A Virtual Panic Attack | New Age Creators
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 4 окт 2024
- Everyone feels worried and anxious sometimes, but for those who have Anxiety and Panic Disorder, the word "worry" takes on a whole new meaning. And because of the way so many people talk (or don't talk) about mental health, admitting you deal with Anxiety and Panic Disorder can be overwhelming. So let's change that. Let's start a new conversation around mental health that doesn't make anyone feel less than because of who they are. I hope that my "virtual panic attack" can help you feel less alone in what you're going through, or bring some insight to those who want to learn more about mental health issues. #newagecreators

I was scared to just watch this video because I thought I'd have a panic attack. Honestly I paused it when you started the tapping and came back later.
I had to pause the video when the dripping began. i just got up like 'well, I can't handle that' and did stuff before I felt ready to watch the video. Admit I skipped the explanations on anxiety and panic attacks.
+Farrah Robel Admittedly*
That's what she said! ;D
honestly so did I...
I almost did tbh like I never usually get panic attacks but then I was like oh I can handle it but then it just kept going faster and I was like oh sh*t and she was like you get sweaty and hotter and I was boiling and I was freaking out a bit but I took a deep breath and stopped thinking about it for a while
My mom used to get mad at me for being anxious because she thought anxiety was a choice and that I could easily control it.
Nowadays she understands a small bit better but I still find it hard to talk to non-anxious people about it because they can't seem to grasp it, really.
I have a tip for you guys out there struggling: anxiety is that trigger of flight-or-fight reflex even when there's no danger. So whenever I feel anxious for no reason, I try to get up and walking. Fast. Like I was just lying on the couch, feeling anxious, so I took a jog into the next room and back until the feeling was gone. It actually worked pretty well!
So like if you're in class or a work situation and feeling anxious, ask to go to the bathroom and walk there as fast as possible and then jog in place when you get there. Works wonders for me.
I do that a lot as well. When I would get a panic attack in the classroom, I'd take a minute to walk around the hallways to get my blood flowing again. Majority of the time it worked, but sometimes I couldn't return to class because I was too overwhelmed. But tomorrow is always a new day.
Alyssa Marie Thank you Alyssa! I will try that out.
Me too. My mom would say, be confident, just shrug it off, think positive etc. It is really hard to have panic attacks. Me, i would just lie down. Stare in blank.
I figured that out myself haha
Alyssa Marie I didn’t believe in anxiety until I had a horrible panic attack where I thought I died and went to hell. I now deal with anxiety every day and I wish I understood that anxiety is real before I felt it everyday.
I want to watch but I'm scared this might trigger me
Hi Bella, totally understandable. If you'd like to skip the full "virtual panic attack," skip the section of the video from 1:04 - 1:41.
The tapping and water drilling made me freak out but I kept watching. It didn’t trigger me fully but almost.
@Tori M
Same here
I get that to
It triggered me but also calmed me
To this day, in my 24 years alive, panic attacks, and anxiety are the strongest emotions I have ever felt. I wouldn't wish that hell on anyone.
Please seek help. Medication could help you but not the only answer. I suffered from the ago of 23 until I finally got diagnosed at 38. I didn't understand what was happening to me , there was nothing about it then. I'm 56 now.
I have social anxiety but when she started the pencil tapping, I had a proper panic attack and everything went blurry. It's really hard telling even my closest friends I have anxiety, thinking they'll laugh or find it stupid.But, stay strong all anxiety sufferers ❤️
Eva Robinson me too, i feel like people will look at me differently or treat me differently and i’m always seen as the straight a student when really i’m a mess haha. i wish i could tell my friends but i don’t want us to bounce off eachother making it worse you know, and know i’m stressing about the stress of telling people😂🙌
I think you probably should tell your friends cuz then they can't help you get over the panic attack and like anxiety
they have to experience it to know I did what help me is knowing that JESUS is in control he keeps me breathing anxiety comes at me in different ways when I face one another one pops up it’s no fun if what I’m going through can help someone else all glory to JESUS it’s worth it
Eva Robinson social anxiety is really tricky to deal with, I hate it, but keep going strong!
