Anxiety
Is one of the most soul destroying disorders I think a human can have, self doubt, traumas the constant fear of what’s beyond the covers of the bed that keeps you safe. For lots of people with anxiety we have run a marathon of fear before 7am! What should I say today to people?why do i look fed up? Will people stare at my top? Will people be laughing at me and talking behind my back? What if I walk outside and a spaceship lands and I get taken away? What if a man with a gun is on the field and wants to shoot me? What if I see that person who attacked me when I was 12 or them bullies from my primary school? What if I get robbed and I cant call anyone because someone stile my phone? Or if I have a panic attack? What if people thing I am strange…nah I should just stay here in bed where I am safe
This may seem a little OTT to some but this may just be a smidgin of thoughts for others that make the knots in their tummy tight, their heart beat fast and hard so it feels like it’s going to explode, their fingers drowned with sweat as their body shakes from head to toe whilst everything around them become louder, smells stronger…hurts more!
Anxiety is hard and for those who try each day to beat it WELL DONE! For those who help someone with anxiety thank you for those who dont quite get why people are anxious maybe spend a little time one on one with that person and let them explain as they go what’s happening to them…no judgements Anxiety is REAL, it is LIFE STOPPING and it HURTS
Please be kind to people you never know what they are going through
