Poem: Anxiety

by shiori_makiba

Can't remember what this style of poetry is called. Again, trying to work though my emotions and anxiety with creativity instead of continued withdrawal.

Edit: The style is called acrostic. Thanks alatefeline!

Warning: Anxiety

Anxiety

Anxiety is a difficult beast to subdue.

Nothing and everything can set it off. It can

X-out your strength to keep striving forward.

It can make you feel worthless. It

Encourages you to feel guilty for not having enough spoons

To cope with everything by yourself. But

You are not alone.

Reach out there, almost

Everything is fixable.

All you need is to be patient and gentle with yourself.

Call on those who love and support you

Help is available. It's

Out there. I

Understand that it's hard to ask for help sometimes (all the time) but

Try it, good help can be hard to find but so worth it the effort.
