How do you know if you had a panic attack?

How do you know if you had a panic attack? I think I did,.. I was falling asleep, home alone, heard knocking at the door, and I remember feeling shaky, I couldnt talk to my dad (who I called after the knocking) , hard time breathing, and I didnt know if it was really happening.! I answered the door and it was a cop… but after I had cold feet and was still shaking, fast heart rate and crying for a few hours. Was that a panic attack or wtf was it?!

Answer #1

Think it was you just being scared or something. I get p/a and you know if you have had one. You faint is the first sign. And you take in more air then needed leavin you with pins and needles in your hands and feet.

Answer #2

Breath into a paper bag. Too much oxygen in your system.

Answer #3

I asked my dad whose a cop. and he said it sounded like one… He deals with those a lot lol
