Array ( [sid] => 61199 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Anxiety [time] => 2004-08-24 03:40:36 [hometext] => I wrote this right after an anxiety attack, i tried to explain the feeling of it [bodytext] => time goes to fast
time stands still
a mouse-like heartbeat
way to fast
tis mine inside
oh please not again
I feel like I am in slow motion
and everyone else is going to fast
I bite my nails to far down
and chew my skin till it bleeds
the feeling that’s inside
its like my head wants to explode
"its ok coping skills remember"
um...no I don’t remember thanks
if u could say them again
I feel like a rat on acid dear
not really wanting to "remember much"
I’m remembering a lot this second
or was it 5 minutes ago this thought I thunk?
I remember things I did
oh man!
I remember a lot of stuff
not that I am trying mind you
it just happens sometimes
finally its all slowing down
the people around me are going normal speed
or I guess its me who is catching up
I lay on my bed and cry
I hate this
I wish I could fix me
but pills they want to give me
I wont take them anymore
its been to long I’ve been on my own
I can do it on my own
I’ll deal with my anxiety
for now I need to sleep
to remember how to breath [comments] => 2 [counter] => 245 [topic] => 21 [informant] => lessa [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 5 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 0 [associated] => [topicname] => Lifepoems )

Dang, I can't believe there aren't more comments for this. Anyway, I did a search for "anxiety attack" and your poem came up. I know you wrote it quite awhile ago, but I just wanted to say that you describe the feelings well. I have anxiety disorder myself and I hate how people try to shove pills down your throat to "make it all better". If you're bored, check me out at:

I love creative people. Late.
