Answer to Question 1

Panic disorder, more common in women than men, has an age of onset typically occurring in late adolescence or, less commonly, in the mid-30s.

Answer to Question 2

During a first panic attack, it is not uncommon for people to mistakenly believe they are having a heart attack, since symptoms such as a pounding heart, palpitations, rapid heart rate, chest pain, sweating, shortness of breath, numbness, tingling, or dizziness are common to both conditions.
