The person I wanted to be felt like a fairytale.
I had drifted from who I thought they would be and where I thought I should be in life. I had massive panic attacks that stole over 8 years of my life. I saw counselor after counselor but nothing worked. I was barely hanging on with so many unhealthy coping mechanisms. And then…
I had the thought – “What if I’m not the problem? What if the problem was not my behavior but all thoughts and beliefs that swirled around in my head.”
I created a step by step guide that helped me identify the lie I believed that caused me to drift.
I have not had a panic attack in over a decade and now am committed to helping as many people as I can.

I drifted to the point that I couldn't distinguish between depression, anxiety and myself.
I became resigned to a melancholy life and threw myself into academic work. When I came to the realization that my life didn’t have to be dictated by anxiety and depression, I began a journey that has led to tremendous growth and joy.
