Does this look like the face of a girl having a pa Does this look like the face of a girl having a panic attack? If you thought no, you’d be wrong. 😉 If you’ve ever had an anxiety or panic attack, you know just how visceral and terrifying they can be. If you haven’t experienced panic or anxiety, it can be helpful to know that it is not always “just worry” or racing thoughts. The physical symptoms of anxiety are often very difficult to ignore. It can feel like you are dying. For example, I have had heart palpitations, chest pain, stomach upset (hoo boy that’s putting it lightly), felt like I couldn’t breathe or couldn’t swallow, have to pee a lot, rapid breathing, shortness of breath, so hot and sweating, back pain, and more. I remember leaving (running) out of my college dorm into the 30 degree weather and not feeling the cold. The memories of panic attacks can feel so real, like they had just happened yesterday instead of 10 years ago. I know I am not alone in this, and several of you are nodding your heads right along with me. If only “just calm down…you’re overreacting…everything is fine” would fix everything, right? 😂🙃🙄 Seeing myself in this photo reminds me we rarely, if ever, know what’s really going on with people we interact with. Even people we love! With the current you-know-what going on, coming back to rear it’s ugly head again, I think anxiety is more prevalent than ever. More panic attacks, more fear and anxiety as a society. So, let’s continue talking about and supporting each other in mental health, shall we? I’ll do my best to share as well, because I have to remember it may help someone else not feel so alone! #anxiety #panicattack #panic #mentalhealth #mentalhealthawareness

When started teaching myself lettering with a gell When started teaching myself lettering with a gelly roll pen on a card table, I didn’t know then what a creative hobby would bring into my life. Teaching, workshops, connection, creativity, and most importantly hearing the stories of how lettering has made a positive impact in peoples’ lives. All of these good things came into my life from simply deciding to start something new, making a commitment not to stop when it didn’t look perfect. I hope today I can encourage you just to start something creative. You never know where it might lead, and how it might impact your life! ✨ Only 24 hours left to join the #laurenheimletteringclub!
