There's 1,001 words in my head but anxiety has got my tongue. Holding me back, telling me it isn't safe to talk. If I open my mouth, I go into shock. I start stuttering, shaking even bawling some days. I live in fear of others and anxiety won't let up until the day it wins the final battle and I choose to be gone.
