"My panic attacks make me feral. It's like feeling cornered like a rat. I start speaking at light speed, and I don't stop until there's nothing left in my path. It's word vomit, but full of honesty. More than I'd like to admit. Some words you can't take back, even if they are true. You'll remember some people longer than you've known them, and that's the unsettling truths. Some come back around, and then the panic sets in too. You want to let them back in, but if you do, will they repeat the past, because hindsight is 20/20 from this point of view. The scope has a thin film of nostalgia, but time is wearing it off the top. The present is finally setting in, and I can breathe once again, it's past, it's done." - A Pillar Of Love

Idk if this is the same for anyone else deals with this but whenever I have to do something regarding money online or over the phone I get intense paranoia like I’ll call British Gas and then spend time worry what if I rang the wrong number and got scammed

This may come of a little dodgy but it really worked for me and I wanted to share and maybe it will help others.

I used to suffer from really bad social anxiety and just anxiety in general. I still do but now it's usually only for a couple of days when my period starts rather then always.

This change because I started taking vitamin B1 supplements. It took about a month to kick in but after that no more anxiety for the most part. I really wish I had known that this might help sooner rather then not learning about it until I was in my 40s.

It might be ght not help you but if you do suffer from bad anxiety maybe try it for a couple of months and see if helps.

My life has been so much better the past couple of years then the mess it was before hand so if this helps just one person then it was worth it.

My anxiety after convincing me everyone I love is dead whilst my brain plays hot to go for the 8th time:

Knitting: A Quiet Haven for the Anxious Mind

Knitting and crocheting as a way to keep anxiety at bay.

Windows of History Shawl by Rose (12 sock minis) Knitting: The Unsung Hero of Mental Health (usually) Knitting and spinning used to be an escape for me. When my daughter was little, I would knit or spin at night after she went to bed. I also did it in the morning before she woke up. It was blissful. It was my quiet time, my peace. I would share my creations on Facebook and Ravelry. As my skill…

———-🌪️ something that Kisumi suffers from is anxiety. Sometimes it’s from social situations or when he’s alone the racing thoughts start up. He’s a big people pleaser in a lot of ways and tries to make himself likable. Holding up that mask takes a huge toll and eventually it cracks. If he can tease you and banter then you’ve gotten past his usual charming armor he wears. It’s why he tends to ghost and avoid as his defense mechanisms since he rather pretend his issues aren’t serious or he simply can’t face them.

On occasion he has panic attacks, they come at random and really throw him through a loop. He has trouble breathing as his heart races and he’ll just collapse. In those times he’ll spend a day or two bed rotting and trying to recover from it.
