<p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr">Arab Weather - Nate Byrne, the weather presenter on the ABC&#39;s &quot;News Breakfast&quot; program, suffered a panic attack while presenting the news live, which forced him to leave the broadcast and let his colleague continue presenting the news.</p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> A video clip showed the moments when Byrne began to feel upset while presenting the news, as he said:</p><blockquote style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> &quot;Some of you know I sometimes have panic attacks, and it seems like it&#39;s happening now.&quot; After he left the broadcast, his colleague continued to present the news, while Byrne took a break before returning to the studio. </p></blockquote><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"></p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"><iframe allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="480" referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/II0Yz3auooI" title="TV weatherman has panic attack live on air" width="853"></iframe></p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"></p><h2 style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> What are panic attacks?</h2><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> Answer: A panic attack is a sudden episode of intense fear that causes strong physical reactions in the absence of any real danger or apparent cause for fear. Panic attacks can be extremely distressing, as a person may feel like they are losing control, having a heart attack, or even facing the threat of death.</p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> Many people only experience one or two panic attacks in their lifetime, and the problem often goes away after the stressful situation is over. However, if you have frequent, unexpected panic attacks, and live in constant fear of another attack, you may have panic disorder.</p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> Although panic attacks themselves are not life-threatening, they can have a significant impact on quality of life. However, treatment can be very effective in relieving symptoms and improving the condition.</p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"></p><h2 style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> Panic attack caused broadcaster to leave live broadcast</h2><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> After his return, Byrne apologised to viewers for any concern the panic attack had caused and spoke to his colleagues about his experience. Byrne had previously had a similar experience when he suffered a panic attack while presenting the weather forecast in 2022.</p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> In a previous article, Byrne described how his first on-air panic attack was the result of the stress of being on air, saying:</p><blockquote style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> “It was terrifying and completely reshaped my understanding of mental health,” he added. “As I stood under the studio lights talking to the audience, my heart was racing, I was gasping for breath, and sweat was pouring from every pore of my body.”</p></blockquote><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> Byrne also talked about how while he was feeling anxious, he continued to do his job in a place he loved. He stressed the importance of having a support network who knows you may need help sometimes, explaining that things may not always be obvious from the outside, and sometimes a person appears more in control than they actually feel.</p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"></p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> See also:</p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> <a href="https://www.arabiaweather.com/ar/content/%D8%B1%D8%A7%D8%A6%D8%AF%D8%A7-... astronauts stuck in space indefinitely..
