I Have Anxiety
It's mostly about sound.
If I can hear someone stomping around.
Or that hint of tension or anger in a person's voice, that tone, that makes me wonder if we're about to fight. Yelling doesn't bother me nearly as much as that.
Car horns.
Glass shattering.
Thunder.
Door slam.
Sometimes it's just that a person is speaking or laughing excessively loud, and I become instantly on edge. Why the need to draw so much attention to your location?
