Ten percent of the world’s population are impacted by depression or anxiety, and only a minority respond to their first treatment.

I always noticed that I was different; I was academically successful, but I still had trouble focusing and interacting with others, and it took a toll on me. After getting diagnosed, I realized that I had ADHD. I was not sure if it made my life easier, as my family wasn’t aware of my condition. It was something I was ashamed of because I knew people would not sympathize and react negatively to it. They had different opinions. But I learned that I shouldn’t be ashamed. It’s okay for me to be different, and I want that to be shared with neurotypical and neurodiverse people to change their views on mental health.

Panic attacks can be scary, especially in the moment that you realize that you're having one and that it's going to get worse before it gets better. A panic attack can be overcome. These next few minutes are all you need to enjoy.
This video will show you how. Distraction is a classic coping strategy for a reason. Focusing on the objects around you and breathing exercises can help reduce fear while you wait for the attack's end. These techniques can be learned in this video. If you are having panic attacks right now, you can also use the distraction of the video.
However, it is not meant to replace proper mental health care. It's possible to experience a panic attack without any particular reason. However, panic attacks often occur as part of an anxiety disorder. If you feel the panic attacks are getting worse, consult a therapist, or your doctor.
