It’s so hard to live with anxiety. Thank you for this amazing song You did a really good job like always but this one feels close to home Keep going and be happy :)
Anxiety is one of the hardest things to deal with. It’s makes you overthink, over question, makes you think so much is your fault, etc. People think if you just pop a pill or two you’ll be fine but no that’s not how it works. I’m 16 and I have it chronic, I’ve been to 8 different hospitals in the last 3 years, people still say it’s just for attention. If your trying to seek help for something that you know you need help for it’s not for attention, your doing the right thing. You gotta remember that it’ll get better, you’ll get through this, just keep going and if you do need help let someone know and don’t give up till you get the help.
That why am in therapy to help me heal my scars and wounds and am 15 it’s hard to deal with anixaty but I have friends and family who support me and helps me threw it good speetch glade to know not alone too
I live with social anxiety. Shackled to my house because I’m Afraid. Even something as simple as getting a haircut, filled with anxiety and people (especially my barber) around me wondering why I’m shaking. This illness is difficult to live with, but your performance on AGT has really inspired me to get out there. Thank You.
Rudy Guzman I’m young and it’s hard in class I’m shaking my hart is pounding every one is looking at me I feel so lonely but 1/3 people have it but I feel like the only one.
@@jj_ashy2672 I struggle with it also. I’m currently anxious about starting my first day of senior year of high school. Its currently 12 in the morning, and im tired but like…I don’t want to face school! I know it’s one more year, and im trying to get my flexible worked out-since I started some college classes over summer break. But I feel ya, I suffer from it.
Hey you, yeah you reading this right now, Stay strong. You're not alone. You're amazing. Whenever you feel sad or lonely just remember there's at least one person on this planet who cares. I care. Yes, i do. And i promise you'll get better. It sounds easier than it is, i know. But you just need to stay stong and need to have hope. I love u
@@bubbles6853 I totally undersrand where you're coming from but I just want people to know that there's fr at least one person who cares and who loves you.
Thank you very much for this song Anna! I'm suffering with anxiety since some years and every day is hard to survive. It's really important that you share your story. Keep your head up and stay strong! Lot's of love
On the surface, everything's just fine But nervous doesn't describe what's going on behind these eyes It's just too easy to fake a smile But you got my heartbeat on repeat Going 'bout a hundred thousand miles My mind's racing but I could never out run you You're two steps ahead while I'm tripping over my shoes A-N-X-I-E-T-Y No matter how hard I try, you will never leave Yeah, yeah H-A-T-E Y-O-U And all the stupid things you do I give in so easily You get the best of me You get the best of me I wish I could just let you go But the truth is, you are all I've ever known You're an infection, a medicine just numbs my brain I'm doing anything and everything to feel normal again What's normal again? 'Cause my mind's racing but I could never out run you You're two steps ahead while I'm tripping over my shoes My mind's racing but I could never out run you Playing games with me that I will always lose A-N-X-I-E-T-Y No matter how hard I try, you will never leave Yeah, yeah H-A-T-E Y-O-U And all the stupid things you do I give in so easily You get the best of me You get the best of me It's crazy, my thoughts start racing And my mind erasing everything I knew It's just pills and therapy bills Just to keep me away from you And it works for a little while, bullshit smiles But I'm just walk through the motions Either that, or losing track of my emotions 4 a.m. panic attacks Taking red eyes back home I feel by myself but with you, I'm never alone Damn A-N-X-I-E-T-Y No matter how hard I try, you will never leave
i’m 14 and i’ve had anxiety just about my whole life, it’s so hard to deal with it day in and day out. this is a really good song it’s explains it so well.
hesitating before knocking on a door,because you need a moment to muster up the courage. leaving the super market because you couldn't find what you wanted and asking someone is not an option. Feeling your heart nearly palpitate when dialling a number because your mum made you phone yourself rehearsing your response in your head before raising your hand in class to make sure you don't screw it up. Staying silent when sitting with a group at lunch because you never know anything you say can be ridiculed
Please don't EVER give up, Anna!!!! This world is a much much much better place with YOU in it!!! I'm sure you have a million people you can talk with but if you ever want to talk with someone outside of your circle ... I am here.
This song explains everything about anxiety. I have anxiety and it’s bad. Your heart races 200 mph it feel like and it feels like you’re running a race you can never finish you keeping on trying to get to the end but you never get there. Anxiety makes you overthink, assume the worst, and feel not enough to go hangout with your friends and you over stress everything you do. People can say “it’s all in your head” “just get over it” it’s not that easy and it doesn’t work like that. things can help it but not fully. It’s so hard to live with it, it’s either your worst enemy or your best friend but everyone is not lucky enough to be best friends or even friends with it. It’s a struggle.
For someone who suffers anxiety this is true. 'My minds racing but I can never out run you' Anxiety doesn't leave its always there, in the back of your mind, waiting to take control of you. I use to resort to self harm to calm myself during anxiety. It has gotten better but its always there. Thank you Anna for making such a realistic song, I've been listening to this to help me calm down. Bless you,your voice, music, and your beautiful heart overall❤
this is such a painfully accurate representation. thank you for being so raw and honest and open with the world. this is a difficult struggle but seeing your own struggles represented, makes them SO MUCH EASIER to cope with. thank you, anna.
