"Panic" crops up a lot in conversation. "I realized I forgot to finish that report and I panicked." "Tests always induce panic in me." "She panicked when her brother uncovered her secret." The actual experience of panic -- racing heart, shaking, sweaty palms -- is unpleasant. We tend to think events and things induce that feeling in us. But panic is just the feelings arising from the build-up of distressing thinking. It's an alarm waking us up to a flood of non-constructive thoughts. As soon as we're onto ourselves and quiet our minds, the feeling of panic dissolves.
