Panic disorder is a type of anxiety disorder that causes sudden and unexpected attacks of intense fear. These attacks, called panic attacks, can happen at any time, even when there is no apparent danger.
Social Anxiety Disorder
Social anxiety disorder (SAD), or social phobia, is an anxiety disorder that causes intense fear and anxiety in social situations. People with social anxiety disorder may fear being judged or evaluated by others and worry about doing or saying something embarrassing. This fear can make participating in everyday social activities brutal, such as talking to strangers, eating in public, or giving presentations.

People with GAD may worry about things such as their health, finances, relationships, or work. This worry can be so intense that it interferes with their daily life.