I don't know if you're still dealing with this, and haven't told your friends, but I have to tell you. Anxiety should not control or define you, but it can help you figure out which friends actually love and care about you. Not the best advice, but that's all I got. Hope this helps someone
thank you.

anytime :))
Kristine Iljina take vitamins to anti depress yourself. You could never go wrong with vitamins, always helping me with my depression issues. Also find out what vitamins trigger your best mood, remember we're all different so study your own body for best results. Trust me, vitamins will help for anti depressions as long as you find out what vitamins make you feel at your best. I also recommend "tranqueline" natural pills to avoid panic attacks somewhat. They also help make u feel calm.
as someone whose girlfriend had anxiety and panic attacks this video means so much to me.
Thank you for making this video. A lot of people don't understand anxiety, they think its something you can control when its not. Recently I realized I have anxiety too so I understand what you're going through. If anyone wants to talk I'd be happy to. :)
Hello :)
HI
+Alaina Taylor tumblr?
talkingwithrain
+Alaina Taylor i have anxiety too and my friends dont understand and they think it is a joke
I started crying. You helped me feel less alone.
Thank you for this video.
as someone who has Generalized Anxiety Disorder, this struck home.
It takes great courage to make this kind of video, and bestows hope.
Much love,
Zach
Hey Zach, thank you for watching. I'm glad this video can spread a little hope. Much love to you :)
CoDLover7771 we are all here for you❤️
I have Unspecified Anxiety Disorder (pretty much the same thing) and this video was pretty accurate.
I have both generalized and socail anxiety i got diagnosed
Thank you so much! I’m 42 and have suffered panic attacks since I was 15. It’s refreshing to be affirmed that I’m not alone!
You are not alone mate. One of the worst parts of anxiety and panic for me is when it's good I can't remember what it feels like to feel bad and when it's bad I literally cannot bring myself to remember when it wasn't.
All the best to you mate
Hope you get better. Sending 💕

Is Anxiety in fact actually considered a "mental illness?"
No illness! It's a part of AS, a disorder. AS or yous to call autism, you can see as a long barcode, a AS disorder you can have 1 line or several behind each other or 2 in the beginning 5 in the middle and 3 at the end etc. My son for instance is highly mentally intelligent, but in his high school economy study he made straight A's but at his practice test he almost flunked because he can't do two assignments at the same time, first one then the next worked well but it's not acceptable in a job, he made his degree for economics and now he thus a IT course, he made MTA( Microsoft Technical Assistant ) in 3 weeks from total 6 learning hours with a as you call it A++ or here a 10 out of 10.
Find out what you like and are good in do a course or more. A mental illness is ''all'' what people do not understand. A completely normal looking and behaving human, with daily headache and a continuous beep in his brain even with earplugs in a silent room is not sick but his brain thus overtime nothing can stop this, not even a 5 day artificial coma because it's AS a disorder.
+Kate Romero-Stellar yes Anxiety is a mental illness
WRONG!
I cannot thank you enough for this. It kind of feels really calming to know you're not alone in this. I, myself, luckily don't get panic attacks often, maybe it's because I manage to always hide my feelings so well, even from myself. But sometimes, of course, it all just breaks out and I explode and maybe the fear of that happening, that is so immense, is another reason for me not experiencing panic attacks so often as I might imagine other people do. But nevertheless, as soon as you described how u felt, I subconsciously burst out crying and sobbing and it kind of feels really good to let out all these emotions that are always trapped in a cage that's way too small for them and that keeps getting fuller and fuller with each day, spent hiding the feelings I should not be afraid to show. So thank you for that as well and everything else, thank you Marie 💙
Alex, thank you for sharing your story with us! It's so important to vent and share your feelings with someone or something. We're so honored that Marie's video was able to do that for you.
