Tbh i hate this post bc anxiety takes a lot of different forms and its often not just “being worried about everything in general.” Like I’m doing rly good rn but when it was bad my list for dating someone with anxiety (me) would be like:
-be prepared for them to never ever admit that they can’t stop imagining horrible things happening to their bodies, like being stabbed to death or their face mangled w a fork
-sometimes they’ll scratch themselves w blunt knives and sometimes they’ll carve little symbols on their skin but they will probably cover them w band aids and get weird if u ask about them
-them not being able to listen to any music or watch anything other than cartoons because of Fear
-panic attacks??? Not sure why this one wasnt listed
Basically, anxiety isn’t cute its weird and gross and different for different people
