Your Stories: This is What Anxiety Can Feel Like

March 29, 2021March 29, 2021 Health Collective Adwaita Das, anxiety, Understanding Anxiety, YOUR STORIES
What does Anxiety Feel Like by Adwaita Das
Art by Adwaita Das for The Health Collective

Anxiety: One can’t always manage to express what’s going on inside…which happens to be a lot of emotions and thoughts…like a cutting tearing ripping from within…A screaming screaming screaming inside!

The illustration tries to capture that cacophonic razor-edged war in the brain and body.

Positive Affirmation: I Appreciate Myself
