Living with Anxiety Feels Exhausting
Does any of this feel familiar?
You replay conversations in your head, worrying about what you said (or didn’t say).
You lie awake at night, exhausted but unable to shut your brain down.
Your body feels tense all the time—like you can’t fully relax, even for a moment.
You snap at people you love, then feel guilty afterward.
You worry about everything—the big stuff and the tiny details most people wouldn’t even notice.
It’s like anxiety has seeped into every corner of your life—work, school, relationships, even how you talk to yourself. And it leaves you wondering: “Why can’t I just be okay?”
You don’t have to keep carrying this alone. We get it—and we can help.
You’ve carried so much for so long. You don’t have to hold it alone anymore.
Anxiety Looks Different for Everyone
Anxiety isn’t one-size-fits-all. Sometimes it’s obvious, like panic attacks. Other times, it quietly drains your energy until you realize how much it’s affecting you.
It might show up as:
Physical symptoms: headaches, chest tightness, stomach issues, racing heart, fatigue
Emotional symptoms: irritability, dread, guilt, numbness, mood swings
Mental symptoms: perfectionism, “what if” spirals, “overanalyzing, negative self-talk
Behavioral symptoms: avoiding people, procrastinating, overworking, zoning out, struggling with boundaries
If any of this feels familiar, it doesn’t mean you’re broken. It means your nervous system has been in overdrive—and therapy can help calm it down.
