ASMR for ANXIETY and PANIC Relief | Helping you calm down 💕

Triggers: mic brushing, finger flutters, hand sounds, whispers, face touching, personal attention, breathing, mic scratching, repetition, anxiety help/comfort, tapping, hypnosis, "shhh, it's ok, i'm here"

Hello again 💜 There are heavy hearts around the world right now and I hope this video is able to bring you a little comfort. I was originally going to make this video centered around school and academic anxiety but I felt compelled, with all that's going on, to create another general anxiety/panic help video. Please let me know if you'd like to see more content like this from me! Mental health is something very important to me so I really like making videos like this. These are all techniques I've learned and benefited from during my "journey" with anxiety.

Please note that I am NOT a mental health professional.

*EFT, or emotional freedom technique, is an alternative treatment for physical pain and emotional distress. Though still being researched, EFT tapping has been used to treat people with anxiety and people with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).*


P.S. sorry for all the stomach noise! I did my best to edit it out haha

Until next time!

I like that you say “we are safe” instead of “you are safe.” When I’m feeling anxious when trying to sleep all I want is for someone to be by my side. It helps when you know you’re not alone. Thank you for this little detail to add even more comfort. ❤️

[sotypicalmee]

Nothing is more comforting than getting comforted by someone who ACTUALLY seems to get it. Thank you so much for this and for doing it in a whisper 🥺❣️

[adamvelichka]

Just like you I feel like my anxiety comes out of no where. And just like you my anxiety causes physical symptoms and then I become hypersensitive to those symptoms which causes me to have worse and worse symptoms which only fuels the fire. This is the only video that's been able to calm me down. It's so nice to know I'm not alone. Anxiety has a way of making you feel so alone and isolated. God bless all of us who fight this disease. You're all loved and not alone💗

[crazystay.quokka]

The “I am not weird or broken or over dramatic for feeling this way” really got me 😭 It is so nice to feel heard and like someone understands what I’m going through and I so appreciate you putting in the time and effort to make these videos. Sending hugs your way! 🤗🤗🤗

I started crying ten secs into the video. I cannot thank you enough for this. I've been suffering from a severe anxiety disorder and panic attacks since I was 16. I started therapy long ago and I started to feel better and learnt to control my attacks whenever they appear. It seems it has gotten worse lately, I've been having a hard time and this week has been a nonstop rollercoaster of anxiety attacks, feeling like I can't breath and I'm about to pass out or have a heart attack at any moment. No matter how many times I've experienced it, I never get used to it and I enter this loop of anxiety-fear caused by it triggering even more anxiety, and it's honestly horrible and so draining. This is the very first video that truly made me feel understood and like I am not alone. I am so sorry for everyone who suffers from this and I just wanna say we're extremely strong for dealing with it. Remember it will pass every single time and we're not alone ❤ Thanks a lot again for this video, you have no idea how much you're helping 🫂

Sarah, with tears in my eyes, tears of relief for being seen and accepted. So much of the anxiety for me is the fear of not being accepted, or being a burden. This video was beyond healing. Thank you💜✨

[alexwhatheydo]

Every night in Ukraine we have air alarms and shelling, such an ASMR is exactly what can calm down a bit, thank you for your video!
P.S. Thanks everyone for your support!

[kirstycallaly]

I am 41 years old and you have no idea how much I needed this 30 years ago. I finally have someone to help. Thank you ❤️

[JawaherMG]

I had a very terrible night filled with tears and panic/anxiety attacks, I needed a distraction and I came across your video, I’m really glad I did!! This helped me a lot and I ended up feeling much better and falling asleep. Thank you and I hope everyone is safe and happy🤍🤍🤍

[lunacore]

To anyone reading, I'm here for you! Let yourself rest, you absolutely deserve it :')💗

[johnmichael]

The timing was impeccable, my anxiety had been bad the last couple of days so seeing this was very helpful. Thank you very much!

[millie]

This is my go-to video whenever I’m having bad anxiety or when I can’t sleep. Sarah just makes it feel like she really understands what’s happening, and makes me feel less alone. She’s a friend I need in my life, and I am forever grateful ❤

[JourneyofShadows]

I suffer greatly from depression, anxiety, and complete paranoia and fear, so having this definitely helps me feel relaxed and remember that there are people in my life who love and care for me.

[MonstrousCosmos]

LOVE this video, very well timed. "the human brain is very weird" is a vibe lol

as a note for anyone else who finds deep breathing difficult: it can sometimes actually make anxiety worse! it definitely does for me sometimes, and I've had it trigger multiple panic attacks in a row before. afaik (I'm not a professional lol) it can increase sympathetic activation by stimulating blood flow/increasing heartrate. so for anyone who's been caught in that weird 'I'm deep breathing but it isn't working' or 'I feel worse when I deep breath' just know you're not alone! I appreciate the therapist who explained the process to me/helped me figure out alternatives/learn how to deep breathe more effectively a lot.

[tracymay]

This is the second time you have rescued me from an intense self harming panic attack. I wish I had a friend, or mother, or sister like you.

[ericamartini]

This video made me cry. I just feel like I have a real friend. Thank you for doing this. You seem like a really nice person.

[MattyTingles]

This video is so so so lovely and helpful! Love this!!! 💜💜💜
