Jamie Kenna, a star of Coronation Street, has been open and honest about his struggle with depression and panic attacks.
In a recent appearance on Lorraine, the actor who is now portraying Phill Whittaker in the ITV soap opera discussed the recent episodes in which Phill and Fiz (Jennie McAlpine) got married as well as his mental health issues.
Panic attacks, which occur when your body is unable to handle an overwhelming circumstance, are one thing Jamie experiences.
Jamie had his first panic attack when in the middle of the ocean, which is often when they occur because you had started hyperventilating.
The actor told The Mirror, “I’d just swum the Channel three months prior and spent five and a half hours swimming Windermere, but I pushed my luck.”
I ventured too far out into the Channel because the sea was too large and really cold. I experienced my first panic episode, which I did while swimming in the middle of the ocean. It was a really significant, exposing moment for me as I was 200 meters away.
Jamie has established a sizable social media presence and wants to take advantage of his capacity to contact thousands of people now that he has settled into life on Corrie.
He continued, “I want to use my platform to help people.”
I don’t hesitate to turn around and express my fear or worry. When you repeat it aloud, it immediately helps to calm you down.In Coronation Street, Phill recently experienced heartbreak as Fiz said she no longer loves him. Unaware that Fiz and Tyrone (Alan Halsall) have reconciled, Phill recently embarrassed himself in an effort to win Fiz back.He played Fiz’s favorite love songs when he came outside the factory, but when he held up the lyrics, he jumbled them, which the Underworld staff found hilarious.
