Living with Anxiety

Using your experiences with anxiety to help others

When you ask for a small favor to make you more comfortable (like holding your hand) and people act like it’s a big hassle

Feeling like you’re missing out on life because you’re too scared

Picking apart every single thing you said after every conversation

Burying your face in your phone, because conversations and eye contact are both terrifying

When you try one of those relaxation exercises and it just makes you more stressed

Playing with your hair helps calm you down but annoys everyone around you

When nobody laughs at your joke and you decide to never speak again

Getting hit on or asked out and assuming they’re making fun of you

Being very, very aware of how you’re walking, your body language, your facial expressions, etc.
