It happens in an instant with practically no warning at all. A few seconds ago, you were fine, and now your world feels like it's been flipped upside down, but the real kicker is, absolutely nothing has changed. Life is the exact same. The difference is, you're in a constant cycle of over-thinking everything to the point where nothing seems as it is, and you live in constant fear of the worst coming true. The smallest problems in life are blown entirely out of proportion and made into something bigger than life.
It feels like you're walking around with a weight on your shoulders of this unsettling feeling of just about everything going wrong. It's hard to tell what's real and what your anxiety is controlling. It feels like your heart is going to pound out of your chest. Your mind races a mile a minute and every possible scenario of something going wrong crosses your mind. Life occurs around you in a blur because you're not actually living. Fear cripples you and prevents you from enjoying things or living in the moment.

You're living with anxiety, and you have nothing to be ashamed of.
