When a bout of anxiety intensifies, it can sometimes lead to a panic attack. Experts at University Michigan Health define a panic attack as "a sudden, intense fear or anxiety that may make you short of breath or dizzy or make your heart pound." On average, panic attacks can last between five to 20 minutes, with anxiety peaking around the ten-minute mark. However, while panic attacks may last for minutes in some people, for others, they may last for hours.

當焦慮加劇時，有時會導致恐慌發(fā)作。密歇根大學健康學院的專家將恐慌癥定義為“一種突然的、強烈的恐懼或焦慮，可能使你呼吸急促、頭暈或心跳加速。”多數(shù)情況下，恐慌癥發(fā)作可以持續(xù)5到20分鐘，焦慮在10分鐘左右達到頂峰。然而，有些人的恐慌癥可能持續(xù)幾分鐘，而還有一些人的恐慌癥可能持續(xù)數(shù)小時。

Licensed trauma therapist Micheline Maalouf spoke to Insider about the potential symptom relief offered by sour candy to those who experience panic attacks. Demonstrating the technique in a "panic attack hack" TikTok video for Better Help Therapy, Maalouf explains to viewers how popping a sour candy into your mouth at the onset of panic attack symptoms serves as a distraction to the physical senses. Maalouf states via Insider, "It shocks our senses into focusing on the sourness of the candy. It sort of puts us into a mindful moment using our sense of taste and shifts the focus away from our symptoms or whatever triggered the panic."
