A Short Film by Maddie Denney that portrays what it can feel like to experience an anxiety attack.
Triggers of anxiety look different for everyone. What goes unnoticed by some can be the very thing that pushes a person experiencing the overwhelming, intrusive, and uneasy sensations of anxiety, over the edge. Furthermore, the pressure of the public schooling environment can worsen symptoms. These conditions are often understated or ignored by parents, teachers, and even other students. Anxiety is just one of the many mental health disorders that impact students. According to Teen Mental Health, 1 in 5 young people suffer from a mental health disorder. That being said, always remember to check in on your peers and never be ashamed to ask for help if you need it.
