    I don't think the important thing is to try to distinguish between panic and high anxiety...

    What are the truths in all of this?
    Taking it you have been examined by a doctor and told it was anxiety....
    It did not harm you, it will not harm you, as soon as you lose your fear of the fear it goes away...that's it..it takes a few months maybe even a year..but it will go away once you lose your fear to it.

    For me anxiety is before an event, and panic is during. All stress really

    they are simular. just symptoms vary thats all. anxiety is your build up to a panic attack best thing to do is when you feel your heart beating think it as a good sign.
