I remember when I was going through it, I felt so lost and alone and I had no idea panic disorder was even a thing. I truly just thought I was dying or losing my mind. Panic disorder is a real thing, but you can get through it," wrote Therapist Taylor Barone.(Unsplash)
