Fear is one of the most important emotions in life. It alerts us to real danger… or to imaginary situations that feel real. Often that fear can negatively affect emotional wellbeing, interpersonal relationships, and our ability to function in daily life.

Forced migration doesn’t just mean leaving a country. It means uprooting, grief, confusion, uncertainty… and intense emotions that manifest differently in each person. How do we manage them?

🧠 In this “Soporte Entre Pares” (Peer Support) session, we talk about panic attacks and anxiety crises with psychologist Liliana Torella.

Soporte Entre Pares = Active Listening, Emotional Containment, and Community Building.
Seeking help is not weakness — it is self-care.
