If you could describe your anxiety in one word, what would it be?

[CMF]

There is a thread under Depression just like this so I thought why not start an anxiety one?

My word is:

Attacking

[Trishizle]

Panic

[Cornstarch]

Persuasive

[1113]

hyperstimulation

[Livinia09]

Crippling

Although, I will add (if I can!) that it brings me a sense of nostalgia and almost comfort at the moment. After having suffered with depression for nearly a year now, anxiety is familiar to me, it makes me feel again.

Formidable.

Overwhelming

[MsPurple]

Reoccurring

I have times when I am not too anxious, where I am normal I guess for someone with GAD. Then I will get hit out of the blue for no reason with really bad anxiety for a whole day. Kinda sucks. But I have found some strategies that help me deal with the day and to get through it as good as possible

GONE!!!
