Last season I was too busy to make arrangements for my own how – I need to do that more often next year.

My best advice on how not to panic is to disrupt spiralling thoughts. Maybe that means reaching out to a friend who can remind you that you are capable, maybe it means getting some fresh air. No matter what happens, even if it is not ok, it will pass.
