🤯 When Anxiety Shows Up in the Body

isn’t just in the mind. It can manifest physically - as a racing heart, tight chest, fatigue, or even dizziness. If you’ve ever felt these sensations without knowing why, your body might be signalling beneath the surface.

We believe that healing starts with awareness. In our latest blog by Dr Sean David, we explore how anxiety affects your body, why physical symptoms appear, and what you can do to feel more in control again.

🧠💓 Because your mental health and physical wellbeing are deeply connected - and both deserve care.

Why children can’t wait. 💬👧👦

Every child deserves a safe, nurturing space to grow - in heart, mind and body.

Last week (25 July 2025), our team at Promises Healthcare joined a powerful conversation at the EveryChild.SG inaugural forum, where educators, psychologists, parents and policymakers came together with one goal: to build a Singapore where child well-being comes first.

🧠 Dr Adrian Loh, our Senior Consultant Psychiatrist, shared on the urgent mental health needs among children and youth.

👩‍🏫 June Fong, our Senior Psychologist, and Senior Clinical Psychologist Sook Fern Mok contributed during interactive sessions on how families and professionals can co-create supportive systems for children in today’s demanding world.

From academic stress to social media pressure, the challenges kids face are growing. But so is the movement to protect them. 💛

We’re proud to be part of this collective force for change.

Let’s champion a future where every child flourishes.

What’s your curse?
For many in Singapore, it’s this:

👉 Achieving everything… while losing yourself inside.

We chase success, meet expectations, stay productive
- but at night, it’s the silence that hurts.
The anxiety. The burnout. The loneliness we don’t talk about.

📊 68% of us feel this stress weekly.
But 3 out of 4 who struggle? They never reach out.

It’s time we did.
You’re not weak. You’re human.
And you don’t have to carry this alone.

💬 Talk to us. We’re here, for you.

🚨 Not all drugs are the same – and treating them as such may be doing more harm than good.

In his latest commentary, Promises Healthcare Psychotherapist and Addiction Specialist, Andrew da Roza, responds to the recent CNA report on “K-Pods”; on stigma and public health concerns.

💡 Addiction is a health issue, not a moral failing.
📊 M**h use among Singaporean youths is surging – the urgent need for targeted intervention.
📣 It’s time for facts over fear, compassion over condemnation.

👉 Read his full piece, “The Dangers of Conflating Drug Use: A Call for Clarity in Singapore’s Addiction Response”: https://promises.com.sg/blog/andrew-da-roza-kpods/

📢 Let’s move beyond fear and judgment, and towards evidence, empathy and effective solutions.
