Having an anxiety attack is like...

having an anxiety attack is like being trapped in a room without air.

it's like being on the run from a wolf that's trying to get you but you know you're not fast enough or strong enough or brave enough or good enough.

having an anxiety attack is like being sorrounded by so many people but feeling alone inside and feeling everything all at once and not wanting anyone close to you come actually - close to you.

it's like swimming swimming swimming in an ocean full of waves, knowing there isn't an island anywhere that will save you.

having an anxiety attack is haunting, it's exhausting, it's tiring, it's just too much.

knowing you could be able to escape but not knowing how.

knowing you could live a happy life without anxiety or the angst of becoming anxiety or the thought of being in a situation that could cause you anxiety.

having anxiety makes you feel like you're alone. you think nobody understands you and you'll never get out of that deep dark hole you fall into each and every time, you can't breathe and cry and cry and cry and know it's there again. the anxiety is back again. but that's not the truth. there's so many people on this planet earth that have anxiey. so many people understand what you feel. you are not alone. you are loved. you are worth it.
