Journey of Anti-Anxiety
Anxiety looks different for everyone. It can mean shutting yourself off from the world because everything feels like too much. It can look like talking less out of fear of judgment, replaying your words long after a conversation ends, or overthinking a simple exchange until it feels heavy and complicated.

I Was Never Highly Functional. Content Warning.
The Myth of Being “Normal” I would like you to understand that highly functional individuals of any kind don’t exist. I couldn’t look people in the eyes when I was a child.
