I Have Anxiety

Do you think "I have anxiety" is thrown around too much these days?

While I'm not invalidating these people's feelings, severe anxiety is really, really nasty, I've had it for years, medicated on and off. I suppose it's like someone saying "I'm depressed" when in fact they're just having a bad day. It doesn't bother me too much, I just think that sometimes greater care should be taken when defining a feeling or state of mind. 🤷

I think anxiety affects people in ways they aren’t willing to admit.

They don’t know it’s the fear driving them to be mean or make irrational decisions.
