Panic In The Mailroom
Panic is a sudden sensation of fear, which is so strong as to dominate or prevent reason and logical thinking, replacing it with overwhelming feelings of anxiety, uncertainty and frantic agitation consistent with a fight-or-flight reaction.

The Greek term indicates the feeling of total fear that is also ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
