A great post. I think explaining what it’s actually like to have anxiety, from your perspective, provides others with great insight.
I also have anxiety and I get anxious often usually in social settings. Finding a outlet like blogging has done wonders to push me outside of my comfy comfort zone.
Thanks for showing “anxiety” is a real thing, so many people don’t understand what it is and just brush it under the carpet.
