05.10.2025 07:33 β π 14 π 3 π¬ 1 π 0Asking for help isnβt attention-seeking. Itβs a sign of someone fighting to stay.
β MYTH: βTheyβre just attention-seeking.β
βοΈ FACT: Suicide behaviours are often ways to cope with unbearable pain or to ask for help when words fail.
Dismissing this as attention-seeking adds shame.
The response matters.
It can shape whether someone seeks help or not π

Therapy dog Lola just rolls with it (literally). No panic, no drama, just adapting. Maybe we humans could try that too. One day at a time. π www.alliswellapproach.co.uk

Infographic comparing Panic Attack vs. Anxiety Attack, detailing onset, intensity, and duration of symptoms for each. Text in while on a blue background: Panic Attack. Can occur unexpectedly. Comes on suddenly. Symptoms are intense and disruptive. Typically short-lived (few mins to an hour). Anxiety Attack. Usually has specific triggers. Builds gradually. Symptoms can vary from mild to severe. Can last for days, weeks, or months.
The terms anxiety and panic attack are often used interchangeably, but theyβre actually very different.
While both can involve rapid heartbeat, tightness in breathing, and a sense of unease, they differ in intensity, duration, and cause.
Hereβs how to tell them apart. π

Pink background, white textbox. Yellow icons of a pen and thought bubble in adjacent corners. Heading in teal: Supporting your child on results day. Body text: 1. Celebrate the child, no matter the results Regardless of what the result is, it took years of hard work to get to this point, so ensure your child feels celebrated. 2. Talk things through in advance. Encourage your child to speak openly about their hopes and fears for the day and their future, then start to create a plan together. 3. Avoid comparisons with others. Young people already compare themselves to their peers too often. Focus on their own accomplishments and avoid comparing them to family or friends. 4. Evaluate all the options together. Encourage them to think through the options carefully and not to rush to decide. Speaking to friends and teachers will provide perspective. 5. Allow them to take their time. Whether itβs processing the results, planning the next steps, or moving forward, itβs a significant day that comes with many emotions - let your child feel them in their own way.
Young people across the country will be getting their exam results today.
We know results day can be a stressful time for both teenagers and parents.
Weβve compiled a list of tips to help you support your child this results day π
