I thought I was losing my mind.
Turns out, my hormones were falling off a cliff.

Over a year ago, a two-and-a-half-hour panic attack landed me in the ER.
What no one told me?
Perimenopause + hormone drops can amplify anxiety and push an already stressed nervous system over the edge.

That panic attack wasn’t random.
It was my body waving a white flag.

Healing hasn’t been about “calming down” or pushing through.
It’s been about supporting my hormones, regulating my nervous system, and actually listening to my body.

If your anxiety feels sudden, cyclical, or out of character — you’re not broken.
You’re not crazy.

Here’s the top things I would do first things I would do if I thought I had hormonal/ cyclical anxiety.

One of the most healing things for my nervous system has been safe female friendships.

Women who let you talk.
Women who remind you you’re not crazy.
Women who make you feel seen instead of judged.

Just women helping women through adulthood. 🤍

Nose breathing is one of the best ways to communicate to your body you are safe which is so regulating to your nervous system.

It’s been a year and a half since I landed in the ER after a two-and-a-half-hour panic attack.

At the time, I thought my body was completely betraying me.

What I didn’t know yet was that my nervous system had been dysregulated for years — and that perimenopause was quietly amplifying everything.

As my hormones started dropping and shifting with my cycle, my anxiety wasn’t just “in my head.” My body literally couldn’t buffer stress the way it used to.

That panic attack wasn’t random — it was my nervous system and hormones waving a white flag.

Since then, I’ve learned how deeply connected hormones, cortisol, and anxiety really are, and how to support my body instead of fighting it.

And I share this because if your anxiety feels cyclical, sudden, or out of character — you’re not broken, and you’re not alone.
