Personal Narrative: Anxiety And Stress

Week four at Wild Dunes began on Sunday with three evening shifts 3-11PM. Sunday, the 31st was extremely slow with very few arrivals. I was able to concentrate on one of my goals – mastering the complex computer system. Being the perfectionist that I am, it is frustrating when I feel as though I haven’t mastered a skill so I’m working on that aspect of my personality. Since the shift was so slow, I was released early on this Sunday as there were no arrivals due in at the late hours.

She wanted to go back to sleep and finish the dream she was having… She took a bite of potatoes, trying to stir up an appetite.

In Another Thanksgiving Dinner the author conveys how Hannah’s relationship changes with her father throughout the story by using the character’s feelings and actions.

Tante Lou rose from her knees, still humming, and walked -- nearly skipped -- back inside. She kept on cooking as Miss Emma came in from the hallway along with the yappy

My whole life, I had always thought that people reacted the same way I did in stressful situations, and the people around me experienced emotions and thoughts the same way. The realization that I overreacted and suffered immensely because of it made me feel isolated and seemed daunting, as if I would never understand or be able to fight the feeling of hopelessness that overwhelmed my system.

She slowly got up, wondering who she should wake up. She decided to let them sleep, just going down stairs and starting to make breakfast for all of them. She knew that they loved chocolate cake so she made a bunch of that, along with some bacon, pancakes, and eggs. She got the table ready before plating all of

All my life, I have suffered from generalized anxiety disorder, which can make it difficult to do mundane tasks and educational requirements. For example, giving speeches, taking exams and quizzes, and having to communicate with other students that I do not know. I have been sheltered most of my life, which causes things that would be considered basic to other people to scare me. After analyzing my anxious tendencies, I came to the conclusion that the root of my anxiety comes from having seperation anxiety from my Mother after my Father passed away, which made me scared to talk to people, resulting in speech anxiety. My main fear with my speech anxiety is that I will receive a bad grade on my speech or not do well enough academically. I strive

It was an oppressively hot and humid day (as usual) at Academy at the Lakes, and Mrs. Starkey was giving a tour to a group of august looking potential investors for the next fundraiser. As she approached the ‘infamous’ Room M-32, she began to feel nervous, and she began to speculate about the devastating possibilities, an idiosyncratic habit of hers. With sweat in her hand, she grabbed the door handle, and she, reluctantly, opened the door. Utter chaos. There were mad kids screaming at each other, and kids hitting each other; the class behaved like a stochastic fractal. Some kids were severely injured with broken bones and traumatizing hits to the head, and other kids were defenestrated. Mrs. Frizzle was out of school (so was the magical school bus), but her students were still in the classroom.

It was a beautiful summer evening at my uncle’s firework stand in Stillwater on July 7, 2012. We were sitting on the cement next to the giant metal building containing thousands of dollars worth of fireworks. I looked up at the sky and noticed it was getting dark. Together we were thinking of what we could do to pass the time before we had to close the stand. So we took a small 200 gram cake cleverly labeled,’’Stressed Out”. in the parking lot..

If I were a famous YouTube sensation, my most watched video would be called: My Depression and Anxiety Story. When I was a Sophomore in high school, I went through a long period of time where I felt utterly miserable and alone all of the time. I would want to share my story with everyone, so they would know that even the most unlikely person can go through hardships. This is my story.

I collapsed to the floor as my lungs shrunk two sizes and my tears couldn’t even be released due to my inability to breathe, let alone stand. This was my first real panic attack, and my body had succumbed to my mind. Backstage, just minutes before my first play, I began to think about all of the improvisation necessary for my role, and how I had to be in character continually (so as not to ruin the play for everyone else), and I couldn’t handle it. My lines had been erased from my mind, and my vision went blurry from tears and fear. Just then, two people had surrounded me, squatting to get on my level. Dizzy and ready to faint, my two best friends had helped me get a grip of reality again. They reminded

Personally, I have gone through a recovery process with anxiety disorder. Last year, I went through a dark phase because I dealt with the feeling of constant fear with no little explanation 24hrs. Even though everything in my life was perfect, I could not sleep, eat, and be happy. I was excessively worrying something bad could happen to me and I was unable to relax.As months progressed, my situation got worse that it impacted my daily activities in life such as going to school or work. I felt like I was suffocating deep in my thoughts and trapped in a prison. However, no one in my family could understand what was going on. My family would make comments such as stop fearing and pray. I felt so miserable that I could not have peace inside me.

Everyone has had at some point a week in their life that they will never forget and is considered to be a crazy week. Weeks filled with joy, stress, and excitement is what we as humans thrive off. When our adrenaline gets going and our hearts start beating out of our chests; that is when we begin to live and see what life is all about. The craziest week of my life occurred this past summer when I took a mini vacation to Jim Thorpe, Pennsylvania, for my thrilling paintball event I participate in every year. The road trip of about three hours to Pennsylvania was filled with twists and turns that no man could have expected. Before we were even on our way the troubles came flooding towards us. The paintball event itself was filled with excitement but challenges that made my week tough. After the event when I was ready to go home, life threw me more curveballs then I was ready to hit.
