Sometimes a person experiences feelings of impending doom when they have a heart attack.

Often, this results in feeling depressed and scared, worrying when the next panic attack will occur. People with panic disorder get panic attacks often. Some symptoms of panic attacks include palpitations, chest pain, presyncope (feeling like you’re going to faint), dyspnea (labored breathing), the fear that you’re dying, and a sense of impending doom. Attacks can vary in length from a few minutes to hours. Panic attacks are frequent in people coping with an underlying anxiety disorder.
