The Anxiety Sucks Thread!

Screw you anxiety *shakes fist in the air*

You are mean and inconsiderate. Erratic and I hate you! *kick kick kick* *throws rocks*

If anyone wants to beat up anxiety with me, feel free to join in and tell it to ?!#* off :)

I love how it "protects you" when you don't need it. Thanks body. Appreciate that. Everything has been over for a while. There is no more threat. I can stop shaking now.

I'm assuming asterisks, etc are ok in this thread? If not, ignore my post!

D@mn you, anxiety! I want to kick you in the family jewels and make you drop to your knees in pain! I hope I do some damage as you don't deserve kids! (Sorry, continuing with the metaphor lol).

Really, I think I shall keep this as a visual. It's making me laugh!

Really, in spite of my frequent protestations to the contrary, I was quite ok about living alone, and would not have welcomed anxiety into my house at all, even had I known it was coming.

This past week, it has apparently decided it's happy here, and has converted its status from occasional drop-in visitor to permanent, non-rent-paying boarder. I'm not happy. Actually, if I thought I could sneak out without it noticing, I would move out and leave it to live here in my house to its heart's content.

But apparently it's me, and not my house, that it likes, and where I go, it somewhat co-dependently follows right now.

I am happy being single, really. Please, please file for divorce, because I don't love you and never will, and it's you, it's not me.

In the same situation here. I thought I was doing fine at my new place, but as always, somebody starts making noise (in this case the neighbor/landlord who owns a shed next to my appartment) and the panic creeps up on me. I can't be myself when somebody's sounds are in my environment -I'm doomed to feel like they are invading my whole existence and I won't ever have "myself to myself". Which is where the anxiety comes in, under the pretext of "protecting me".

So I go crazy, I scream and kick stuff around just to get the freaking presence of that dude and his noise of my head... out of my life. This same exact story repeats itself in every single house or room I inhabit. It's horribly predictable. I suposse I'll spend my whole life moving from place to place and running from the anxiety... :mad:

Anxiety, anxiety, you're such a fibber!
You make me feel like there is mud in my liver.
No matter what I do, you stick to me like glue
And keep me from remembering who I am.

This is great you guys. Keep it going.

If anxiety were an actual person I would call 911 on it and report it to the authorities. The torment it serves up should be illegal.

I would claim self defense and beat it to death with a tire iron.

Anxiety is like having a lying, cheating crackhead that lives in your brain. You can't believe a damn thing it says, but it screams and whines so loudly, you can't just ignore it and have to break down and give it its fix. You run around checking locks on the doors and windows, peeping out the blinds, and lying awake worrying that your house will be sucked up by a sinkhole or sharknado.

You think it would have OD'd by now. Instead it eats all your Doritos and comes back for more. Worst.Houseguest.Ever!

That's so exactly it I want to like your post twice. I hate anxiety. And hypervigilance.

I second that! That's a pretty awesome description!!

 

[EvenStrongerNow]

Anxiety, I hate how you get to have the first word each day before I even have a chance to open my eyes, or before I'm even cognizant of being conscious. You have thunk me out of the day before I even get out of bed. Shame on you!!

 

[EvenStrongerNow]

Anything you want to say to anxiety today?

Anxiety, screw you! I hate how you cause me to expect danger around every corner. How you talk me out of a job before I even apply for it!!