+SoulPancake 💙 love u guys
I've had anxiety and depression since I was about 17 and it's been a rough ol' ride. This video is wonderful though. Thank you for sharing your story.
Thanks so much for watching! Sending you so much love and warm wishes!
All the best, SoulPancake Team
+SoulPancake I wasn't ever expecting a reply but this is such a nice little gesture. I hope everyone at Soul Pancake and New Age Creators is feeling happy, healthy and loved. Piles of smiles and tins of grins. A
I have been dealing with anxiety, panic attacks and depression since I was 18. In a couple of weeks I will turn 55.
Some thoughts:
- I wish I had the internet when I was 18!
- I have a lovely marriage, an adult child, had a successful non-traditional career, travelled, lived, loved and laughed. It may sound trite but it DOES get better.
- I have spent some time in my bed with the covers over my head crying. [Too much time sometimes]. So, no ... it hasn't been easy. There are no "sure cures", a pill to make it go away, ... no quick easy answers. BUT, there are answers, skills to learn, sometimes medications to take, life to live.
- Ask for Help.
Love that there is this video to start a conversation, to let people know that they are not alone. So Brave!
Alex Quang I feel u
i've been dealing w it since i was 7.
yay.
Psychology student here. Thank you for being genuine and honest Marie. all you have posted is admirable and this video is something so brave and selfless. keep going on.
But the real question is... are you getting your degree from SoulPancake University ;)
+SoulPancake I would love to! 😁
Rowan :) Your comment means the world! Thank you for listening to me rant that day and being so supportive and kind always x
The way you described how you feel when you get a panic attack, was amazing. Thank you :)
Thanks so much for watching!
I think you found a really good way to describe what a panic attack feels like. This was a very courageous video and I am very glad I get to witness it. thank you so much for all the effort you put in your videos, I hope you have a good day
Hey Holly, thank you so much for listening :) Have a lovely day!
I thought I was having a stroke or heart attack. My face felt hot and droopy, could barely speak, heart racing, body tingling, hurt to breath and I felt like I was going to pass out and not wake up.
Fcts me too I was just listening to music and boom my heart was racing, I was lightheaded, scared, couldn’t speak, and my vision went a little blurry. I told my mom I felt like I was gonna (u know) and I went to a clinic and they said nothin was wrong wit me, after tht it just stayed I’m trying my best to deal with this but it’s hard I never knew anxiety can do this. Now I’m just taking sum Ibuprofen to calm it down when it’s hurting too much🙌🏼
Me too I felt like sh*t....
To anyone who has Panic Disorder like me: Hey it'll be okay, I go through them, and I understand what you're going through. I'm always here for you, I don't even know you, but nobody should go through this alone.
🥺🥺
😘
how are you now
It's so hard
There was a guy on TV saying people who suffer from this focus on the sensation of it coming on until they have an attack, whereas people who don't have panic attacks might have the same sensation but instead of thinking about it until it becomes something they just think hmm that's a different feeling but then just carry on and literally forget about it.
What an interesting way to look at this!
Well, in my early teens and later when I had a really stressful job there were times when I was prone to panic attacks. The rest of the time not prone at all. So I am both of the guys he was talking about and see the accuracy in what he said. If I ever have one again I will work with his information, which I didn't have then. What goes into a soul pancake anyway? Batter with a sprinkling of chitlins and collards? :) Could be tasty I suppose.
I feel so alone when I have panic/anxiety attacks. Thank you for letting me know that I'm not alone
When I tell my friends I have anxiety they tell me, "oh ya, I always have that when I have too much homework" but they don't understand. Anxiety is not triggered by a cause. I get anxiety attacks even on my best days. I feel like crying or screaming my head off when nothing stressful is going on. I love how this video portrays each emotion, insecurity, or thing people with anxiety go through.
