Basket Case
More about Basket Case
As I lay down at night, unwanted thoughts flood my mind. I’m not sure why I allow them in - they feel intrusive and overwhelming. Before I fall asleep, I compile a deck of “What If’s” and find myself waking up with the same thoughts. I seem to come up with anything that could trigger worry or unease me. I am not sure why I do this, but I do, and I cannot help it. Am I a Basket Case?…no, I really know that anxiety lies.
In the USA, 40 million adults (18.1% of the adult population) are affected by anxiety every year.
