Panic Disorder Severity Scale (Week 11)

Several of the following questions refer to panic attacks and limited symptom attacks. For this questionnaire we define a panic attack as a sudden rush of fear or discomfort accompanied by at least 4 of the symptoms listed below.
In order to qualify as a sudden rush, the symptoms must peak within 10 minutes. Episodes like panic attacks but having fewer than 4 of the listed symptoms are called limited symptom attacks. Here are the symptoms to count:

  • Rapid or pounding heartbeat
  • Sweating
  • Trembling or shaking
  • Breathlessness
  • Feeling of choking
  • Chest pain or discomfort
  • Nausea
  • Dizziness or faintness
  • Feelings of unreality
  • Numbness or tingling
  • Chills or hot flushes
  • Fear of losing control or going crazy
  • Fear of dying
