I put a trigger because there are one or two lines where I allude to self destruction.

Anxiety is so consuming
It draws you in and tears your life apart
You invent scenarios in your head
Scenarios where you did something wrong
You start obsessing
Then the palpitations start
It feels like the world is ending
The attacks take over and they last for hours
The fear and pain you feel is heartrending
How will you survive?
Terror it is all consuming
This might be worse than the nights of endless depression
At least those nights you knew you'd find peace
Nights with anxiety are uncertain
Anxiety for some can cause lots of self destruction
Is there anyone who can save us?

Can really relate to this. I like how you connected the thoughts (scenarios) to the physical feelings too. Thanks for sharing :)

This was lovely. And you can feel a lot of emotion in it. Hugs.

I can definitely relate. This is really good!

This is really well written and has a lot of powerful emotions. I can relate to your poem on anxiety.

Thank you for sharing, Jenna. :hug:
