Signs of Anxiety

When the mind is pulled into the past or caught worrying about the future.

Anxiety can show up in many different ways. For some people it’s a constant sense of tension or unease; for others it comes in waves, or appears suddenly without warning.

You might notice things like:

  • feeling on edge, tense, or unable to relax

  • persistent worrying or overthinking

  • a sense of dread or anticipating the worst

  • feeling self-conscious or scrutinised by others

  • difficulty staying present

Anxiety doesn’t only affect the mind — it can also be felt in the body. This may include:

  • tightness in the chest or stomach

  • restlessness or feeling unable to sit still

  • changes in breathing or heart rate

  • fatigue, sleep disruption, or headaches

For some people, anxiety can also involve panic attacks, dissociation, or fears about losing control — experiences that can feel frightening and isolating.

You’re not broken, and you’re not alone. Anxiety is a human response, often shaped by life experiences, stress, or earlier wounds.

I offer a supportive, paced space to explore what anxiety feels like for you, and to gently develop awareness, grounding, and understanding in a way that feels safe and manageable.
