I was like sounds exactly like my first one

Fucking Morgan teaching me how to deal with anxiety...... Lets preserve this national treasure

You never forget your first panic attack. Anyone dealing with this stay strong. Thanks Morgan! \m/

Jesus god this guy just described my anxiety better then I could have

I was a freshman when i had my first panic attack. 23 years ago. Happened on a tuesday night. Ill never forget it. I had to keep it to myself for weeks bc i knew my parents wouldnt care or take it seriously. I called my grandma at 4am scared to death just wanting to die so the feelings and thoughts would just stop. Its never completely gone away. He's right. Its the most debilitating thing ive ever experienced. Scared to death doesnt even come close to describing accurately the feelings i had.

hahahaha FEEL WHEN IM IN DOUBT

I can agree with this feeling it sucks. Morgan and sevendust rock

Chris keep doing what you're doing! Great dudes like Morgan sharing their experience with Anxiety and Panic breaks the stigma. Talking about mental health struggles makes us feel less alone 😌

I’ve been there and I’m his age and a working drummer as well. I never had suicidal thoughts but I’ve felt helpless when the episodes happened. What helped me was objectively observing what was happening and using breathing exercises to talk myself back to reality. I perform all the time and it’s there for a few seconds but goes away as the rational mind takes over. For anyone else suffering from this just use deep breathing exercises and hone in on the present moment. Going through tough times also helps because you end up fearing nothing. That’s me today, completely fearless, please work on that if you have this. That’s the end goal.

Not sure Morgan will ever understand how much he helps others struggling with this. When mine began five years ago, one of my first thoughts while watching Morgan play on KZread was, “this man doesn’t experience this crap. He’s up there playing like a savage.” I would just feel so small. I too eventually got a grip on the panic attacks and now live with anxiety.

Man, this was a touching talk. Thanks for sharing this Morgan!

Morgan and I have that very anxiety issue in common except. I learned how to beat it by working out. I hate working out but I do it because I hate the anxiety more. Additionally any thyroid stimulating foods will set you off

Absolutely . This helped mine as well. I think some people , such as myself , can’t sit still and I’m wired for manual labor so place me in school or church where it’s silent and you’re expected to be quiet and listen , mentally I start to drift off in my mind and my body needs to let loose so my anxiety just attacks . When I am working I am on 100 and my anxiety is nonexistent. I have to work out as well because I have all this pent up aggression and strength and if I don’t go to bed nearly exhausted then I don’t sleep well

Thank god for this real talk I'm 38 and been fighting panic attacks for 3 years the exact same symptoms maybe worse and videos like this are key to getting over this shit

I can totally relate to Morgan

He describes it very well

Very similar story for me, I am 37 now and still battling it but managing to hold down a full time job and living alone. It's rough man. My first one I was 24 and it happened while I was driving a golf cart playing 18. I passed completely out while driving. Now I have it down to full body sweats, dry heaves, and limb weakness so I have to sit down, hearing gets hollow, eyesight blurs. I just go with the flow and try to remain calm. But knowing how it happens when it wants, I never go out anymore and I haven't been in a relationship for over 15 years now. Too prideful / shameful to let others see me in that state. We are not alone! Love that Morgan eloquently spoke up on his personal experience with it.

Thank you for sharing this! My fear is dying also so these panic attacks and anxiety attacks scare the shit out of me.

Morgan Rose is so down to earth and a badass drummer! Shiprocked Cruise Alumni 🤘🏼👊🏼🔥

I have been trough that during more than two years it has been the worst thing for me

Have not had panic attacks at this volume or on this scale but am glad he’s generally got the better of it. His defiance of it explains his drumming and vocal style.

Anxiety started for me in high school and I was heavily into drugs so I assumed the drugs were turning against me - and they were . Then I quit and the anxiety stayed and I learned from multiple family members we have hereditary panic attacks . In my late 30s now and my mindset is very different I’ve learned that thinking negatively like “it’s hereditary and that’s the way it is” is basically the reason why you stay crippled mentally . Learn what triggers your anxiety . Explore it . Don’t take drugs like Xanax - you’ll only depend on it and then that in itself triggers a panic that you’re running low . You have to re-wire your mind to believe it’s strong even when it’s not . And it will ultimately become strong doing so

Thanks for this. I had my first full blown panic attack right before I turned 50. Anxiety is a horrible thing to deal with. I’ve been dealing with it for four years now.

Damn, I know what he’s talking about. I feel you man!

Been a fan of your Content fm 🇵🇭 Philippines..

Respect

I think we can all remember our first anxiety attack. Absolutely horrific

i had that similar experience but that panic attack came with debilitating tinnitus.. my theory is the older we get the gut gets weaker... take care of ur guts folks.. detox once or twice a week..

Damn, that's EXACTLY how it happens the first time! I was at the mall with my sister and it hit me in the food court. Gagging and freaking out at the same time, it was no fun.

I had a panic attack where I hyperventilated and I thought I was having a seizure but it was that I was losing oxygen in my head from breathing too fast. After that It’s been on and off. Alcohol didn’t help neither

Wow

if it gets to derealization just know some day it goes away like a super slow downlaid

I know, feels like a heart attack every time they come.

Shit I’ve never thought how much it resembles a bad high

Alcohol makes it worse

I can relate but the days of me expressing myself so openly or even allowing such emotions to control me are going. Last time I opened up, I was taken advantage of. It's better (for me) to just kill those types of emotion and practice being a robot. Sevendust rule 🫶🏾🤘🏾
