My Experience With Anxiety

I have debated whether to write this blog post for quite some time now. Because topics related to mental health tend to generate more engagement than other more commercially-oriented content, I didn’t want this post to be interpreted as being hollow or self-promotional in any way, to the extent that it generates higher-than-normal clicks or page views for me.

In spite of this, two things compelled me to finally publish this: (1) I wanted to simply discuss the topic of anxiety publicly, in hopes that my doing so might play some small role in helping others feel comfortable doing the same. (2) My hope is that some subset of readers will respond to some subset of the points contained within with a nod of their heads, and a sentiment of “Yes, I’ve felt something similar myself”.
