anxiety
A look at anxiety in its many forms and manifestations; what is the nature of this specific pattern of extreme fear and worry?
Anxious
I started seeing a counselor when I was still in high school. However, I didn't start getting panic attacks until the late '90's. They snuck up on me. At first I didn’t know what they were. I was depressed at first. The anxiety came later. By 2000, I knew I was having panic attacks. I was misdiagnosed as bipolar, back then.

Living with Anxiety Long-Term Is Like Living in an Apocalypse. Top Story - July 2019.
My all-time favourite film is The Terminator. I watched it again on the weekend and it set my mind thinking. Why are all my favourite films/video games on the theme of survival or apocalyptic destruction? Why do I find it so hard to find a comedy programme that I don’t find banal and that can really entertain me? Why do the comedies I like always seem to be tinged with at least a hint of disaster?

It Takes One Important Decision
It has been months since I wanted to start this journey by putting my words to use by hopefully inspiring or helping others with anxiety, and furthermore, giving myself a platform to express my feelings. I want to assist in my own recovery from this on-going whirlwind of thoughts and feelings that runs ever so rapidly through my head without any control from myself. It has been a while because I have fallen in love.

The Ugly Feeling of Anxiety
Oh that horrible feeling of anxiety. I know it all too well. We have all experienced anxiety at some time as it is a normal response to stresses in life. My last bout of anxiety landed me in the ER with heart palpitations and very high blood pressure.

Am I the only one who went they get sick, no matter what the illness is, their mind turns against them? Because you are stuck doing nothing but healing, your brain wonders due to not having anything to distract it other than crappy TV or films. And if you have an anxious brain like mine, your brain can go to some dark places.

Living With Anxiety
There was something bittersweet about figuring out that I had an anxiety disorder. My entire life I always felt a little different. Even as a child, I would wonder what was wrong with me. How come I always felt like an outcast? Better yet.... how come I always felt nervous about absolutely everything I did?
