A dark cloud watching over you.

I’ve written recently on anxiety but recently thought I should explain in depth exactly how it feels because it’s only explained as;
‘A worry or fear, such as a fast heart rate’

But, reality is it’s so much more than that...


Anxiety is..

The dark cloud that follows over you everywhere you are and go, you know it’s there but you can’t physically see it which is probably why people assume you are ‘just wanting attention’
It’s the sudden shock of panic you get everytime you feel something touch you, or someone walk near/past you
It’s the loss of breath you suffer from when you re about to do something you’ve never done before
It’s the upset that you show on your face along with the bags under your eyes from the lack of sleep that anxiety is causing you..

Anxiety is something you try to forget about because that’s the only way people try to help
“Just don’t think about it, you’ll be fine!”

And the reality is, deep down you know you will and are

But;
anxiety stops you believing in yourself..
