Anxiety- A Poem

DancerDancer Community Champion Posts: 7,788 Master Poster
in Health & Wellbeing
Thoughts race through my mind
Feeling anxious
Panicking
Crying 
Silently 
Or out loud
Anxiety is no joke
Not knowing what to do
Or who to tell
I can't cope
Staying silent
Staying hidden
I want to be alone
But nobody understands 
Anxiety can't be seen
But that doesn't mean that it doesn't exist
It is in your mind
It can be felt.

"The way that I have found the light in my life is through the expressive arts because I know that I will be accepted for the way I am." ~ Me
"I'm going to get strong again and see you soon. " ~ Anonymous

    Thank you for being so kind and understanding. Today my anxiety got triggered during dance when I had to perform my dance piece to the class. And also before we started doing our pieces we were discussing what we thought the theme was about. The teacher deliberately picked on me to speak about it. I wanted the ground to swallow me.
