#16 - Overcoming Anxiety and Panic Attacks

One thing that most of us are too scared to admit is the fact that we experience anxiety, specifically panic attacks. Mental health is, until this very day, a very touchy subject. Most of those who are experiencing panic attacks tend to keep it to themselves in the hopes of figuring out a way to handle it.
