โIf you're just starting with panic attacks, I won't tell you it's easy. It's not. But I will say this: you're not the only one. The train thing, the heart thing, the tiredness that makes no sense. I've been there. I still go there. What helped me was telling one person. Just one. Mine was my friend Can. He didn't try to fix it. He just listened and then made a stupid joke. It was exactly what I needed. The other thing: ask for help. A doctor, a therapist, a friend. It's not a sign of weakness. It's just practical. Like getting a guitar string replaced when it breaks. You can't play with a broken string.โ
โReading this late at night? I've been there. Two years ago, that was me. Back then it was beta blockers before presentations. Yesterday I booked a holiday. Keep going, even slowly.โ
โIn 2023, that was me. The worst part was my stomach in knots every morning. Yesterday I booked a holiday. It doesn't stay this heavy. Sending love.โ
โA note for the next person. I was in the same place in 2022. I remember avoiding phone calls like it was yesterday. I've started painting again. You get yourself back in pieces. One day at a time.โ
