Anxiety is not taken seriously by most and cannot be truly understood when explained.
For everyone, how they feel and react is up to them. Some people can talk themselves out of it, some people curl up on a ball suffering physically.
I instantly feel my body tense up completely, my breathing gets shallow and soon enough it's hard to catch my breath. If things get really bad, I vomit and cry.
Anxiety is something I don't know how to control, don't know how to calm myself down. But I have an anthem, to raise my spirits when I'm feeling weak and incapable of overcoming this.
Fight Song - Rachel Platten
To her, the song is about her overcoming obstacles in life to get where she is today. To me, it's a song explaining what I feel like with anxiety and how determined I am to persevere and learn how to control it.
Whatever you're dealing with, find a song, a quote or even a person that understands the wrecking balls inside your brain. Scream it loud, let it out. And never, ever give up fighting.
