Kendall Jenner has opened up about the panic attacks she deals with in a teaser for a four-part series on mental health with Vogue.

The model, 25, revealed that she first started to experience panic attacks a few years ago, which would wake her up in the night.

Speaking in a teaser clip for the series, Kendall revealed: ‘Two or three years ago I genuinely started having very, very bad panic attacks.

‘I was having frights in the middle of my sleep, literally what felt like heart palpitations. I couldn’t breathe. I was pretty bad.’

Dr Curley Bonds, Chief Medical Office for LA County, who was one of the people Kendall interviewed for the series, concurred, adding: ‘The more people that come out and talk about their anxiety, the more the public is aware that this is a real thing.’

Vogue added: ‘According to the CDC, reports of anxiety more than tripled at the height of the Covid-19 pandemic, fuelling a mental health crisis that persists even as vaccination rolls out across the world.
