Welcome to my Sleeping Chaos! 😴😵 Handcrafted Alternative Hoodie

Welcome to my Sleeping Chaos! 😴😵 Handcrafted Alternative Hoodie

Extra-deep hood. Overlength sleeves. Oversized, loose cut. Scarf-style collar. Soft cotton + polyester. This piece was designed with people struggling with social anxiety in mind. 🖤



What is social anxiety? 👀 It’s an intense, persistent fear of being judged, embarrassed, or humiliated in social situations—something that can interfere with daily life. Hood up, cap on, mask covering my face, loud music blasting in my headphones—that was me a year ago. Even now, I’m still fighting to step outside without them. It’s getting better, little by little.



I created Sleeping Chaos from A to Z—drawing, designing, pattern-making, sewing, and hand-painting. 🪡

This handcrafted piece represents two years of struggling almost every night with panic attacks after a traumatic event. Dreams, nightmares—it didn’t matter. I woke up in fear and tears, always followed by panic attacks. They felt so real—like I could touch, smell, or hear everything in them. When I woke up, I didn’t know where I was. My body would go straight into panic. So this creation is very close to my heart. It carries my scars, but it also represents my efforts to cope—and to slowly succeed. 😃

At some point, the fear didn’t disappear, but the tears did. I forced myself not to cry because it only made it worse. In my despair, I was lucky enough to have a friend who knew what to do and could pull me out of it.



For those who have never experienced one, a panic attack feels like a heart attack without physically having one. I couldn’t breathe, my chest hurt, and the only way to calm down was to fully wake up. Every night. 😰

Here’s what helped me cope: ✮ Wake up fully before trying to sleep again, as falling back asleep too fast can make it worse. I learned that the hard way.
✮ Ground yourself: name 5 things you see, touch, and/or smell. Break the panic with your senses.
✮ If you’re alone, hug yourself. Remind yourself: You are safe. It was just a dream/nightmare. Everything is okay.
✮ Drink water—it helps.
✮ Move a little, breathe, walk around. Avoid screens. You sadly have to go through it to get out of it.


Through my fashion brand, I want to raise awareness and give comfort to people struggling with mental health—just like I do. If you know someone dealing with panic attacks, trauma, depression, or social anxiety, please be there for them. You can’t imagine how much just one person caring can impact and change everything.
