Well in my experience nothing really happens. It's all looming terror, the sensation of being entirely vulnerable to something unknown, and it takes quite a bit of willpower to snap out of it. I haven't had one for... years, I think. But I recognize it now, and I know how to break free, so it's not as terrifying as it used to be.
