Look, I don’t want to say that I “have anxiety,” because I don’t really know what that means.
What I WILL say is that I’m constantly worried about absolutely everything and that worry is always turning to anger and that anger back to worry and I self-medicate in order to escape that cycle enough to rest and carry on with life.
Or wait. Is that just having anxiety?

11. Just panicking
I promise you my brain works, just not particularly well.

10. Practice makes perfect
I never heard or registered any other part of the book or the knowledge it contained but it was well worth it.
In elementary school when we would have read out loud to the class from the textbook I would literally count the kids in front of me and figure out what section I was reading so I could practice it before it got to my turn & I think that’s where my anxiety started.

We need to take this to the next level, you and me.

8. Something’s off
It’s like having an alarm for just nothing in particular.

7. Isolation
It’s not you, it is most definitely me.

6. Join the black parade
He said son when
You grow up
Could you be…
my dog and I both have anxiety so whenever I'm pacing my apartment she follows me around like we're marching in a mental illness pride parade

5. Social battery drain
And then you just can’t possibly get out of there fast enough.
This actually happens. Like the moment you realize you're out with people and you don't wanna be there anymore https://t.co/2gDVmv9Fgs

I’m gonna be on my deathbed thinking about some petty crap I pulled when I was like 25, I promise you that.
