No. Can not. Well, that is, people with a panic attack tend to believe in principle that something terrible is happening to them. They have the highest degree of anxiety.
Let's remember what a hypertensive crisis is. This is when blood pressure is constantly increased, then it jumps even more, and to such an extent that it damages some organs. The brain suffers, vision or heart. This is an ambulance job.
With a panic attack, a person is so anxious that his blood pressure also jumps. But not so much it jumps. Such a person may also have some eerie symptoms that are similar to the manifestation of a hypertensive crisis: palpitations, hot flashes, shortness of breath, all things. But these symptoms are not actually related to blood pressure, but rather related to anxiety.
There is also paroxysmal hypertension
This is when a person gets so crazy that adrenaline is in his blood. And his pressure also scales. Everything is fair. This pressure must be relieved with blood pressure medications. And all sorts of symptoms appear. It seems to many that they are dying, and from this people are very frightened. They start to panic. That is, everything happens in the reverse order.
But in fact, people usually don't die from paroxysmal hypertension. This is not a hypertensive crisis. There are no heart attacks. Organs are not damaged. Yes, blood pressure is very high, and it is lowered, but in a peaceful life it will be normal. Panic attack will be in last place here. Consequently. The heart pounds from adrenaline, and the person thinks that he will die. This triggers a panic attack. Again, this is not a hypertensive crisis.
Well, that is, it is clear that if you freak out four times a day every day, you can harm yourself. But out of nowhere from a nervous breakdown, heart attacks usually do not happen.
Unless, of course, it's broken heart syndrome... 😁
