Unfortunately, I am mentally dysfunctional. I have a panic disorder. I was diagnosed with it when I was 13 years old. I see things that are not there. I also hear strange and unrealistic sounds. Some people make fun of me because they don't understand what I experience, and some people ask questions because they want to understand. I visit my therapist two days a week. He said, "Horrific Hallucinations" cause me to freak-out a lot. Every time I start panicking my heart beats fast, I have a headache, my stomach hurts, I can't breathe correctly, I cry, my body can't stop shaking, I scream very loudly, I get hot flashes and sometimes cold flashes. If you would like to know how to help me the right way whenever I lose my mind please read the options down below. 👇

1. Tell me to calm down or relax.

2. Shush me!

3. Remind me to breathe.

4. Let me know I am safe, and everything will be alright. 😘

By the way, shush is basically saying; "Shhhhhh......" It's a sound people make with their mouth when they want silence!
