"Panic" comes from Pan, the Greek god of the woodlands. Although Pan, a satyr, was a fairly gentle, playful creature, The Greeks viewed the wilderness he ruled as a chaotic place without rules and restraints. Thus "to panic" or "to be overcome with panic" was to be too closely associated with the god of wild things and places, and therefore acting without reason or forethought.
