Joyce Pring expressed support those with mental health problems after experiencing panic attack aboard a plane.

Joyce recounted her first ever in-flight panic attack when she flew to Iloilo last week.

“I don’t know if it’s a mental health anxiety residue from the last time my body was subjected to atmosphere change (scuba diving) or if my manic depression episode had something to do with it but in any case it was incredibly frightening,” she revealed.

She then encouraged those who experience similar struggles, 
“Seek help and know that you are not alone. Mine was aided with breathing exercises and prayers, but know that there are many other ways to get professional help and ease that suffering.”

 

Missing cold streets and a hand to hold. ?????? This was taken in Amsterdam last year! Where shall we travel to next, 2018? ?? . I just have to share, last week when I flew to Iloilo, I had my first ever in-flight panic attack. I don't know if it's a mental anxiety residue from the last time my body was subjected to atmosphere change (scuba diving) or if my manic depression episode had something to do with it (????) but in any case it is was incredibly frightening. I just want to encourage anyone who experiences these serious struggles on a daily basis - seek help and know that you are not alone. Mine was aided with breathing exercises and prayers, but know that there are many other ways to get professional help and ease the suffering. ?? Wala lang. Na share ko lang kasi natakot talaga ako. Hahahahaha. Especially since Ive taken hundreds of flights and Ive never had any discomfort until that day. I guess God has a way of taking my little selfish confidences and pulling me back in complete dependence on Him. ????????‍?? . Have an awesome Sunday, friends!!! Let's go places this 2018! ? #joythtotheworld #travel #amsterdam PS - my vlog on Amsterdam is already up on my YouTube. Hehe. ????
