I’ve been motivated to write this to do my bit to try to tackle the stigma attached to mental health problems and to encourage people who are going through a tough time.

Part of me is uncomfortable writing about something so personal but I feel it could help change people’s attitudes and help people who are struggling to realise that they’re not alone.

I’m a completely normal, happy and successful person who has been through some very dark, difficult times and come out the other side a stronger, more rounded person.

The Subtle Ways Your Kid Is Trying To Show You Their Coronavirus Anxiety | HuffPost Life
The coronavirus has changed daily life dramatically for millions of children across the United States. Even if you live in a part of the country that hasn’t seen a lot of cases of COVID-19 — and even if you work hard to filter the news your kid sees or hears about the virus — life is different now. It’s heavy and stressful in so many ways, and more than one-third of American adults say the pandemic has had a serious impact on their mental health. Even young kids pick up on that.

1983 sticks out to me. I did a really bad pre-season. I was down, I couldn’t train properly. I felt like I had a really bad flu. That was the start of my mental health problems, but it was decades until I was diagnosed with depression and bipolar disorder.

How I Overcame Social Anxiety In Just One Hour
I lived with social anxiety for over 20 years, right through my entire childhood. At the time, I didn’t know I had a mental health issue. I just assumed I was incredibly shy and it was something I would grow out of. But that didn’t happen. In fact, as I hit adulthood, it got WORSE. Much worse. To the point where I flunked college because I stopped attending and went through university as a social pariah.

What is General Anxiety Disorder?
General Anxiety Disorder or, G.A.D, makes the sufferer feel anxious regardless of the situation they are in. Symptoms of G.A.D. may vary from one sufferer to another (see Anxiety Symptoms Explained) However, we would remind you that G.A.D., like all anxiety disorders has nothing to do with insanity nor will it ever lead that G.A.D., like all anxiety disorders, has nothing to do with a mental illness nor will G.A.D. ever lead to one.

Dehydration and Anxiety
Many things can aggravate or trigger anxiety and dehydration is one of them. When our bodies are dehydrated they do not function as well. Water makes up on average 60 – 70 percent of the human body, it carries hormones and nutrients to their destinations, so when fluid consumption is reduced this procedure starts to slow down causing many bodily dysfunctions.

Sarah’s Anxiety Story
I have always been an anxious person since childhood, worrying about things rather than playing with other kids my age but my problems really started around 15 years ago. After losing my best friend to cancer and my partner at the time leaving me weeks after having out daughter, I thought I was coping really well, and then one day I was in town with a friend and we were standing in a queue at the bank and we were chatting away and suddenly everything went hazy.

Hormones and Anxiety
When I first came into contact with phobic patients in my work with Professor Isaac Marks at the Maudsley Hospital, some 20 years ago, I was quickly struck by how many female patients described the worsening of their symptoms in the few days before their periods. An increase not just in the general pre-menstrual symptoms but in the tendency to panic, to become more anxious and to experience a heightening of the physical symptoms of anxiety.

We want to give back to such a deserving cause.

Do Panic Attacks Cause Heart Attacks?
Towards the end of 2008, some research was published in the European Heart Journal, which as part of a larger study looked at the links between panic disorder and heart disease. The results of this study were reported fairly widely and one particular article, in the DailyMail, entitled “Panic attack sufferers’ increased heart risk” led the No Panic telephone lines being deluged with calls from panic attack sufferers and, in particular, many calls from people who had previously been reassured that panic attacks do not lead to heart attacks.
