For overdoers whose anxiety wants them to PIVOT every time something doesn’t go exactly how they thought it might.
Nothing’s on Fire. Sit Down.
I use images like this because anxiety lives in the body, not just the words. A visual gives your nervous system something to grab onto before your brain starts overanalyzing. Metaphors and images create a pause, a moment of recognition, and a felt sense of “oh, that’s me” before logic ever kicks in. For people who live in their heads, pictures interrupt the loop in a way explanations can’t, and that interruption is often where change actually starts.
TLDR: Because words alone won’t shut my brain up.
Happy Anxiety Shutting Down Friends.
