I Lost 20 Pounds In Panic Hell… Bye Bye Panic Pulled Me Out Fast (Jane’s Recovery Story)

Stress has a way of sneaking up on you, especially when you’re busy trying to be the cool mom, holding it all together while life keeps piling on.

Jane Garden was raising three teens, running a business, handling a home renovation... Then came COVID, illness, and one strange night at an art gallery that tipped everything over.

The smell of marijuana in the air didn’t seem like a big deal at first, but it was the moment her body decided it had had enough. A Globus sensation hit — suddenly, she couldn’t swallow, and that’s when her panic spiral began.

For the next few months, Jane experienced almost all of the symptoms we usually associate with anxiety: racing heart, intrusive thoughts, insomnia, and digestive issues so bad they took 20 pounds off in a few weeks.

Doctors, therapists, nutritionists, medications — you name it, she tried it. But nothing really worked until she found Bye Bye Panic.

The turning point — and the real change — for Jane wasn’t anything she did. It was that she finally understood. She learned about the nervous system and how it functions. So instead of fearing and avoiding the symptoms, she learned how to respond.

Today, she’s back to traveling, working, and doing it all — but this time, anxiety doesn’t control her. In this episode, Mirka from Bye Bye Panic talks with Jane about her recovery journey, the mindset shifts that made the difference, and how she reclaimed her life.

Tune in for the full story.
