What other's see:
She always has everything in control;
She's so calm, unfazed, confident;
She's always there to help others but she never asks for help;
She always has it figured out somehow;
She's so organized, punctual
and prepared for anything.Her reality:
She constantly worries about things going wrong
and thinks about the worst possibilities that could happen;
She hopes that she doesn't say anything stupid
or out of context,
and wishes that they never figured how nervous she really is;
She's there to help others because
she doesn't want to come out as rude or selfish,
but she never asks for help even when
she's drowning because she thinks
she's a burden and no body should have to deal with her;
She's organized because she'll lose it
and she doesn't want to forget anything;
She's punctual because if someone listened to her thoughts,
they would only hear, "I'm going to be late, I'm going to be late, I hate being late!"
She's always prepared cause
she over thought every possibility and prepared for them."Is this normal?" She thought.
Oh, it's High Functional Anxiety,
she figured.