I understand how frustrating it is. It seems the people without anxiety or depression or any of the lovely things my brain does have such a limited view of what others go through.
Anybody wanting to learn more about what anxiety really is should watch this video. I'm so glad I now have a video to show my friends, mentors, and my future husband some day when they want to truly understand me and what happens when I have a panic attack. Thank you for creating this.
this is just what i needed after having panic attack after panic attack all through the night. Thank you for reminding me I'm not alone
Every time I see this, I feel relaxed. I've searched all over the places to show a friend and I had a panic attack during the searching because i couldn't find it. But I'm so happy that it's here. Thank you for making this video. Some people can understand now how I feel.
Whenever I get a panic attack I feel as if I was gonna get a heart attack and I panic so much that I start experiencing what's it like to have a heart attack
Recently learned that I have panic disorder, have had it for 15 years but never had a name for it. Thank you for making this video. The checklist really resonated with me. "I did everything right, but anxiety has no rules."
Thank you... Having to deal with people who say my anxiety attacks are just me being "melodramatic" and it's really great to know that someone gets it. Love and light to you ❤️
My daughter is going thru anxiety and has had a few panic attacks. Thank you for sharing💓Probably will mean more to see someone around her age going thru it and talking openly💓
Thank you soooo much for this! so proud of you. I too am trying to bring awareness. I've been dealing with chronic panic disorder, depression, and PTSD for over 15yrs. thank you for sharing your journey!! follow me anxiety lotuslove! thank you again!!!
I literally couldn't help but just cry while watching this. Somebody who understood. I felt this video was _made_ for me. Made for me to not feel alone, and made for me to try and share my struggled with those who don't understand.
Thank you, from the bottom of my heart.
I suddenly felt like my lungs were about to shut and I couldn’t breathe when in reality I could but I couldn’t at the same time and felt a sudden fear and my heart started beating fast and my head felt light ... am I the only one ?
No
yea that’s a panic attack
And i ask myself"What am i doing?" but keep doing it, it's like i thought im doing crazy.
Exactly exactly same symptoms, and in addition to this I start walking crazily as if that's going to end my attack, thats the only thing I feel like doing at the time of attack
Thank you for your honestly and vulnerability. Wishing you nothing but happiness and positivity!
Omg thank u I was questioning clicking on this video because of my anxiety and I did and I feel less alone
You're not alone.
I had exactly the same thing! I was scared that by thinking about it and being more exposed to it then it would cause a nasty flare up
Not alone at all.
Everyone here is supportive.
It's so special here.
😊
Yes! No judgment from any of us. We understand haha.
Thank you ALL for this wonderful response. To see you guys supporting each other makes me so incredibly happy.
It's really hard to do, but it is so important to show people that they are not alone.
I've been in a really bad place and now I'm just starting to feel better, but when I was at my worst, I was constantly having panic attacks. I thought they would never stop for more than an hour. And I felt like no-one could see or understand it. I've never felt more alone in my life. So I think this could help a lot of people who feel this way, because at least now they know that they are not alone.
So thank you for opening up and sharing this in your beautiful video! 💜
To me, everything around me that I look at became larger, little triple the size and it's make me feel like it's about to crush me to death, or I have a sensation of something gigantic about to crashing on when I just simply close my eyes, so yes there is nothing I can do until it's went away. The only thing I can do is crying frighteningly calling for help and hugging someone tight.
sounds like me the weird thing is it only happened when I'm at a job I made a lot of money so when I lost my job in January of 2021 but I've been dealing with this all my life I would get anxiety and out of nowhere I would have weird vision problems like you are explaining where everything seems more closer and feel like I'm about to pass out the only way I felt better was getting away from everyone and some places would always trigger that all my life don't know if it's panic attacks im not sure all I know I used think I was going crazy ive always had issue since I was like 15 years old and now it's so hard to get myself to get a job because im going to somewhere new which scares me plus I hate social problems too I think the reason is because I was a premature baby and had surgery I think it was serious but im not sure I've probably got alot of disorders I don't know about from that what makes things worse is family never wants to listen or think I'm just being a wussy but they are normal and don't understand the things I deal with in my head it's sucks.
