Anxiety isn’t always a panic attack or an obvious feeling of fear.
Sometimes it sounds like:
“What if I mess this up?”
“I should be handling this better.”
“Everyone else seems to have it figured out.”
“If I stop worrying, something bad might happen.”
Anxiety has a way of turning uncertainty into danger and self-doubt into something that feels like fact.
Learning to recognize the anxious voice is an important first step. You don’t have to believe every thought your anxiety gives you.
