Every sunrise and every sunset
Anxiety never leaves me alone
I wake up during the night
I feel tired the next morning
I’m grumpy for not getting enough sleep
And I wonder if anxiety will ever stop

When I’m in a group, I may appear to be moody
Even when I’m not
I feel like nobody understands me
Everywhere I go, no matter where I am,
I feel like I’m being watched

My eyes gaze across trying to spot an
escape route from my anxiety,
but theres no use
As I am just running away from myself

My head makes up scenarios constantly
Day and night
When I try to verbalise when my head is saying,
it comes out wrong,
Instead frustration in my voice comes out instead

I am fighting my inner demon – and winning
I am taking back control of my life
Turning that negative thought into a positive and productive one
It wasn’t easy, but its worth it.

Anxiety doesnt control your life, take back control, be strong, be happy, be positive, be vocal, because that is the number 1 ingredient that tackles anxiety.
