If I find myself alone panicking, I get my keys, I get my wallet, and I just walk out of my house and I just start taking pictures.

(Text on screen reads: Reach out before you bottom out.)

To look after myself emotionally, t he main thing that I do is talk to people.

Bubble baths and face masks are on my weekly to-do list. 

Coming home and maybe reading a book or just taking some time out for myself, listening to a podcast or relaxing in bed, watching a movie. I think just taking that time out to just relax and switch your brain off is really important.

The important thing, I would say, is to just stay grounded.

Standing outside with no shoes on and connecting with nature. My mum used to always tell me to do it and I think I laughed at her and was like, "That's not going to do anything, Mum." You just go outside, walk along the grass for a
little bit, calms you. It definitely helps.

Instead of just trying to distract myself with alcohol, parties, whatever, I decided that it was time for me to talk to someone about it and seek some help. And it's not like it's a quick fix like that either. You have to be honest with yourself and the person you're sitting down with. 

Getting that fresh perspective from someone, it's not easy, but it has so much more benefits than negatives in the long run.
