It’s like you’re drowning, but you can breathe.

Your drowning in the thoughts of overthinking

The thoughts of panic

You’re drowning in every possible outcome your mind thinks of

 

Anxiety feels like that moment you know when your chair tips over a little bit

And you get that rush of panic throughout your body

That rapid heartbeat? Anxiety feels like that constantly

 

Anxiety is uncontrollable

It can mess up any plan you have

And the thing is

With anxiety

You want  to do things

But there's like a wall in between you and your goal.

 

I can’t raise my hand in class

If i get called on i shake, and for a while i thought that was normal,

i thought i was normal

But when everytime i had presentation i got panic attacks i realized there may be something wrong after all.

 

I have anxiety

But i’m not my anxiety

I’m simply a human with another adjective to describe me

But my anxiety is in me

But i’m not my anxiety.
