I ran across your video and I’m currently going through some things and it’s comforting to know that you’re never alone.

I so admire and appreciate your openness and vulnerability. Mental health struggles are so very difficult on so many levels. I experienced my first panic attack a few years ago as an adult and have had many since then. It is absolutely miserable and I am so sorry that you experience them. The way you were still able to speak affirmations over yourself, your brain, and your writing is so inspiring to me. Your writing will be ready for you when you are able to write. And KZfaq will be here when you have the margin. Take care of yourself however you need right now! ❤

I just found your channel and I'm so glad I did. I felt like I was listening to myself while watching this. I think the hardest part for me is the shame when I can't show up and work on the book that I said I was writing, when it takes "too long" to finish projects because the mental health struggles are so real. When in reality, I know there is no time limit. Thanks for this ❤

I know this video wasn't easy for you to make, but I am so glad you took the time to be open and vulnerable about your own mental health. I hope that others can see this and feel less alone in their struggles. I have severe diagnosed ADHD, and one of the symptoms of that was anxiety/depression. It felt like my brain had so much to say and do, and my body couldn't keep up. I would get locked in spirals of thinking about all the things I needed/wanted to do, that I would get overwhelmed and not do any of them. Getting on medication was one of the best things I could have done for myself. I told myself for the longest time that if I took medication, I was "weak" but really it was the opposite. Being able to recognize an imbalance somewhere in your brain, and taking the initiative to work on it takes a strong person. YOU are a strong person! Wishing you nothing but the best :)

Sending so many hugs, nothing to tell you other than I can’t imagine how awful your panic attacks are and how anxiety makes you feel. I’ve had a couple of panic attacks and they’re AWFUL. So all the hugs and understanding from me to you ❤

I love you. I'm praying for you. I'm proud of you. *hugs when you want them*

I'm so sorry, Natalie. We have SO much in common 🧡 I also have a histroy of panic disorder that rewired my nervous system and vasovagal syncope was unfortunately all too common for me too 🫠 it's such an isolating experience and even therapsists and doctors didnt really understand me. Please reach out if you ever need to vent 🧡

Thank you for being so open and trying to help others in such a hard time ❤️‍🩹. I’ve struggled a lot with mental illness over the years and it took me a long time to get back on my feet. Learning how to manage wanting to be creative with self care is a whole other beast that I’m still working on and hearing other people talk about it reminds me to keep going in a healthy way. I hope you take whatever time you need. KZfaq will be here if/when you are ready.