Great job! It's no shame to be in need of some sort of a psychological support, no shame at all! Movies like this one help ppl make more aware of that fact.
It's nice to know I'm not the only one...
You made me cry honestly. Most people dont understand the torment and when you started tapping the pencil and showing the leaky faucet it hit home. Its a torment im trying to work threw. I hope I get better. Thank you for showing in a way people can try to understand
The first time I had one, I thought I was having an asthma attack. Two weeks prior, I found out my fiance fooled around with my aunt, but I didn't react emotionally at all. For two weeks, I went into a mechanical, robot auto pilot kind of mental state. I did NOT want to feel . I numbed myself and continued to cook dinner , take care of our kids, even make love to him. But I thought about my discovery every minute of every day, and refused to cry, get angry or feel ANY kind of emotion. Then, on the day I had to do a show for my work at a convention center, I heard our song. OUR song a half hour before I had to put on my game face in front of about 1,000 people. OUR song was playing on the speakers at the convention center. There I was, in a crowded convention center with my boss and coworkers, and the song and his infidelity . I fought to keep the tears away. No no no, not now. Not like this. Not here! Get it together your boss and coworkers need you!
I had to go into the rest room to pull my self together. Then it happened. I tried to take a breath in, but I ended up making a weird gulping noise. Tried again, and it was like my chest was only allowing a small amount of air along with more gulping noises. My chest felt tight, my vision was altered, and I went into full panic mode. Gulping and gasping for air. I started to feel complete humiliation which made it worse. Humiliation of someone finding me, of my coworkers finding me and 10 minutes left until I was due to make my presentations. I was also really scared because I thought I was having an asthma attack. I was alone in there. I was holding onto the counter, trying to hold my self up when a man accidently walked into the ladies restroom with me. He saw me and realized his mistake and hightailed it out of there. I tried asking him for help, but I could barely speak. I thought I was dying. I never had a panic attack before. I called my female coworker, but her phone was off. So my only choice was to call my boss and tried to sound normal, asking him to send ginger in to help me with something. Well, Ginger comes, but my boss hung around the ladies room (unknown to me at the time) and she asked me what was wrong. I exploded, told her everything. I became hysterical and my breathing got worse. She told me I was having a panic attack. 5 mins later, the on-site medics came in to help me. (My boss heard everything, EVERYTHING) he was the one who got the medics. They wanted to take me to this room, but the thought of leaving the privacy of the bathroom, and walk passed hundreds of people, including my coworkers , made my panic attack worse. So they skirted me through the back and through a loading garage and into the nurse's station. About an hour later I felt composed enough to call my bff to come pick me up. I stayed at her place for the weekend.
That night after I left, I get a phone call. It was my boss. I HAD to answer. When I did, I immediately apologized for leaving the show, my voice was completely shot by then, super raspy and course. Thank God he was understanding and told me he wanted to check in on me to make sure I was all right, that he heard the echoes from the women's room, and understood my emotional state. Told me to take as much time as I needed and that my desk will still be there when I come back. That brought some solice. He even called me the next day as well, but by then, I had no voice to speak. I lost my voice completely that weekend.
That was a year and 6 months ago. I had panic attacks about twice a month for a while, once at church in the middle of lent service even. They are SO humiliating. Trying to stay composed and fighting it back so I don't make a scene was so hard and futile . But it's been 6 months since my last one. Sucks that I have absolutely no trust in anyone anymore. I stay away from situations that remind me of it, and I can't have fun anymore when I go out because I feel I need to pay attention to every person, every detail around me. I feel I need to have the entire room in eyesight when I DO go out. I question EVERYONE'S motives , ESPECIALLY women. I feel the need to analyze every movement and to ALWAYS have my chess pieces in order in social situations. It's horrible. And mentally exhausting and I know it's unnecessary, but I can't help it.
