When Do Panic Attacks Become Panic Disorder?

A panic attack may happen just once without any problem or complication. And there is almost no reason to be concerned if you have one or two episodes. But those who have experienced several episodes usually develop panic disorder.

Recurring panic attacks along with persistent anxiety for future attacks and major changes in behavior can be considered as panic disorder. Panic disorder treatments involve learning to roll with the anxiety rather than fratically trying to stop it directly.
