panic attacks

Sudden periods of intense fear. But remember, you're not alone.

Flawed, Fierce, and Full of Glitter: A Story of Reclamation
There’s a special kind of audacity required to reclaim your worth when the world has spent years convincing you you shouldn’t. It’s like walking into a party you weren’t invited to, grabbing the mic, and belting out a power ballad while maintaining unbroken eye contact with everyone who ever doubted you. Which, let’s be honest, is exactly the kind of energy we should all be cultivating.

Anxiety on a Plate: Is Your Diet Keeping You Stressed?
Intro: When Your Snack Attack Triggers a Meltdown You're snapping at your coworker, can't focus, and doomscrolling into a spiral - sound familiar? Glance at your plate: it's been coffee and a stale croissant since dawn, with cereal for dinner the past four nights. "Maybe I'm just tired," you mutter. Or burnt out.

Guilt
I don’t hear anything, but I see everything. I see the priest on the podium moving his arms passionately, his eyes fixed on the Bible before him. I see the mother and father falling over themselves, their mouths wrenched open in a soundless scream. I see my friend, Jessie, beside me, wiping her tear-streaked face too hard with the back of her hands. Finally, I see her, but I don’t cry like them. I don’t feel like them. Instead, I’m suspended in time; a growing numbness intertwines around my bones, slowly consuming me like a predator would its prey.

The Loneliness of Mental Clarity After Chaos
No one talks about this part. The part after the breakdown. After the healing. After the storms of confusion finally quiet down.

Why Patience Is Beneficial To Our Psychophysiology
Patience. It is a Word We All Know... And Perhaps We All Hate It Equally. Especially in a World that is Dominated by Microwave Thinking...

The Hustle Culture Nearly Killed Me
I don’t remember the exact moment I stopped recognizing myself. Maybe it was the third night in a row I fell asleep in my car with my laptop still glowing on my thighs. Or maybe it was the morning I coughed up blood into a paper napkin, wiped it clean, and just… kept typing. Like a machine. Like a woman possessed.

Silent Hands, Loud Truth
In a small town wrapped in foggy mornings and quiet streets, lived a boy named Haris. He was eight years old, with soft brown eyes and a silence deeper than the sea. No one really knew him. His classmates barely noticed his presence. Teachers marked his attendance, but he was just a shadow in the corner—always quiet, always watching, always hiding.

Inside the Human Mind
Inside the Human Mind: A Journey Through Thought, Emotion, and Consciousness The human mind is one of the most complex and fascinating entities known to science. It is the seat of thought, memory, emotion, and consciousness—qualities that define us as individuals and shape our perceptions of the world. Understanding the mind involves exploring the intricate connections between biology, psychology, and philosophy. This journey into the human mind reveals how our thoughts emerge, how emotions influence our behavior, and how consciousness gives us a sense of self.

I Tried to Meditate and Accidentally Summoned a Panic Attack
The Great Meditation Experiment (Or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Chaos) Let me set the scene: It’s 3 AM. I’ve just watched a YouTube video titled "10 Minutes to Inner Peace!" featuring a man who looks like he’s never once stressed-eaten an entire pizza while crying over a spreadsheet. Inspired, I sit cross-legged on my floor, close my eyes, and prepare to ascend to a higher plane of existence.

What Pain Really Does to Us
Pain is a universal experience. We all go through it in one form or another. Whether it's emotional heartbreak, physical injury, or the quiet ache of loneliness, pain is something none of us can escape. But here's the twist — pain isn't always the enemy. In fact, in many ways, it's our greatest teacher.

Born At 28. Content Warning.
Never in my life had I imagined a day where I could wake up, stretching my arms to the sky as the goose bumps danced along my skin....without that feeling. That deep rooted anguish that floods in after that painfully short second of nothingness. That second when you wake up and for a moment you are unaware of the pain. A second of mercy before reality sets in, overpowered by that pit in your stomach and that growing hole in your chest.

The Silence in Room 204
Marla Thorne had worked night shifts at the Dorian Crest Hotel for nearly three years. The graveyard hours were quiet, mostly uneventful, and perfect for someone who preferred the company of still walls over people. She manned the front desk with her usual thermos of coffee, crossword puzzles, and the flickering hum of the lobby’s antique chandelier.
