According to Daniel Goleman;
a renowned psychologist and author of Emotional Intelligence, characterizes panic as a destructive emotional state that sabotages rational thought, often initiated by an "amygdala hijack". When in the grip of panic, the brain's emotional center (amygdala) overrides the rational, thinking brain (prefrontal cortex), leading to irrational, impulsive responses.
Techniques for Control are; focus on breathing, "name it to tame it"(Labeling the feeling), observing the state
According to Carl Jung; viewed panic and anxiety not as mere illnesses, but as symbolic, energetic messages from the unconscious, signaling a desperate need for psychological growth, authenticity, or an emerging, unlived life. Panic arises when one lives against their true nature, requiring individuals to stop running from their fear and instead embrace the "shadow" to initiate transformation.
