12 Times Your Anxiety Betrayed You

1. When you're about to fall asleep and then your anxiety makes you think of everything you've ever done wrong.

Then you begin to get anxious about the hours you have left to sleep before you have to be awake.

2. When you have to go to the bathroom in class but your anxiety reminds you that everyone's going to look at you when you stand up.

Guess I'm just going to hold it in until class is over.

3. When someone tells you they need to talk to you and your anxiety comes up with every bad scenario of what it could be.

Why can't you just text or call me to tell me it now?

4. When you hear a noise in your house and your anxiety tells you that you're about to die.

It's probably an axe murderer. Good thing you didn't make your will.

5. When it's your turn to order food, but you completely forget how to speak.

I'll have the uh.......ummmmm......uh.....chi.....cken and fries?

6. When you think you have the right answer to a question, then your anxiety tells you you're wrong.

Then someone says the answer you were going to say...and it was correct.

7. When you meet someone new, but your anxiety tells you that they hate you.

Potential new friend? Nope, they hate you.

8. When you come up with a good joke, but your anxiety tells you that it's not funny.

Cause you'll probably tell the punch line wrong and everyone will think you're stupid.

9. When you actually want to go out, but your anxiety tells you that the night is going to go wrong.

You'll probably lose your friends...and your wallet...and die.

10. When you have to call to order food rather than order online and your anxiety puts you into panic mode.

Guess I'm going to starve to death because I can't talk on the phone.

11. When you want to participate in group discussion but your anxiety tells you that would be annoying.

And no one would even want to listen to what you have to say.

12. When you text someone and they don't answer right away and your anxiety tells you that they're mad at you.

You might as well just throw your phone away and never text anyone again.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
