Period of extreme anxiety and physical symptoms such as heart palpitations, shakiness, dizziness, shortness of breath, and racing thoughts. (a.k.a. anxiety attack)
-
an intense feeling of dread, often unsure of what, ( termed non specific anxiety) sometimes it can happen and manifest at the place where it occurs, ie: if you are in a shop, you may have an attack there, and then be afraid to stay in the shop, and afraid to go back to that same place. Often after a time, these attacks can simply fade away.

"A panic attack is a sudden, intense fear or anxiety that may make you short of breath or dizzy or make your heart pound. You may feel out of control. Some people believe they are having a heart attack or are about to die. An attack may last from 5 to 20 minutes. You have the most anxiety about 10 minutes after the attack starts. If these attacks happen often, they are called a panic disorder." http://www.webmd.com/anxiety-panic/tc/panic-attacks-and-panic-disorder-topic-overview