I used to be so carefree and social. I have detached from my family, from everyone. I only feel safe at home. I miss my friends, but then again I don't because I have this stupid idea that they will stab me in the back if I let my guard down.
This has to get better.
I pray you are doing better. Anxiety is such a difficult thing to live with, but we will be ok. God bless and keep you.
3 minutes is all they always need to make my mind full with feelings and thoughts.
Thank you for this.
Thankyou so much for making this video. My anxiety (though not as frequent as some peoples) often stops me from having the confidence to create even though its the one thing i really love. A lot of the time i end up feeling that maybe it means that making stuff just isn't meant for me, so hearing this honesty from a creator really helps!
Thanks xx 😊
i really believe in you and i do think that making stuff is meant for you and that creating stuff is the thing you can do well ☺ don't let the anxiety overcome you but listen to your dreams and let your dreams come true and be happy with the things that you are creating and believe in yourself i know you can do it ☺❤
sadly I relate to every bit of it.
Me too ..
Thank you for that. It was a great video and really puts into perspective how anexity effects people. I know how i experience my GAD and depression however its so empowering with people like you willing to step up and talk about it. You are not alone.
I have ADHD and have self diagnosed myself with anxiety, I experience panic attacks and your video really helped me realize I’m not crazy thinking I’m the only person who feels their heart racing and mind spinning. Thank you so much for making this video!
Thank you for posting this. It's ppl like you that allow me to feel less alienated and not fear my anxiety. I used to not want to ever leave my house, now I'm pursuing a career and a variety of life goals outside my comfort zone. It all started though by not feeling like a freak, and hearing from other ppl that a bad day is just a bad day
I can't express my gratitude to you enough. this video is really helpful to me. I have struggled with anxiety for two to three years now and going into year 12 and with a job as a cashier things are getting rough. I've gotten depressed and fallen into a deep hole I'd thought I'd never get out of. I've watched countless other videos about anxiety and seen a cb therapist but nothing has worked. I'm not quite sure how but your video has convinced me it's time to stop living under this and move past it. you're video has made me realise it's time to see a real doctor not just a therapist and consider taking medication if need be despite my previous fear of medicines. thank you so much. thank you a million times.
I'm a family nurse practitioner and have anxiety. You hit the nail on the head! You are amazing for doing that video. I'm sure you have no idea how many people you helped. THAT is what is going to change the stigma....
I literally started crying at the end of this video. As one who has battled anxiety and depression for nearly 20 years, this video hits home! Happily I have my anxiety under control now (after about 6 years of mental training), but my wife suffers from it bad! I'll be glad to pass this along, because I am still amazed as to how people don't understand mental health...and how they refuse to believe it is an area of concern.
Thanks for the video!
Marie another beauty. I can say I have never suffered from a panic attack, but you did such a great job at explaining it.
It gave me to tools to empathize with people who go through this on a regular (or occasional basis)
Fantastic job.
just the pencil tapping and water dripping made me start to breathe faster and my heart to beat faster this hits close even though I have not been diagnosed with anxiety.
This is one of the best videos I have seen in RUclips. xx
I am with you and all the people who has anxiety and panic disorders because i know how it feels like to get them.
X
Thank you for making this video, I'm glad you are sharing your experience with panic disorder. As a mental health professional, I too know what it feels like to have days where you are a ball of nerves. I enjoyed this and I hope you are doing well keep up the great work.
Thank you so much. This is one video I know I can watch when I'm having a hard time and I know I will feel like I'm no longer alone. Thank you xx
I can relate to this video soooo much. Last year was one of the toughest ones for me because of my anxiety disorder. I agree with you in that one can often feel alone and misunderstood when going through this. Thanks for raising awareness of mental health. Peace of mind is something I value sooooo much now. Best of luck!
