Anxiety is a thin stream of fear trickling through the mind. If encouraged, it cuts a channel into which all other thoughts are drained.

coolsuggestion:

I want my heart to stop hurting over the littlest things. I want to spend the night without being overwhelmed with sadness. I want to stop having doubt and insecurities and I want someone to love me and not get sick of reassuring me I’m not just an added annoyance to their life

I used to get upset and angry when people didn’t treat me the way I treated them. When I’d be there for friends but they left me in my time of need, when I gave people so much of my love and time and they didn’t reciprocate. I felt drained and frustrated. But now I’ve realised, it’s so freeing when you no longer expect anything from people. Do good, treat others well, love people even though you may get nothing in return. Life is about what you give, not what you receive.
