INSANE: Jamie laing opens up about his lowest point and how he recovered | Rare Historical Photos

Jamie Laing

Reality star Jamie Laing revealed his first panic attack 14 years ago was his "lowest point" mentally, leading to severe anxiety.
He emphasises the importance of men discussing mental health, recalling his feelings of loneliness and isolation during his initial panic attack.
Laing encourages men to open up to friends, citing his own experience of finding relief after confiding in a friend and forming a supportive WhatsApp group.
He recently completed an ultramarathon for Comic Relief, raising over £2 million, and highlighted the mental challenges of the run, using it as a metaphor for overcoming mental health struggles.
Laing advocates for vulnerability and open communication, emphasising acceptance, talking about feelings, and exercise as key steps towards better mental well-being.
