A Virtual Panic Attack | New Age Creators

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.

[@pursepurse1652]

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.

[@pursepurse1652]

+Farrah Robel Admittedly*

[@Amy-jr5fm]

That's what she said! ;D

[@anessaali8361]

honestly so did I...

[@lynnmka]

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

[@alyssamarie970]

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.

[@jayfel104]

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.

[@moonsoul6678]

Alyssa Marie Thank you Alyssa! I will try that out.

[@angelyncortes2228]

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.

[@daphne_lam]

I figured that out myself haha

[@anthonysturm358]

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.

[@bell_knight]

I want to watch but I'm scared this might trigger me

[@Participant]

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.

[@g.t.7362]

The tapping and water drilling made me freak out but I kept watching. It didn’t trigger me fully but almost.

[@imaanahmed4965]

@Tori M Same here

[@jimmymolina3572]

I get that to

[@phili7347]

It triggered me but also calmed me

[@GravelsNotAFood]

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.

[@aimeemacdn]

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.

[@evarobinson1]

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 ❤️

[@Zara_Beth]

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😂🙌

[@alexisklaus6982]

I think you probably should tell your friends cuz then they can't help you get over the panic attack and like anxiety

[@barneyohara7804]

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

[@hannahclarke9902]

Eva Robinson social anxiety is really tricky to deal with, I hate it, but keep going strong!

[@vedxkaaa]

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

[@TheKriksii]

thank you.

[@landdcollection]

[@MarieJacquemin]

anytime :))

[@humblecris5825]

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.

[@max79_99]

as someone whose girlfriend had anxiety and panic attacks this video means so much to me.

[@alainataylor9884]

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. :)

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

[@MarieJacquemin]

Hey Zach, thank you for watching. I'm glad this video can spread a little hope. Much love to you :)

[@forvildt1]

I started crying. You helped me feel less alone.

[@drofscnul]

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!

[@opfnorfolk588]

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

[@nadiaaguirre9466]

Hope you get better. Sending 💕

[@HeyRowanEllis]

[@MarieJacquemin]

Rowan :) Your comment means the world! Thank you for listening to me rant that day and being so supportive and kind always x

[@AlexCenta]

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 💙

[@Participant]

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.

[@AlexCenta]

+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

[@suestoons]

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!

[@onecupofsoup]

Alex Quang I feel u

[@charaxyz]

i've been dealing w it since i was 7. yay.

[@kisses-a4045]

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.

[@brianmgaming1780]

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🙌🏼

[@nairobi-laputaama9662]

[@KateStellar]

Is Anxiety in fact actually considered a "mental illness?"

[@strokedriedrie]

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.

[@heathermcalister2028]

+Kate Romero-Stellar yes Anxiety is a mental illness

[@marlene-rr2ih]

WRONG!

[@BeautyBar208]

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.

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

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

[@lelizzdeux6516]

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.

[@Yamomma69_]

Thank you. I've always been aware that I'm not alone, but this really helped and it truly hit me while watching this. I'm so proud of you. The fact that you're strong enough to make such a serious video, and that you pushed through even after an anxiety attack is something so incredible that I'd never have the guts to do.❤

[@jgunther3398]

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.

[@Participant]

What an interesting way to look at this!

[@jgunther3398]

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.

[@lexthequeer]

Thank you for this.

[@kasiemariecreative]

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, Kasie

[@BlackRoseLove54]

This video was so genuine and raw. I really appreciate you taking the time to make it and shed light on the reality of living with anxiety. It's so helpful to feel connected to others going through the same thing

[@tommyboyz6291]

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.

[@randomvideosyt5955]

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.

[@maliashellabarger1533]

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.

[@ianmichalski7997]

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.

[@lalejab09]

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!

[@flyrockinrobin]

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!

[@sageversace5303]

[@user-ud4dr6bo9p]

No

[@hotdoghater7919]

yea that’s a panic attack

[@BrenAquino]

And i ask myself"What am i doing?" but keep doing it, it's like i thought im doing crazy.

[@haniaakhtar3117]

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

[@saplingsoul]

[@jgerdes03]

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.

[@OhhowHelovesus777]

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.

[@Holly-et7zn]

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

[@MarieJacquemin]

Hey Holly, thank you so much for listening :) Have a lovely day!

[@Amy_V423]

Thank you so much for making this. You’re so strong and it’s admirable to know I’m not alone ❤️ sometimes it feels like I am and that I’m a huge outcast when struggling to keep it under control.

[@saadfaisal6185]

Me too ..

[@pennysanamo]

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.

[@cinemoni]

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

[@maninder003]

Thank you. This video definitely helped me feel less lonely about my panic attacks. The editing that was done to simulate the feeling of an panic attack was really good!

[@ren7983]

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.

[@brookebuss8779]

You have no idea how much I've needed this. I have anxiety too and it's so hard to feel like anyone understands. A lot of people don't realize that it's not something I can always control and that I'm not just emotional. Thank you so much! I know that this wasn't easy for you but I promise it was worth it.

[@annadalton7109]

As I have struggled with my anxiety just today, this video was amazing to watch. Thank you for your bravery and courage to make it. Thank you Soulpancake for putting on your site.

