After doing many steps above, the next important thing is evaluating panic attack progress. It's a "successful benchmark" of self medication that have been done by you. The main sign of successful panic attack treatment is that sufferer shows better behavior and already to do daily activities. For the first time, sufferer must be controlled and monitored by care giver.

    Panic attack is not fatal but it is very dangerous in other ways like when the suffer is driving or he is in the street. One with this disorder should should know the symptoms to make himself prepare on what to do. He should also know how to control with the attack occurs.
