is it weird that unexpected alerts send me into a panic?

so a few hours ago, i was trying to take a nap and my phone was pretty close to my head so when a snapchat notification went off unexpectedly, it was really fucking loud. for some reason i started to panic like my heart started racing and my breathing got weird and my stomach dropped. i was telling myself “calm down why are you panicking its just a snapchat alert???” i knew that it wasnt a danger it was just a notification but my heart still wouldnt calm down. Its not like im scared of messages. Literally never had any sort of bad situation w messages. This has happened a few times with other unexpected noises like my family dropping things onto the floor in their rooms or other stuff, but its usually js been mt stomach dropping for a few seconds then me continuing my day as normal. maybe because they were far away sounds? idk. Even a few minutes after the notification, i still felt a little uneasy. I think i may know what caused this but i js want confirmation
