Is it true that anxiety or panic attacks can lead to hurting oneself when in the moment?

Question

Answer

I’ve suffered with this myself so if you need someone to talk to about it whether it’s about you or someone close to you, give me a message x

Answer

Was upswt over this boy in high school and physically hurt myself. Clawed my arms up till they bled. made up this story of Woah where did that come from haha... took several years for the scars to heal. When i am upset (from my experience) I've noticed I lash out. I don't think but what I need to do is take a step back and breathe before I cause harm to myself. And I'm not the type to harm myself.

Answer

I answered No. but please hear me out. Everyones panic attacks are diffrent. 
I was 12 when my dads heart stopped. I watched my mom preform CPR. I have PTSD and Generalized Anxiety Disorder.
Panic Attack for me is staring off into space like a deer in the headlights for 1 minute before complete meltdown happens. (I have had coworkers who would notice right before I melted down) Once I hit meltdown I start crying until I cant breath. Once the point of not being able to breath hits, I start getting sever chest pains, chesy tightness and I cumble underneath my own weight. 
The only things that helps with my anxiety is My Husband, My Dog and 1 mg of Xanax 3 times per day.
