The worst part about being a functional person with anxiety is that everyone always thinks you’re fine because you hide it well but on the inside it’s like WW3 within your brain.

I might be laying still in bed but really my body feels like it’s running a marathon

I feel ya.I had a pharmacist tell me post code that I’m always so calm and collected. If they only knew what was happening under the surface 🤦🏻♀️

And it takes so. much. energy. to keep that anxiety hidden, which makes it hard to keep functioning, but we’re so good at faking being okay that somehow we keep going.

I hide my anxiety through routines and bland, predictable food. My coworkers actually encourage me to do things that make my anxiety better and if some new mocks my spaghettios, my coworkers pull them aside. Stuff like this keeps the job from overwhelming my senses.

What I hide very well is my insecurity. People constantly approach me with this: that I show a lot of self-confidence, sometimes even arrogance ... But inside here is a constant battle with self-depreciation and anxiety...

I remember when I had panic attacks and anxiety, people used to say how bad can it be you’re at College or your living your normal life it can’t be that bad. My strength doesn’t mean it’s a cake walk. I am sorry you have to go through it but your amazing :)
