Yay, out-of-nowhere anxiety attack. >.<

So does anyone else have a thing when their anxiety is spiking and hearing "everything is okay" makes things feel worse because you're NOT okay and you're part of "everything"?

I dunno if this is some sort of spectrumy literal-mindedness thing or what but it sucks. Makes me lash out at people who I ordinarily like who are trying to help me and ugh. :(

@indi *offers hugs* I’ve been dealing with anxiety attacks more often recently myself and the old tactics are not working as much. It sucks. :(
