Suffering from the life-sucking anxiety almost my whole life, I wanted to somehow convey my feelings on paper. Throughout my 12 years of school, I felt trapped in a "puddle of panic". The defrosted and pre-made food that the schools provided caused me to stare, as anxious thoughts entered my mind. Every day I was petrified that the food would exit my stomach forcefully. Then I would be mortified imagining those around me staring in disgust. These were and still are the thoughts my mind "concocts" to make me feel prepared for those situations. No one understood why I would break into tears as a plate of food was placed in front of me. I felt alone and frustrated at the fact that no one seemed to understand me.

 

My book "Stress Mess" highlights the stressful moments in my life and how I ended up coping with it without medical help.
