Just because you are having a panic attack, doesn't mean that there is a problem. It would definitely be a concern. A panic attack can happen at any time, whether you expect it or not. If your panic attacks are becoming an issue for you, speaking to a mental or medical health professional, such as a doctor, could be very beneficial.

It doesn't necessarily mean there is, but it could. I have GAD and social anxiety, and my panic attacks helped diagnose my anxiety disorders. It could be a response to trauma or other issues. I would look into getting professional help.

I believe you may a problem, such as PTSD or anxiety. They may be triggered by a sound, word, smell or activity. Please ask to see a specialist doctor or anxiety counsellor.

If it is causing you distress and affecting your daily function I would suggest seeing someone to see what the issue is. It could be medical or have to do with mental health. It could be because you are simply stressed about something. Talking about it is always helpful and can help you figure our different options :)

if you start to notice you are having panic attacks more frequently, it could indicate that you are feeling anxious about something or feeling trapped in a certain situation. having someone to talk to when you are experiencing a panic attack, or even when you feel like you are about to have one could really help you.

I think it is something you should definitely talk with your doctor/therapist/psychiatrist about. I'm not sure what you mean by problem but a lot of people get panic attacks and there are effective ways at helping to manage them.
