Wow this was a wonderful read. It really validated a lot of the feelings I’ve been grappling with lately—or maybe my whole life. Thank you for sharing ❤️

Reading this with tears in my eyes because your post is so beautifully written and makes me feel so seen. I’ve lived with generalised anxiety disorder for 17 years and last year had an acute period of debilitating symptoms and - for the first time - panic attacks. It was a huge wake up call and I have been pursuing recovery and healing ever since, although trying to accept I may always be more anxious than most. 🙏🏻 I would love to watch your film - is it available anywhere for viewing? 🩷

Thanks so much for this - I had the exact same experience when I first had a panic attack. I was in a restaurant with my mom and suddenly everything changed and the panic attacks wouldn’t stop. Your words were so validating 💗

“Because now I have tools, a therapist, a language for the pain, and the invaluable experience of having cared for my nervous system before.”

New mantra, thank you : )
