I feel although a lot of anxiety sufferers can discassociate with their anxiety and recognise it and still act and function normally and understand there surroundings and know there isn’t any threat.

With me, everything is a threat, walking about in general I feel like everyone is looking at me. It’s completely consuming, I lay at bed at night with anxiety, I can meditate but my heart rate is still up, I have a restless feeling. Speaking with people I’m not in the conversation, I’m analysing it. I can’t see how I’m coming across and just chill, I’m not in the moment. I can’t comprehend that everyone else isn’t feeling the same way, when I look in someone’s eyes it feels that they are hiding something, I don’t trust people. Jokes and laughter feels aimed at me any social occasion feels like I’m at the front and everyone’s wondering what my input is, everything is analysed.
