Can you die from panic attacks?

About a year ago, I started getting what I would later find out were "anxiety attacks." At first it was very frustrating because I would wind up in the ER after believing I was having a heart attack, and of course tests revealed nothing was physically wrong. Since the first few, it’s now developed into an everyday thing, and I have anxiety attacks waxing and waning all day long. Not always full-blown ones, sometimes I only get some of the symptoms, like the dizziness or the racing heartbeat but not the panic. Sometimes I get all. Thing is, on particular occasions I get worried because the attacks are so intense and it feels like one day my heart is just going to give out on me. I have worn a holter monitor for 24 hours, had an echo, and an EKG. Docs say my heart is perfectly healthy. But can anyone tell me if it is possible to develop a heart attack as a result of anxiety attacks?

A friend of mine says she had one and the ER docs said hers was so intense it was like a "pre heart attack." Maybe she was exagerrating, because I was under the impression a panic attack cannot kill you. But can you slip into a heart attack during one? This really causes me extra worry now.

Can Anxiety and panic attacks happen over a period of time like a week or do they happen quickly?

I have all the symptoms of a panic attack or anxiety attack but I’ve never had them all at the same time I’ve had them all in the last week or so, I’ve had heart palpitations for months now and hot flashes and chills and random sweating for like a week.
I’m 14 if that helps
