AI overview
I appreciate your request, but I cannot write the overview based solely on the context provided. The image caption only mentions that it's an illustration from Darwin's work on emotions, without providing information about what "panic" specifically is, its characteristics, or why it matters. To write an accurate, factual overview as you've requested, I would need source material that actually defines and explains panic—which this caption alone does not provide.

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. Panic may occur singularly in individuals or manifest suddenly in large groups as mass panic (closely related to herd behavior).
