Anxiety\ I am okay

Every cell in my body has frozen up,

Rushing to my mind which deflects my thoughts-

My heart beating so rapidly forcing the anxiety to make me feel small-

When I inhale all I get is the heavy painful breaths of exhaling out-

The hairs on my arms stand as my throat swells making it hard for me to swallow.

I have fallen into a deep dark pit that seems to drag me down-

I need to feel okay and think I am okay-if I am not okay-

How can I climb out of this trap on my mind-which I can’t escape from?

I am okay, I am okay- the anxiety has me chained

Well I am okay because

I am strong

Enough

To defeat

This

Trap.

So long –

Going to climb out of this pit

It is just mind tricks.

I am okay.
