Was this a panic attack?

[SonofMephisto]

I was trying to initiate a conversation with someone...my chest was tight and I had a hard time breathing. After speaking with 2 strangers, I had terrible headache after that. I had a mild headache in the beginning already though. About 8-9hours have passed after that...and my headache has almost completely faded. Also, when I was smiling at one of the strangers, I felt the the skin below my eye convulsing. It was like that area was trying to twitch but I tried to hold it back. I've had a panic attack before, but it didn't feel like this.

The last time I had a panic attack, I thought I was having a heart attack. I had trouble getting words out of my mouth and I was extremely nervous. I could hear my heart beating fast and loudly. It wasn't like that this time. Was what happened today considered a panic attack?

well basically that do not seem like a classic panic attack but can surely be, there are many manifestations of panic attacks, however, it looks more like a spike of blood pressure than panic.

talk to your doctor.
