Panic attacks can last anywhere from a few seconds (mini attacks) to hours and come with any variety of symptoms from feeling slightly numb with pins and needles feeling to a full blown panic and the feelings of loosing your mind or thinking you're having a heart attack.

Panic attacks last minutes at most, generally topping out at around ten minutes or so. Some people require time after a panic attack to calm down and collect themselves though, so it's hard to give an answer that applies to everybody.

The duration of panic attacks usually depends on the person and what triggered it. If someone has multiple triggers and one of the more severe ones triggers the attack then the attack can last longer, another factor is the environments and if the tools needed to calm the person down are easily accessible or not. It all depends on the person.

It honestly can depend on the situation. Panic attacks are individualized issues that don't always follow an exact system.

Typically a panic attack develops extremely quickly and usually reach their peak within 10 minutes, Most panic attacks end within 20 to 30 minutes, It'll adjust from person to person, but they won't usually last more than an hour (although you may feel very tired after) ! ^_^
