Anxiety
Unpleasant thoughts creeping in to you. Insecurity, doubts, over-thinking everything, replaying over and over dialogs, rephrasing sentences, expressing different emotions, maybe should I have reacted another way?
With every new interaction a new one thought increases and old ones are moldering away and eating us inside, gripping their clutches deeper.
No one knows what’s happening behind a composed face. No one hears this scream within.
“Sometimes you climb out of bed in the morning and you think, I’m not going to make it, but you laugh inside - remembering all the times you’ve felt that way.”
“Nobody can save you but yourself - and you’re worth saving.
It’s a war not easily won but if anything is worth winning
- this is it.”