[@PaigeLavoie]

This was so genuine, thank you so much for making this video

[@smilespoonskelton]

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 😊

[@Jonas_Heller]

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 ☺❤

Thank you, thank you, thank you...for putting this up. This explains the feelings and the 'attacks' to a tee... for what I just went through..yet again..without warning. It is not always easy to pull out the items and tell them in a concise way so that others may understand, but you did a great job.

[@heatherkennedy-plant3919]

Thank you for sharing and helping so that eventually no one will have to feel 'less than' and we can chip away at stigma surrounding anxiety disorders and other mental health disorders and problems. Well done! You do matter and make a difference. Thank you!

[@fuzzy.leahfaye]

I love this, thank you so much! This just made my day a million times better ❤️

[@NikkiHarrisFilms]

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.

[@Clair.]

thank you, i never could really explain this to my family. how it feels and what i go through. but i showed them this video and now they understand more. thank you so much, and best of luck to you.

[@mariechidiac6881]

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. :)

[@xlove1331]

This so accurate and also helps knowing that youre not crazy to feel this way ! So thanks again for an amazing video :)

[@organicswagify]

Thank you for your honestly and vulnerability. Wishing you nothing but happiness and positivity!

[@FehintolaOgunye]

thank you for this video. it has really helped me. I feel so much relief. mental health problems isn't talked about where I come from for fear of alienation or stigma and there are thousands of people who are battling with anxiety, depression, mental disorder etc who would benefit from talking to a professional or someone about it. I enjoy the content New Age Creators put out, it gets me thinking. cheers Marie!

[@SteppingStonevlogs]

This is one of the best videos I have seen in KZbin. xx

[@ballerinacs]

Yesterday, for the first time in a long while, I had an anxiety attack. This video helped me work through it. Thanks for being brave and making it ❤

[@habibafouad]

You're something special Marie, I see it and feel it in every video you create. I connect deeply with your content and the messages you send out through them. Keep doing what you're doing and I truly hope I get to meet you one day.

[@GreenVeggie]

Marie you're amazing, thank you so much for making this video.

[@otter1234]

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.

[@katarinaschmidt2040]

I think all people has connected with this video, one way or another. Thank you for creating that connection to make so many people feel less alone

[@MN-re9oh]

Thank you for this selfless act. You've given me courage to keep walking myself through it. Blessings.

[@queenofdramatech]

As a now longtime sufferer of Anxiety issues, I connected with this video and it was worth it! I am sorry it was difficult for you to make it but I am glad you did! I am glad I have something to share with people who do not understand what it is like for those of us who do suffer. THANK YOU! Virtual hug!

[@sofiacastanho7127]

Marie, you are amazing! thank you for this video! Made my day way happier!

[@dander87]

after having a rough panic attack this morning I was glad to find this video! I like to think this video found me in a time of desperate need. thank you for sharing your story and having help available

[@emilydana5021]

Thank you so much for this video! I struggle with both of these things and it's always nice to be reminded that I am not alone.

[@kimberly_reads]

Thank you so much for making this. As someone who's had a tough time admitting that I do have anxiety and panic attacks to an extent I just can't avoid anymore, it's nice to see that I'm not the only person who feels this way. With this it's another reminder to myself that me wanting to better my mental health isn't a bad thing to want, that for once it's okay to put myself first when I've been the type of person to put myself on the back burner. So again, I thank you.

[@Branman345]

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.

[@lyzzidc]

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!

[@bwoods417]

Watched this as a part of law enforcement training. Thank you for creating it! I hope that all is well and that it continues to provide hope for those in need.

[@brandonjohnson2350]

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

[@moe761]

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!

[@juliz07]

I feel very loved in this, I had my first panic attack at school today and didn’t know how to handle it or what it was, but then I saw this on my feed, thank you for making this video

[@Str0ngertogether]

Thank you so much for making this video. It's honestly helped so much. I'm able to understand my anxiety a lot more now xx

[@simplyangiec]

Thank you so so much for this video Marie! I really needed this video. As well as the the tips on dealing with anxiety, both from your video and in the comments. Thank you again ❤️

[@lawra89]

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.

[@Inevitable_Prophet]

Thanks for making this it helps me out a lot knowing that others understand what happens

[@DeepDreamer101]

Thank you for this video. It's definetly something I can relate to, I can't always find the words to explain to someone what having a panic attack feels like (in fact sometimes people asking makes me anxious because I feel I have to explain myself or prove something) this video is excellent and means I can just show people what it's like when the time arrives. Thank you for making this.

[@sarasippert-szollos7391]

I am physically crying after watching this. It really hit home. Thank you, thank you.

[@tessjanelle7373]

Thankyou❤️ I've been having a lot of anxiety latley and my parents just call me crazy😢 so KZbin videos like this has been making me feel better

[@maybe.yellow]

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

[@murphyboyse4135]

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.

[@paigeterch4259]

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.

[@Itsme-dl7xp]

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! 💜

[@ellahoffman1626]

I have been through every symptom in this video, and watching this did make me feel more relaxed. I now 100 percent believe I'm not alone. Thank you. ;)

[@jessicascarallred7705]

Thank you for this,more people should hear and try to understand how panic attacks affect us. God Bless you and your family 💖
