The Importance of Self-Care
According to HRD-AeroSystems, When the body doesn’t have enough oxygen, a condition known as hypoxia can set in. Hypoxia can cause symptoms such as confusion, lightheadedness, body issues, or crazy euphoria. The condition sets in quickly when oxygen levels are low. You have about 30 seconds to don an oxygen mask before the symptoms set in. This short window is why it’s so important that your airline crew makes sure parents put on their oxygen masks before helping children.

- You feel drained.
- You struggle to sleep or sleep too much
- You feel sad, angry, irritable or you feel alone.
- Brain fog rolls in.
- You may be more likely to get sick.
