Generally though, they're quite mild and can be controlled with breathing methods. It's only severe cases where there is need for immediate medical intervention.

They can be mildly dangerous but nothing to worry about. You won't die from one and you'll most likely get minor symptoms like feeling sick, dizzy etc. The best you can do is to breathe slowly through your nose and out of your mouth to slower your heart rate.
