False Alarm: Having a Panic Attack

A short comic based on a personal experience which blends memoir and didactic explanation to educate a lay audience about what happens in the body during a panic attack.

To make the subject more engaging and approachable, I used personification and humour.  I hope that my comic can elucidate panic attacks for others who may experience them as well!
