my most oppressive illness is severe anxiety. 

sometimes, especially late at night, i think of a hundred things a second and i start feeling not real, or like my brain doesnt work properly or im just barely functioning in society. i start getting thoughts of people locking me up for being violently out of control of my mind, or that im convincing myself of fake realities.

my coping methods rn are trying to fix my sleeping schedule, and putting on shows meant for casual watching ( safiya nygaard is my favourite atm ), as well as general things like healing exercise and breathing. it helps me feel normal and reminds me im still grounded and aware of myself.

but id really like to know if other people who only have anxiety or a handful of things feel this way - im really sick of the fear and it would be so comforting to know others feel the same, or get some new coping methods!
