  1. What is anxiety? Is it that feeling before the huge test right before Fall Break? Or how about that feeling you get whilst driving in the rain around others who aren’t as great and focused as you are? Or maybe it’s that feeling of not knowing what to expect. Whatever the case, we can all agree that it is one thing: a feeling.

  9. This is the reason I have writer’s block most of the time. I am worried about the outcome before I lay down the first paragraph. I should just let the anxiety go and just WRITE, but it’s not always that easy.

  10. Testing for the LSAT causes me a lot of anxiety. Not only anxiety the day of the test, but also in all of the months leading up to it. I constantly think about it because, unfortunately, the next few years of my life hang on it. Maybe even the rest of my life! Talk about stress.

  11. I felt sick every time I thought about what I had to do, yet I could not stop thinking about it. My anxiety could not overwhelm my terrible longing I had to get it over with.
    But was it really what I wanted?

  16. I feel like this a lot, anxiety.
    Pulsing through my veins and hollowing out my bones.
    It leaves me weak, it knocks the breath out of me and gives the impression of impending doom. Theres no way out, and there is certainly no way to stop it, you just have to let it flow through you.

  17. Anxiety builds whenever I think about getting a job, trying to interview, and what will happen if I don’t get a job soon. What’s next? The feeling of stress and intangible uncertainty is terrible!

  18. What to do? It’s the first day of school & I don’t know anyone? Will it matter? What will the teachers be like.
    That’s how it used to be. But is it so different now? The meeting starts in an hour & I’m not ready! How do I prepare for this big push? There’s the key: preparation!

  21. I think that’s what I’m feeling right now. this thing would stress anyone out and it makes me feel so tired just thinking about how stressed you could get. I really feel it is something that isn’t good for your health and you shouldn’t feel it of you can help it. except for the fact that such sights as this exist there are so many other reasons to get stressed out.

  22. she was looking at me kind of sideways, like a cruisy great white shark, but friendlier. only a little bit friendlier. i didn’t know what to think. i didn’t know what to say. i had another drink and i still didn’t know what to say.

  23. Deadlines give me a lot of anxiety. Will I make it. Will they like it. High anxiety – love that tune in the Mel Brooks film. We live with a lot of it all the time.

  25. worrry, desperation. It kills you, eats you up inside. you just dont have peace or any kind of joy. It makes life more stressful and doesn’t help you solve anything. You gain nothing out of being anxious, but you lose your rest, sometimes, sleep, sometimes your appetite. Anxiety is just not worth it. No one enjoys it but many are prone to it because they feel everything is beyond their control. If you trust in God, anxiety isn’t there because you are trusting everything into the hands of One who holds the universe in His hands!

  26. Heart palpitating, palms sweating. I don’t know what I’m doing any more. My eyes seem oddly unfocused; my ears seem to filter rubbish. I understand every word the professor says, but when I string them all together, they don’t make sense.

    Mel
  27. Anxiety? Well this certainly gives the timer some measure of importance; how much can I write in sixty seconds, of what quality of thought would it be and well, actually, where is this going? Meaning, where will it turn up? Honestly, writing under a time limit’s the worst kind of anxiety, gee.

  28. oh anxiety. i know what it’s like. i worry everyday, here in darfur about so many things. will i be kidnapped, will my friend be hurt. will life ever be the same for me when i leave this place? i have no idea, there are so many things that have been revealed here and so many i am yet to discover.

  31. anxiety crosses my mind at intersections
    unaware of which way to turn,
    so many options, so many opportunities
    for things to go amazingly
    for things to go dismally
    it seems to be that unknown element
    not being able to see the result of our choices until we have made them
    that seems to build the layers of anxiety
    does experience peel them off?
    or is it a permanent fixture
    something unshakable
    inescapable
    it’s hard to be stable when the littlest of things can bring you to your knees
    begging to some benevolent being to take pity
    and stop your mind from ticking
    ticking until detonation
    boom.

  32. Anxiety sucks.

  33. Anxiety attacks. What for really? It’s all in your head I say. Just a facade of fear attempting to take over your thought process…

  34. The anxiety in her voice was obvious. It had been five days since Annie had seen her home and she was now trapped in an airport south of Bangkok. More of a quiet, lonely airstrip than an airport, it was approximately 45 hours from where she had to be. And that mattered greatly. She couldn’t imagine

  35. Anxiety overtook her as she ran throught the days activities. She needed a trip to the beach very badly…

  40. Anxiety. Ansiedad. Ist das dasselbe? Und wie ist das deutsche Wort dafür? Sehnen nach etwas. Aber auch Angst vor etwas. Sehr große Angst. Etwas, was stärker ist als ich. Etwas, was ich unter keinen Umständen beherrschen kann. Etwas tief in mir drin. Eine Verbindung. Groß und bedrohlich.
