How long does a panic attack last?

A panic attack can last moments or it can take upwards of 15-25 minutes. (In my own personal experience) But everyone is different and I have often experienced the feeling of an oncoming panic attack for hours before it hits and the feelings of having just had a panic attack can last for hours or the rest of the day as well. I often like to rest or speak with a family member or friend to help me through the panic attack (I've had them since early childhood) and then I like to rest on my own for a time afterwards. They can be a terrifying experience but reminding yourself that you are okay, sitting/standing up and placing your hands on top of your head to help keep your airways open, and sometimes pacing has often helped me through my panic attacks!

Panic attack duration varies from person to person but can be minimized and eventually eliminated by practicing different cognitive behavioral techniques.

honestly, a panic attack doesnt have necessarily a length. it all depends on when you actually feel that you can calm down. your panic attack could last five minutes where as mine could last 45 minutes.

Most panic attacks last 20-30 minutes and the worst of it (the peak) usually occurs around 10 minutes. However, you may experience bouts of it where you its bad and then you're a bit calmer and then it gets worse. You may in some cases also be calm after 20-30 minutes only for it to come back, making it last longer than that.

It really all depends on the person. I don't think any two are exactly the same. Mine generally last around 5-10 minutes from what I'm told. But it feels like forever.

The length of a panic attack differs, depending on the severity of it. From past experiences, mine were different depending on how severe the panic attack was. Sometimes they last only seconds, sometimes they last for hours.

They usually reach their peak in 10 minutes. It can usually last more than that until 30 minutes but never an hour.

It can vary massively depending on the situation and what caused it, but they're always pretty brief. It can help to remind yourself of that during an attack - this feels terrible, but it will be over soon.

I guess this is something that changes from person to person and from reason to reason. I would sayit's like 5-10 minutes if you get proper help from someone you love (That's also the best way to get over them).

They can range from a minute to more than 5. However, panic and anxiety are two different things. While you can have a short outburst of panic ( heart racing, nausea, feeling like you're going to go crazy), the aftermath, which is anxiety hovers. This is mistaken as panic (worry of another attack, headache, stomach ache), when it's just anxious symptoms. Either way, these symptoms can be worked on with the right thinking skills and life changes.
