Anxiety

Why do I feel so different than the rest of Society 
How come I get so overwhelmed with this Anxiety 
Everything’s in slow motion and I can’t hear a sound 
My fear increases as my heart begins to pound
Close to hyperventilating with no end in sight
Living in a constant state of fight or flight 
This happens all the time it’s becoming Problematic 
Everyday I’m becoming increasingly symptomatic 
Why do I always get so easily triggered 
I’m guess it must be the way my brains configured 
This is something I deal with every hour of every day 
I need to find a solution. I need to find a way
