crippling anxiety
something bad will happen
nothing is wrong
nothing bad will happen
but try convincing my body that
hands shaking
clammy
heart racing
unsettling feeling
butterflies
the butterflies are the worst part
they make me want to throw up
i try to breathe
breathe slow
deep
in and out
close my eyes
it works for a while
then it sets back in and i jump
it takes over
it's impossible to recover
when im in this deep
im in too deep
and im sinking
