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

All-consuming. I’m so tired.

The word I would have to describe my anxiety with would be persistent. 

When I wake up, it hits immediately. It then proceeds to visit multiple times throughout the day.
