Why panic attacks feel like a heart attack (but aren't)
During a panic attack your body floods with adrenaline, the same response designed to help you flee danger, except there's no danger to flee. That's why the symptoms are so physical: pounding heart, shortness of breath, chest tightness, dizziness, tingling, a sense of unreality or impending doom. In Karachi and across Pakistan, people are regularly rushed to cardiac emergency rooms only to learn the cause was a panic attack.
Understanding this is the first step in treatment, because the fear of the symptoms is what fuels the next attack. Once you genuinely grasp what your body is doing and why it's not dangerous, the cycle starts to loosen. A professional guides you through that, fast.

What is the best treatment for panic attacks?
Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) is the most effective, evidence-based treatment for panic attacks. A clinical psychologist helps you understand why your body reacts the way it does, so the symptoms stop feeling dangerous, then teaches you to face the physical sensations gradually until they lose their grip. You can begin with our online psychologist service.
For frequent or severe panic, a PMDC-licensed psychiatrist can assess whether medication guidance would help alongside therapy, if clinically appropriate. Not sure who to see? Our psychologist vs psychiatrist guide helps, or message our team on WhatsApp.
Many people feel less frightened after the very first session, simply from understanding what is happening. Reducing how often attacks occur usually takes a few weeks of consistent work.
How much does panic attack treatment cost in Pakistan?
Online psychologist sessions typically range from around Rs 2,000 to Rs 5,000, and psychiatrist consultations from around Rs 2,500 to Rs 7,500, with every fee shown before you book. See the fees guide. Panic often travels with anxiety, which we also treat.
Panic feels life-threatening. It isn't, and it can be managed.

Mujhe laga main mar raha hoon, hospital bhi gaya lekin sab normal tha. Yahan pata chala ke yeh panic attack tha. Ab mujhe samajh hai ke kya karna hai.
The first session alone calmed me down because I finally understood what my body was doing. Ab attacks pehle se bohot kam ho gaye hain.
I could book quickly when I was really struggling. Ghar baithay baat karke bohot sukoon mila.
The fear of the next attack is part of the attack. We help you end both.
