    Slow down

    Liora Belford 2007 Israel Experimental color 11min N/A Beta
    A panic attack is a period of intense, often temporarily debilitating, feelings of extreme fear or psychological distress, typically with abrupt onset. Though it is often a purely terrifying feeling to the sufferer, panic attacks are actually an evolutionary bodily reaction often known as the fight-or-flight response, occurring out of context.
