Anxiety

Everyone has felt it before, the feeling on the night before Christmas, anxious to awake in the morning to open presents. Anxiety can sometimes be good, like waiting for Christmas morning, or it can be anticipating a sharp sting after getting your ears pierced, anxious for it all to be over with. Anxiety is having to pay the bills when you have no money. Or starting a new job, not knowing what to do or what the managers are like. It’s starting a new life, at a new school, with new people, trying to make new friends. It is also trying to find the job that is necessary to pay the bills. Sometimes there’s a quick and easy solution to relieve anxiety, other times not. When you’re getting those ears pierced, the pain will be over with in a matter of no time, there’s an easy getaway. But when you’ve used your credit card one too many times, and the bills just keep coming, there’s no easy escape. Anxiety is graduating from high school; it’s almost over and there’s only one more year. It’s having math homework that you’ve procrastinated too long on, and somehow you’re in the next day of math class already. Anxiety is an unwanted and nervous feeling, but it’s almost gone, and you’re anxious for the feeling to leave.
