A short instructional video by Dr. Don Wood describing three early/hidden signs that someone is about to have (or is experiencing) a panic attack. The speaker lists: (1) breathing changes — becoming elevated and shallow affecting oxygen/CO2 balance; (2) sudden anxious, irrational catastrophic thoughts (e.g., believing one is dying or having a heart attack); and (3) physical reactions such as trembling, shaking, and sweating linked to changes in oxygen/CO2. The tone is diagnostic and directive, aimed at quick recognition of an oncoming panic attack.
