poetry was my crutch.

i started writing poetry for fun when i was 12,

got diagnosed with anxiety at 13,

and then kept writing because i had to from 14 onwards.

 

i didn’t know how to talk about it. no one seemed to notice or want to ask about it.

so… i just wrote.

some years i didn’t write; some years i wrote so damn much.

anxious(ed) is a dive into my personal mental health journey.

it's a collection of 70 poems/prose i wrote from the ages of 14 to 25. 

i never thought i'd share these writings with people because i didn't really... plan on writing them?

putting my feelings into poetry was just some visceral thing i had to do because i didn't have an outlet for the jumbled shitshow going on in my head.

i don't like a lot of these poems, and i love even fewer...

...but poetry is subjective, i think. so, i hope you find at least one that makes you feel something.
