In her new memoir, the former supermodel opens up about 'debilitating' panic attacks — and why it's possible to live a 'very joyful, very anxious life.'
"The world around me ceased to exist as I knew it," she wrote in the book and said that she"rocked and mooed" trying to hold herself together.
In the three years since Ocasek's death, Porizkova said that she hasn't necessarily made peace with it, but therapy has helped her find forgiveness, even if she still struggles with"major trust issues." Porizkova told TODAY that she went on medication to help curb her symptoms after the anxiety became debilitating.
"I do believe that white-knuckling things and facing your fears is what builds courage," she said. For Porizkova, part of facing her fears is being prepared for everything.
