Panic attack

Panic attacks are periods of intense fear or apprehension of sudden onset accompanied by at least four or more bodily or cognitive symptoms (such as heart palpitations, dizziness, shortness of breath, or feelings of unreality) For example, if a child gets extremely anxious over a thunderstorm,they will overreact and "isolate" themselves from the world. And if it gets too intense with no one to calm them down, it can lead to a panic attack of variable duration from minutes to hours. Panic attacks usually begin abruptly and may reach a peak within 10 to 20 minutes but may continue for hours in some cases. Panic attacks are not dangerous and should not cause any physical harm.

The effects of a panic attack vary. Some, notably first-time sufferers, may call for emergency services. Many who experience a panic attack, mostly for the first time, fear that they are having a heart attack or a nervous breakdown. Common psychological features associated with panic attacks include the fear of impending death or loss of sanity, and depersonalisation is relatively common.

    Panic Attack is an EP released by the Australian rock band Grinspoon in March 2003. The EP was originally released by itself, but also appeared as a bonus disc with a re-release version of an earlier studio album, New Detention, on 10 March 2003. The EP was developed after Grinspoon recorded a cover of the INXS hit, "Don't Change" for the soundtrack of an Australian film, Danny Deckchair (May 2003). Its recording and release were relatively rushed between New Detention's first appearance in June 2002 and their next studio album Thrills, Kills & Sunday Pills in September 2004.

    Band member Pat Davern described the four tracks to Greg Lawrence of WHAMMO website: for "Don't Change" he said "We did the cover, basically for Livid", the group had appeared at that festival in the previous October-November; "Off Piste" was "a new track"; while both "Boredom" and "Fall Away" were "B-sides from the New Detention sessions. We decided to hang on to them for whatever we released in the future". The band supported its appearance with their Don't Panic Tour, using 28 Days as a support act. Panic Attack reached No. 13 on the ARIA Singles Chart
