Hey everyone!
I came across this blog post about how someone living with anxiety who struggles to explain her anxiety to her peers/family/loved ones. She talks about how frustrating it is and how people don’t seem to understand the actual condition. So she decided to make an “anxiety chart” to help explain her anxiety. I looked at it and thought it was AMAZING and described it PERFECTLY. Here’s the article in case you want to read it: https://themighty.com/2018/03/anxiety-chart-help-other-understand-anxiety/
And here is the anxiety chart (let me know what you think and if you think it can be or is helpful!):
TurningPointCT.org was developed by young people in Connecticut who are in recovery from mental health and substance use issues. We know what it’s like to feel alone, stressed, worried, sad, and angry. We’ve lived through the ups and downs of self-harm, drugs and alcohol, and the struggle to find help.

Love love love! What a great way to help those who struggle with anxiety express how they are feeling to people who may not have personal experience.

i love this 🙂
This is awesome! Many times it’s so difficult to express to others what the exact feelings that we may be going through are, and drawing them out in a chart such as this can definitely be an effective way of trying to express yourself when all other methods seem impossible or too difficult. Thanks for sharing!
Oh I love this! It is so spot on!!
Thank you for sharing my work on your site. Linking this page back to my original piece. Have a wonderful day.
