Every Moment

Living with Anxiety

By Isabella GuzmanPublished 8 years ago • 1 min read

30 seconds...

Waiting...

2 minutes...

Waiting...

3 minutes...

Waiting...

4 minutes...

Waiting...

30 minutes...

Waiting...

An hour...

Waiting...

3 hours...

Waiting... waiting... waiting....

Every second... every minute... every hour... spent waiting.

Staring at my phone. Trying to stay busy. Trying to distract myself. Trying to think positive. Trying to keep remembering "He loves me..."

Trying... Trying... Trying...

Every second... every minute... every hour... spent trying.

Thinking about our future. Thinking about our past. Thinking about what he is thinking about. Thinking about the worst outcome. Thinking about the best outcome.

Thinking... Thinking... Thinking....

Every second... every minute... every hour... spent thinking.

Wondering what more I can do. Wondering what's going on in his head. Wondering if I'm enough... Wondering how this will all turn out.

Wondering... Wondering... Wondering...

Every second... every minute... every hour... spent wondering.

Anxiety....

Every second...

Every minute...

Every hour...

Every moment...

Waiting until everything is good again...

Trying to push through...

Thinking positive...

Wondering what the future holds...

Refusing to give up...

Watching this video really helped me. It inspired me to open up about my personal issues and anxiety.
