attack of the mind

Today I had an anxiety attack. I was in the middle of German class texting my mom (shhhhh). When she got frustrated at me for something. All of a sudden my head started to get heavy and my eyes became very warm. Before I knew it thoughts about failing my algebra quiz the next hour, my brother being rebelious, and my grandmother being very ill, were filling my mind. I looked over at myfriend giving away what was happening with my eyes now starting to water. Anxiety. Attack. Is what my insides were screaming but my outside was as calm and collected as normal save for the shaking of my hands. Anxiety to God is an evil, something that can take over your life. If you put anxiety first it will rule you, rather than him. But what is anxiety to society? To most teachers Ive had anxiety is an excuse. They believe students work themselves up purposely to not have to do a presentation or take a test. When in reality they want to get a passing grade but know itsimpossible with thoughts racing about in their heads. Many peers believe anxiety is silly. Something only weak people have, the cry babys of society. I believe anxiety is worsened in the minds of anxious people because of the assumptions its associated with. I ended up going home took some anxiety medication and am now cuddled up with my kitten writing this post to keep my mind busy and not focused on my anciousness.
