I try

I stand still

My heart starts to race

I try to stand still

My breath becomes faster

I try to stop shaking

My mind is speeding

I try to escape

My blood is running through my veins

I try to not cry

My eyes clamp shut

I try to get invisible

My mind is against me

I try to stand up

My sobs can now be heard

I try to clean up myself

My eyes are bloodshot

I try to go back to my corridor

My friends barely noticed that I was gone

I try to act normal

My breathing evens out

I try to focus

My heart is still beating a bit too fast

I stand still

This is how anxiety can be for me :(
