Marcelo Serrado reports panic attack on flight this Friday (25): ‘Terrible hours’

Marcelo Serrado used social media to alert his followers about the importance of seeking medical help when the first signs of mental exhaustion appear.

He gave as an example the anxiety and panic attacks he experienced two years ago, and said that the situation repeated itself this Friday, during an international flight.

The actor said that the flight was during the day and, as soon as the plane door closed, he had “a snap” that something was going to happen. He was flying with his family for a vacation trip ‘after many years’, but his relatives were sitting in seats at the front of the aircraft.

The person who helped him was the passenger in the next seat. “There was a guy, Ricardo, in white, I thought it was a sign. He talked to me for hours during the flight. It calmed me down. All we need at this moment is to be welcomed.”

Marcelo revealed that he had an anxiety and panic attack in 2020 and was medicated for two years. Recently, he said that he uses Cannabis in his treatment.

In addition to the long conversation with Ricardo during the flight, he remembers that he spent four hours with himself, took some medicine and managed to calm down completely. “I think I can help other people with this. It’s been a terrible time. But I’m okay.”

The importance of alertness and venting were also mentioned by the actor. “It’s very important for me to say this because I know that a lot of people go through this. I had panic yesterday (Saturday), with burnout because of too much work, and anxiety syndrome. All three things together, a combo.”

“People tell you: ‘Wow, Marcelo Serrado has a career, a great life. Why did you have that?’ You don’t choose, right? It’s something that triggers you and you have to get treated, see a doctor. I got treated and yesterday, on that plane, I had a crack inside,” he said.
