I always said anxiety is fear, anxiety is not knowing what might come of a situation and it ramps up until a panic attack scares you and then you’re scared of the situation and the panic attack feels like death is all just from fear.

Then when it all stops, you fear the possibility of another panic attack and the fear cycle starts again.

Now I have a reason my anxiety has been so high, I’m overstimulated. I’m over sensitive and I struggle with this most people hardly bat an eye at.

It may be anxiety caused by my autism, but at least I know the why behind my anxiety now. I no longer feel like I don’t belong in my own skin.