Thanks for this video, i have an anxiety disorder. I identify so much with this channel it always seems you are talking direclty to me. You are amazing!
I can’t bring myself to watch this video out of fear of triggering myself but the comments are so wholesome and amazing
As someone who suffered from severe anxiety and panic disorder. I was not able to take care of myself. It was debilitating but you can actually rewire and recover!! Not by coping or managing! But allowing! You have to take the right steps.. As long as you’re identifying yourself with this illness, you won’t recover. Sincerely, someone who has FULLY recovered! You can do this guys!
I teared up watching this. Thank you for making this... I’ve had two panic attacks in the last year and starting to learn more and more about things like this and that I’m not alone.
Greg, Develop your mental muscles. God has given us life to enjoy. Meditation heals anxiety as it reprogrammes the mind. Watch alternate nostril breathing meditation videos on Google and do it for 5 to 10 minutes if possible twice a day. You can sit on a chair and do it. Second technique is to close eyes, sit in one place with back erect without moving for 5 to 10 minutes-Be still and observe your breath. Negative thoughts will reduce. Shyaaam Sir, Mentor. Make meditation a daily habit.
I agree with every single word. This is a perfect description of a panic attack...
That point that you said that some days you feel normal and some days you feel panic and anxiety. I was really questioning whether I ever felt the symptoms of anxiety (which I did) because some days I don't feel them. Thank you for including this in your video.
this. this is the best explanation of anxiety I've ever seen!! maybe because I like videos and prettiness but this is so great and accurate to my flipping life! love it!
Thank you for making me feel "normal" ! I have panic attacks sometimes and its so frustrating when this comes back . But as you said , we find ways to cope with this ! And its not the end of the world !
Thank you for watching and listening :) ♥
I've always know I wasn't alone in this inner battle with myself but it's somewhat comforting to see that I'm not alone. Thanks for this video.
Spot. On.
Thanks for taking the time to create this video and share it.
Thank you so so much.
This has been happening to me and I didn't know what was going on and I felt so alone. I'm glad to know I am not alone in this
This video and it's creator should be celebrated
If you would ask me, I would say keep creating and spreading your compassionate kind of awareness.
Marie. Thank you for this. You have no idea how much this means to me and i'm sure many others as well. I know people (me included) always feels like they're the only person this is happening to in that moment of having a really bad anxiety attack but this helped put things in perspective even more so. Your openness to show others that they're not alone shows just how clearly creators like you can make such a huge impact on someone else's life. I appreciate you and this video very much. Thank you for being brave and showing the world, we're not alone.
much love,

This so accurate and also helps knowing that youre not crazy to feel this way ! So thanks again for an amazing video :)
What I loved about this video is that it not only resonates with people who have anxiety, but it helps people who don't have it understand it so much better. I personally do not have panic attacks, but I could understand what you go through when you were describing it. Great job Marie
I've had this before, it was horrible. It's much better now than it was. What really helped me is when I got fed up with it and eventually realized it's my mind and doesn't control reality or determine your future, unless you let it. It takes awhile at times, but every day is a victory cause you keep moving forward. It'll get better overtime. Keep moving forward and fighting!

This video is great. We have to make more visible mental health illnesses and issues, and the fact that they affect people.
I appreciate you for showing your experience. I think that's important that people need to be aware that anxiety is actually a "thing", it's not like getting a cold. You can carry anxiety for years (or another mental health issue) and people will still say that's gonna be gone, "it's just a phase". And that's a sad perspective we must change.
Thank you.
Thank you for taking a moment to help others. I was encouraged by your video.
I'm happy to be able to see this video because I felt less alone. Just a few days ago I had a major anxiety attack. And all I can hear from the people around me was that I am jyst over reacting and why don't I control it. It really helps me watch some kind of encouragement videos like this because I felt that I am not alone in this battle.
