Panic attacks can feel intense, overwhelming & isolating but you’re not alone 💙

Everyone experiences them differently. Some are obvious, others happen quietly. During a panic attack your brain & body act like there’s danger even when there isn’t - causing dizziness, nausea, shaking or racing heart.

Sometimes it’s hard to tell when a mate is struggling, especially if they keep saying they’re “okay.” There are usually small signs that things might not be all good – it often comes down to changes in their behaviour.

You’re not behind. You’re not too much. You’re doing your best, and that’s enough. Your worth isn’t measured by how busy you are or how “together” you look. You deserve rest, support + love - exactly as you are. 💙

Sometimes the best way to check in with your mates is by switching off & hanging out IRL 💙

Whether it’s kicking the footy or getting creative together, there’s heaps of things you can do to disconnect & hang out away from the screens.

How do you like to connect with friends offline? #mentalhealth
