Positive thoughts and self-talk/Health/Staying mentally healthy
Positive thoughts and self-talk
Today I will be explaining what “Positive thoughts and self-talk” is. Positive thoughts are when you think about something positive about yourself, and self-talk is where you encourage yourself, or say something positive about yourself. For example, you could probably say something to yourself like “I can do it!’, ‘I’m good enough!’, ‘If I want to, I can.”These positive words are usually used at a game or something challenging.
Meaning:
Positive thoughts and self-talk makes you feel good about yourself, and things that are going on in your life. Self-talking, and having positive thoughts about yourself, can increase your self-confidence. Self-talking means, talking to yourself, but talking about positive things about yourself. Another way of self-talking is, encouraging yourself.
One way of encouraging yourself, could be by letting yourself know that you still exist.
Positive thoughts mean, good thoughts about yourself. Maybe you could think about something nice that has happened to you in life, or if not, you can just make up something positive about yourself. And remember, positive means a good sign, and Negative is no good sign.
Negative thoughts are something, way different from positive thoughts. Negative thoughts are bad thoughts. Negative thoughts can make you scared and feel a bit stressed, and lose your confidence. You may feel no one is there for you, no one is listening to you, and you may feel like you don’t exist anymore, which can lead up to depression. That is why, you need to think positive about yourself and ignore the hate around the world, and live your life.
Positive thoughts and self-talk, can also engage with your Well being. Thinking more positively, can help your mental and emotional health, and physical health by having lower stress levels, lower depression levels, and having a healthier life, and better coping skills in stress and difficult situations.

Panic attacks/Staying mentally healthy
Panic attack
Panic attacks are feelings of severe anxiety that start and finish quite suddenly. Also, the name “Panic attack” can also be called “Anxiety attack.”
If you feel over scared about something, or lose control of your mind, you could easily have a panic attack. You may feel that you need to immediately escape or find help. Also, if you are about to have a panic attack, your feelings can also be so scary, you may feel like you're about to die or lose sight.
Such an extreme reaction would be normal in a situation, where your life could really be in danger, for example, if you are swimming in the ocean, and you could clearly see a shark making its way to you, that could be a situation in real life.
But panic attacks happen when there is no real danger. Panic attacks are situations that happen in your mind. For example, there could be something scary you keep thinking about in mind and it won’t go away, then you start to panic and have a panic attack.
Experiencing panic attacks, often make people feel unwell. They may have trouble sleeping, and find it hard to relax and enjoy themselves. People who are affected by panic attacks, find it hard and scared to do anything alone.
In severe cases this means you cannot work or have a social life outside home. You may lose touch with your friends.
If you or anyone else you know have panic attacks, or feeling stressed or depressed, get help immediately. Or talk to someone you trust the most in your life. If need help, call 131114
