Dear Anxiety,
Believe me when I say it’s not me it’s you. Yep, you read that right. I am not the one at fault. You have caused enough problems in my life. So I am breaking up with you and this is why.
You take over my life. All the time I spend with you, could be spent with friends or even a boyfriend. But its not, because I think about you too much. I spend too much time overthinking and second guessing everything. I spend too much time sitting around and worrying about decisions that were made three days ago. I spend so much time thinking about you and that sucks because I can’t afford to spend that much time. My life is so scheduled and on the go that I barely have time for friends. So what makes you think that I have time for you? I want to be able to sleep peacefully. I want to able to enjoy my free time. I want to be able to be fully present with my friends. I want to be able to not think about you.
I know that breaking up with you won’t fix everything because you are just going to come back but its a step in the right direction. I need to start fighting for me and not just with you. I deserve the chance to be away from you and happy. I deserve the chance to be free. So this letter applies to you everyday. Because everyday I am breaking up with you and fighting for me.
Sorry not sorry,
A college student
