I'm really feeling sorry for Helen Flanagan, who plays Corrie's Rosie Webster. She's admitted, via twitter, that she has been suffering from panic attacks on the Coronation Street set. I've also suffered from panic attacks and know how distressing they can be, so my best wishes goes to her.
On twitter, Helen says: “I have been experiencing panic attacks for quite a while now outside of work. However this was the first time I experienced them at work. It hasn’t been very pleasant but I’m a strong girl and am getting them under control.”
Yes, as a fellow panic attack sufferer who has got them under control (kind of!) I too offer my support to Helen and applaud her for speaking out about this very common but often hidden problem.. Good luck to her.
