When the anxiety hits 💦💦💦

For some context just in case: Kai's hands going numb is something I experience myself when anxiety spikes really high, panic attack might or might not follow, depends on how well I'm able to push it all down lol. I don't know if this is a common thing or not, so I wanted to mention it in case it's confusing for anyone ;;;

I've always visualised this sensation as the static on old TV screens and the feeling in your finger when you try touching the screen, so I used it as an image in the comic, in hopes it would resonate with some people! 

In other news I really enjoyed drawing the water and the drain for some reason 😂

Oof numb hands suck. I myself get cold sweat, heavy stomach, and chest pain usually.

Miranda

For me it's difficulty breathing and I feel like I'm not in charge of the thoughts in my head.

Courtney Wells

I loved this episode. I experience anxiety and panic attacks when I'm cooking by myself at work and it's a 3000$ night and I have to scream in the freezer but I find the visual of Kais panic incredibly relatable.

Lacey Carr

I relate so hard! My face, neck, and chest will also become numb and tingly when my anxiety rises. I used to think I was dying 😅

Lagiacrus

My anxiety manifests in uncontrolled restless energy. I can't sit still. My hands shake and I feel like I'm having a hard time breathing even if the act of breathing is find and struggle free. I need to go-go-go. And then when my day ends and I can hide in my room I come out of it and I end up dead tired for 2 days after. Like I have no more energy to spend and I just feel like I haven't slept for a week for 2 days and then I'm fine-ish

Awwww bb🥺🥺 My whole body gets numb when I have attacks. It’s a awful feeling

Caroline Cyr La Rose

Anxiety for me is constriction in my chest (like my heart being wrung). But I have experienced hand and face numbness before and even temporary hand paralysis. Must be hard for you as an artist to have hand numbness... I wonder if it’s related... Anyway, hugs to Kai 💕💕 everything is gorgeous as usual

Stinky

I love that you included something you deal with, also amazing chapter as always 💖

Stinky

I think I've had something similar with my hands, I also feel like my body isn't part of me.

TV static is the best way to describe it 😅 I get horrible, spontaneous panic attacks. Chills, sweat, muscle weakness, tingles in feet and hands, slurred speech. Sweet Kai... I'm glad Jasper is so supportive

LunaSukii

You successfully drew what the beginning of a panic attack is like. That's just how I feel when one is coming.

Nadia Coutinho

Aye all the anxiety gang coming out 🙌🏼😂 I have really bad anxiety, and panic attacks, so I know exactly what that feels like and the fact that any lil thing can trigger it and I'll have no idea what caused it. Also *very off topic and no one cares* I've finally got an appointment this Friday with the nurse to see if I get a diagnosis for my anxiety or if I can at least figure out what the heck is wrong with me so wish me luck😅

Nadia Coutinho

Sorry to have babbled on Kan, as always your work is amazing and it has made my day..

Nadia Coutinho

The way you drew Kai's hands to literally illustrate how it feels tho..... 🙌🏼 Just genius 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

Jammamin

Hoooooihhhhhh my gosh these chapters are so good they had me spinning my head

Rachael W

If I'm *super* stressed my face will go numb rather than my hands which...doesn't help the situation...at all 😅

kenda1l

I always feel anxiety and panic in my stomach first, but numb hands is really common. It's because when your body goes into fight or flight mode, it redirects blood flow to your major muscle groups instead of areas like hands and feet. I think the static portrays that perfectly. Wonderful update!

Ahleena

That is such a unique way to represent numbness. I love it! I have experienced more anxiety recently and always feel nauseous and then start to feel really shaky

Mab

I've honestly never experienced numbness in my hands when anxious. With anxiety, I usually experience an almost choking feeling as tho I'm never getting enough air? Like almost there as if there is a hand resting on my throat that won't leave? But that's really interesting on how different anxiety and panic is for people. Anyway love the update! I want to give Kai a hug 😭

PhoenixFyre

Seems he is having a major Panic Attack. They do suck.

Sappho

Oh no Kai bby 💜💜💜

feminisTina

I just joined after seeing this on Tapas. And now I am all caught up and I don't know what I am going to do with myself! lol

Colleen McIlwain

I know what you’re talking about! My hands and feet get numb and the more I panic, the higher the numbness climbs. I think it comes from me hyperventilating, so not even oxygen is available to perfuse to my extremities (my core is shunting good blood to itself to keep me alive, even though I feel like I’m dying) **I’m a pharmacist and had to take anatomy and physiology classes. 😅 So, in short, I’m a nerd ❤️

Amelia Roberts

Oh my! Don't break apart Kai! Do what makes you happy. Not whatever anyone thinks you should be doing! Came here from Tapas btw love your work! These two are the sweetest

Cynthia Smith (Dex)

I know with my anxiety attacks my fingers will go numb, the arm will feel weak and a little tightness and pain in chest and shoulder. But if I end up in a panic attack I straight up feel like I'm having a heart attack. I've learned I can deal with big one but not so much the small ones. 😆
