Heart beating fast
Your own voice repetitively fearing everything most people wouldn't think twice about.
Legs weak, feeling like jelly.
Dizziness sets in as heart beats harder.
Oh shit, am I going to pass out or die this time?
The cycle of anxiety & panic attacks.
Many times there are triggers, other times, hard to find the trigger.

The holiday season is a really tough one for many people. I have a friend who lost both her parents to COVID. She talks about how tough it is when seeing everyone's festive family photos on social media.

In the days leading up to Christmas, Twitter removed the #ThereIsHelp feature. This is part of a continued pattern by Elno to radicalize the platform. Really feels like the Internet has been backsliding on the progress that's been made in the past few years.

"Just days before Christmas, Twitter disabled a feature that displayed suicide prevention and other safety resources in response to user searches for content on certain topics. After outcry by consumer safety groups and Twitter users, the function has been restored.

The feature was identified by the hashtag #ThereIsHelp and would provide information at the top of search results whenever a Twitter user looked up topics that included suicide,"
