3 Anxiety pictures

Anxiety picture: In this anxiety picture a man holds his face and covers his eyes in agony as he screams. This seems to be a typical trait of those suffering from anxiety.

Anxiety picture: In this anxiety picture a man is curled up, almost in the natal position. We tend to do this when we are scared, unaware and frightened of the situations we find ourselves in.

Anxiety picture: In this anxiety picture a note reads “phone a friend”. This is because most people who have anxiety suffer in silence and have no one who looks after them as they have not shared their anxiety with their friends or family. Sharing what you are going through with your friends and family will help you get through your anxiety.
