This woman said, "You have no idea what someone else is going through." So true. Thank you for sharing.
Fear of fainting is one of the biggest things holding me back. Thank you :)
Same and working out helps anxiety but that feeling holds me back ugh what a crappy cycle! Hope you are doing well ❤️
Hey can uhh help me?please
I had same this dizzziness problem🥺
Update
A couple of years ago, I had my first panic attack and when you said that your life completely changed after that, that is the truest thing ever. Also I carry water with me!! It is also like a safety blanket. It makes it hard to work, to motivate myself sometimes, to have confidence being alone and so much more. I’ve been through a lot in my life and I just turned 24, no one in my family understands what I’m going through and I just want to have my life back.
Same do you want to be friends?
@@kaneshacarter7790 I’m down! :)
I also just turned 24 and have the exact same problem… I wish you the best of luck for it to go away! 🍀
@@fckSashka thank you! I wish you the best of luck as well!
Same anxiety as much as i hate it
It honestly made me a better person
fainting is my bigggest fear too. that's the entire reason i've had panic attacks and developed agoraphobia.
I swear this girl living a parallel life to mine. Right to the stories.
Thanks so much for sharing 😊 proud of you for sharing your story. I see alot of myself in you. I get that dizzy feeling....I took zannax from age 13 to 30 and when I stopped I had seizures. Not to mention severe anxiety. So in a 3 month span I was seizing on and off and trying to somehow manage myself. (Eventually I started drinking until I checked myself into a detox center and then a gorgeous behavior health campus out in nature) so anyways now in current days almost 3 years later, I manage my own anxiety. I packed up a few items and moved to a new town with my husband and son to live a completely different lifestyle. I bought a farmhouse and homestead 3 years ago and a pile of land to hunt on..and a gorgeous garden. I take on projects that both help my homestead/ family but things that are therapeutic for me. Feeding animals, tending to plants, cooking etc. When my anxiety surges though I also get that "omg I'm gonna faint" feeling. I think it makes me think of the seizures. So I get triggered by that feeling and it brings on a panic attack. I've gone within over the past couple years enough to be able to talk and breathe myself out of a panic attack. So anyways thanks for letting me share and thank you both so much for taking the time to create this video. We are never alone!
My mom took klonopin for a few years and she missed 5 days and had a major seizure! They should warn people of this.
Her beautiful smile and voice even make me feel better today. I think the key to this situation is knowing that nothing is gonna happen to you and know that you are not alone
I resonate so much with Kendra's story. This is so much like what I'm going through on my journey. Love, love, love her recovery story!! Shaan, do a follow up video with her!! 💜
Amazing and SO helpful to listen to..thank you Kendra and Shaan.. Bridget
Our parents didn't have access to this information which is sad. Like they say now, there is no better time to have a mental illness! I hope they teach children of today these tools. Kendra said a great thing "problems that use to create a setback or cause anxiety in the past really doesn't anymore."
Loved this! Her voice reminds me of Drew Barrymore 💙

Hey friend! If you’re dealing with road anxiety, perhaps my story can shed some light on how to get out of this problem as soon as possible:
Here’s my story:
One night, as I was driving from Miami to Orlando in the twilight hours, a fierce panic attack hit me like a tsunami wave. I couldn't move, my body shook, and I struggled to breathe. The world blurred, closing in on me. I wanted to pull over, but I kept going, determined not to let panic win. And I’ll add, that it really felt like impending doom. Just Incase you think that somehow your story is different, let me tell you, It felt like I was a dead zombie behind the wheel! (I wasn’t sure that I’m gonna make it out alive)
I’ll break it down: I felt like I couldn’t breathe, felt nauseous, as if I were dying. “BUT” I WASN’T FIGHTING THE SENSATION (THIS IS THE IMPORTANT PART). I wanted to prove to myself that my body could handle driving at 80 mph for another hour and a half, even though it felt unnatural and out of my control, with shallow breathing at its maximum, making me feel like I was drowning inward. Despite this, I kept driving.
Somehow, I made it to Orlando, the city lights welcoming me like a victory parade. I had faced the darkness and won, proving to myself that I was stronger than the storm inside me, that it’s possible.
On the way back, something amazing happened. I felt calm, as if the earlier struggle had never existed. No fear, no torment, nothing!
Afterward, I realized a powerful lesson: our fears can only be conquered by facing them. (Even if it feels literally impossible) Just like someone wise once said, our brains (the amygdala) learn from experience. By confronting fear, the storm eventually fades away. (Even if it takes two or five hours) It was a huge realization that echoed within me, showing me that I had the power to overcome my own fears.
Ever since, no panic attack occurred on the road again. As a matter of fact, it helped me with other panic attacks as well.
Wishing you all a happy safe journey, and a wonderful life!
I hate to but have to ask this question - Why all the relapses?? I’m not sure this point was fully addressed. How confident is she (or you) that this time she is completely over it?
I think its because she was still using benzos (xanax) which makes it difficult for your amygdala to learn from facing your fears (exposures).
Wonder when people realize this was when she reached tolerance on the Xanax. It’s no joke.
the link on the report page doesn't work
i have been fainting with anxiety since i was 18 - im now 60....recently with having covid, etc - i lost consciousness and fractured 5 ribs and had a partial lung collapse - fainting is rare with panic but for me, its not.
@@chrisbonen6933 no its called neurocardiogenic syncope - its the vagus reaction
So so so rare ....considering when your blood pressure is high and rapid heart beats...u can't faint! So u must have had sudden DROP in BP.
@@liztowers2058 probably
Try tensing your calf muscles and clasp hands together and pull outward during an attack. Pilots use this to raise BP and not pass out. Has worked for me a number of times. There are TH-cam videos on it.
What does Shaan mean by “responding”?
Can anyone pls answer my question when i am having anxiety should i tell my self that its due to anxiety or i should just stop discussing this topic with my self
@Sumeet Bisht I think it helps to recognise and acknowledge it when you’re in the middle of an anxiety or panic attack. For me at least it helps a little because i know i’m not actually dying or having a heart attack
Read Clare weekes ....the book Shaan keeps mentioning...it does WONDERS FOR ANXIETY
@@liztowers2058 hey liz thanks for reply but i am already recovered i read paul david book that one is easy to understand as he translated claire weeks book in easier way.
I will get his book! What's it called?
@@liztowers2058 at last a life by paul david
the only thing that has helped me with nocturnal panic attacks is prozac
Did you experienced insomnia?
That's my name too!
I have newly developed fear of high blood pressure 😕

Yes. Read Clare weekes book..Shaan keeps mentioning
