I'm a startup founder working on a really technical startup. I'm like 6 or 7 months into it.

I found out that I get to skip a regulatory step that was going to be super expensive. I should be really happy about it, but instead I got really anxious that things were working out and spent the rest of the day playing videogames.

I'm not really sure how to explain it, but it wasn't great. Also, is it dumb to do a difficult startup when I have anxiety problems? Probably. But...fuck it. I want to do it.

I think I'm over the anxiety attack now, but it was not fun.