That was so great. It is so hard to put in understandable words what it feels like... Thank you for this, this is amazing!
wow this was amazing!! not only was your explanation of the symptoms spot on. but you filmed this whole video in a very creative and cool way. very awesome stuff
Well done explaining anxiety, Marie! Your video on mental health is one of my favorites and I'm very supportive of whenever you speak up for things like this. I really don't talk about my anxiety because I don't understand it and it's very confusing to me how it just flares up for no reason. But I'm glad people like you are able to talk about it, help others understand it, and cause people to feel less alone about it! Love you, kid!
So well said Tyler! Thanks so much for watching!
Whoever you are, if you see this you're amazing. I struggle too. You're not alone. Whatever you're going through will pass. I love you.
just thanks for putting in the work and for sharing, makes you feel a little less weird
Very well done panic attacks are a big problem with a lot of people... me included. Thank you for this video.
you have no idea how much this means to me. thank you.
This hit home so much as I have GAD and it basically became my way of thinking. You are a beautiful and strong girl and thank you for making this video, it reminds me I'm not alone.
Thank you so much. As someone with anxiety/ panic disorders, I can not only say this is accurate, but I'm glad you're doing things to raise mental health awareness.
Thank you so much. I am crying as I write this because it explains everything I just can't put into words myself
You did such an amazing job to describe a panic attack, it's so hard to explain to people that don't struggle with anxiety. It annoys me when people just roll their eyes and not take anxiety seriously.
Oh god i actually teared up at the tapping sound
Thank You So Much For This...realizing there are so many of us out there going through the same is so relieving and it makes me feel less alone and so much supported!
Omg thank you so much for making this video no one in my family thinks it real they think I'm over reacting or that it's in my head, thank you for letting me know I'm not alone thank you
Thank you Marie 😊
im grateful to you for making this video. You conveyed the experience of how it feels to suffer panic attacks clearly. I have close friends and family that im going to show this to. There are times i cant even leave the house let alone go to a family party or out with Friends and they dont understand the reality of being afraid of having a panic attack.
You said the truth. 💜 It's how i feel many times although, i couldn't say it as it's unexplainable. Nobody understand it in a way i wanted them to understand. It's easier for other to say relax but it's isn't as easy as it seems.
Although I do have an anxiety disorder (OCD) I've never experienced a panic attack before. Thanks a lot for this, although I can't relate to all of it it makes me feel better that some of you out there that struggle with this can relate and feel seen. I love you, and remember you're not alone. You can get through this
I had my first panic attack a week ago after trying to treat my stress with alcohol and other drugs. I have had four more since then to varying degrees. I am now receiving treatment for it, but I really want to work on ways to control them without drugs because the meds make me feel slow and less productive. I have a great support system of people around me that want to help, but it is very comforting to hear the stories of others going through the same thing and how they deal with attacks without drugs. Thank you for making this video and helping me not feel so alone during this difficult time.
People like you make the world a better place
Dear Marie, Thank you for your bravery in opening up to us! I have learned from you, and am better for it. How lucky and blessed we are for your courage and honesty!
I really like that your topics connect with your viewers from such an honest place. I too, suffer from anxiety attacks from time to time, and have used running as my coping mechanism. Thank you for helping create an environment for people like me to feel sane about it. :)
I am most grateful for your bravery! I will be sharing this with all my patients and their parents so they may feel less alienated, more hopeful, and better able to support their children as they develop means to cope with their condition. You have done a superb job of describing the experience in terms anyone can relate to.

Thank you. ..was just seating in church hearing the message. I truly enjoy it. But, I couldn't focus and nervous arised. Fear with a bucket of cold sweat. Head pounding. Contemplating weather to walk out or not...how rude!! I had to leave needed fresh air. Fogging sight....just get to my car and go home.
Thank you for your video. Feel more at ease.
