- I had Panic Attacks Every Night at Stanford & Columbia
From 5th year of my PhD program at Columbia, to my 2nd year as an Assistant Professor at Stanford, I had debilitating panic attacks every night.
Let's have an honest discussion about mental health in academia.

Let's keep in mind that adjuncts have it much worse. And if they're not perfect, they get fired - tremendous pressure. And no benefits or support. I hope you'll use your tenure to improve this situation.
The courage to be this vulnerable and honest is inspiring, insightful, and so very appreciated. Your channel is brilliant, and this video is going to make a difference for so many people in academia and beyond.
Thank you for sharing this Tom, it helps a lot. I felt so alone as a PhD student struggling with mental health issues
Thank you so much for sharing such a personal story! As a 5th year PhD student, I can totally resonate with the pressure and anxiety part.
I so appreciate and admire your honesty and willingness to be vulnerable. That is absolutely a necessary step if we are to revolutionize academic culture as you - and I, a fellow FirstGen Prof - desire. I am on board with this 100%. I've just shared this video with a few colleagues and I want to thank you for making this video and being so candid. Also, as you know, I was at that Critical Han Studies conference and had *no* idea you were struggling with anxiety and panic attacks then. I thought you were a shining star and I *loved* that conference! You had clearly done so much to internalize all the pain.
I really appreciate your courage and sharing your experience with us. I've also had similar issues of mental health (FYI, I'm a Ph.D. student), and this really gives me consolation. Thank you so much.
Thank you for sharing Professor Mullaney.
I think the scary thing is to realize that one is not in control. It is very difficult to let the dragon fly…
30:11 how tf does the line "research really matters to me" open the floodgates of tears?
I had to stop the video at this mark. This video is very eye opening on more than one front.
What you're sharing gives me hope that I'll be okay. I guess I wanted to let you know that you're making a big big difference with this 37m 30s share.
I just finished the video. I did not want the video to end!
Thank you for helping to normalize these conversations.
I so appreciated hearing this today as a current grad student. Thank you for sharing.
Hi Tom! Thank you x infinity for normalizing talking about mental health. Yes to opening up this conversation and pointing students (and colleagues) toward resources. I remember some of those Brooklyn/SF early years. I was in it, too, especially during my graduate program. I did not realize it. Applause for opening up about it!
You did? Thank you for speaking out, it means a lot. I think I have panic attacks because I’m such a failure and coward. My depression has been one of the greatest challenge in my academic life, I’m aware of the fact that many of my colleagues are suffering from poor mental health conditions, therefore, I punish myself more because I couldn’t function as well as they could.
I dropped out due to the panic attacks
This is powerful, thank you for opening up about this. You're exactly right that there is too much information piled on at the beginning orientation.
Have you read Eckhart Tolle's "The Power of Now"?
Thank you for sharing this, I am in my first year of grad and this really means a lot. Proud of you for being attack free and thank you for the strength in sharing this
Thank you for sharing this! This made me realise the importance of looking after myself while working on my career plan. Thank you.
Truly courageous. W y a the best. You are truly helping.... How is the situation now are you taking any medication or proper help from the correct authorities r r you still worrying about it...
Thank you for sharing. I had a very similar experience, terrible chest pain while writing an application and I was rushed to the ER.
I'm so sorry to hear you went through this, too. It's hard to talk about, I know.
Relief! Thank you!
Powerful Testimony. Thank you for sharing with transparency. You are brave. This video helped me.💛🥲