My parents: get over it and smile Me: *fakes smiles* My parents: see it is easy Me: ye 10 hr’s later 4:00 am! I am still trying to stop crying my self to sleep Hi everyone who read this comment I am feeling better then ever now and I hope everyone who related to this is too 🥳😁
I hope anyone who reads this knows that it is okay to cry. All of your problems will go away, even if you think it will never. There will always be a happy ending and there is always someone there for you, even if you think there isn’t, it just depends the way you look at it. Just be positive and may many prayers and blessings come your way. P.s it also helps to pray every while and breathe.
I can’t explain how much this song has just explained my life, I don’t know what it’s like to live without anxiety. It takes over your everyday actions, thoughts and dreams. I can’t thank you enough Anna Clendening, I’m so glad you write all you do and your voice is perfection 💕 I doubt you’ll see this but I appreciate you!

I listened to this song after I had an anxiety attack a couple of nights ago, it really calmed me down, I went from crying and sweating to just sitting in my bed calmly
Hello, Anna.....just saw your first audition in AGT.....I can say I almost saw King David playing thru your eyes.....beautiful eyes !!! Hope things are better now, and watching your channel makes me think you were blessed. Keep singing because you were born for this. Brazil is rooting for you. Take care....
this song is how exactly i feel most of the time just wishing the ground would open up and swollow me up but listing to this song really helps me with my anxiety and depression so thank you so much anna for the amazing song i have it on repeat at the minute to help me
Whoever reads this i just want you to know that: it's really hard right now,i don't know what you are going through but you are strong and nothing is impossible 😊
I sincerely hope your anxiety problem magically and completely disappears. You have a beautiful public projection, so just keep doing what you're doing...making all of us happy with your voice.
Thank you for showing what anxiety really is, and how hard it can effect a person. I struggle so hard with anxiety. I went from being the life of the party , to never going out , it was hard to be around the people that knew me so well too. Your songs give me hope and assurance that I'm not the only one dealing with this, I'm not crazy, and to just take one step at a time.
Wow, my daughter has suffered with anxiety for most of her life. As a parent, you feel totally helpless. I hope you are finding something to cope with your anxiety. Your song and poignant lyrics really are an education for those who never experienced anxiety of a loved one or of themselves. Thank you Anna.
Someone may wonder how such a beautiful and strong woman can have all these problems to deal with. As if the surface can determine what we are and represent our essence. Sometimes it does, but most of the time is what we have inside that determines who we really are, a hidden and twisted world like an Escher lithograph. You are an inspiration for all those who want to be greater than their fears, for all those who do not want to be crushed by the weight of their problems and want to live their lives to the fullest despite what they have inside.
the place with earphones and scratching then lying down those are very accurate- at least for me. the numbness in my face the deep breathing every time.
I have always been told "fake it till you make it", but with Anxiety there is no making it. My mind goes a mile a min. and won't shut down. this song is so beautiful, and really hits my heart. Listening to this song gives me a real smile. Someone who knows how we feel.
Never seen an accurate example of anxiety until now , this is what i go through every single day ! You are not alone .. i know sometimes it feels that way
This video is still something I watch when I am having a rough day. Thank you for being real and honest about anxiety and panic attacks. I have had anxiety my whole life and I am 30 now it doesnt get easier to be honest honest harder. Anxiety doesnt ever go away. I survive but some people done understand it. I also had a panic attack last night actually to be honest. life.
This is EXACTLY what dealing with it is like, so few people get it when I try to explain it. But THIS, this is what it is. It's so relentless. You're strong, Anna, even through this kind of hell. I believe in that.
You are gonna make me cry Anna, This song is incredible, I love all of your songs and had listened to this song before the music video, it is incredible.
I just want to let everyone know that God is with you! Just pray to him, and even though you might not think He is listening, He is!! God has a plan for every single one of us!! And he can't wait for you to be back with home with Him!
Anna's songs by far are the best I have ever listened to. You can tell they come from a personal level. They describe the words I can't even begin to stay. They give me the validation that I need and no one else has been able to give. Thanks for the great music Anna!
You have the most relatable songs. Keep inspiring and exposing how people actually feel. Keep showing the inside because others don’t know. They may never know.
It’s so hard to explain anxiety to people who haven’t had to go through anxiety. Thank you for this song. You’ve always known how to explain my heart and feelings and I cannot thank you enough for your music. ❤️
@@lisadtrx7795 honestly I struggle very much with being kind... I've rarely had others be kind to me. But meeting people like you makes everything worth it
I relate so much to this song. I had a realization a year ago that I didn't really want to say goodbye to my anxiety because that's all I knew. When you start to get better you get scared because you don't know what you will be without it but in the same time you want to be free. I'm so glad that you share this through your music and never give up. We are with you Anna! Keep on being you! ♥♥
If only people could understand what it's like, tried to explain the feeling and symptoms so many times. Almost every time you can see the expressions change on their face as they fail to register just how debilitating and terrifying an attack can be. How it feels afterwards, exhausting.......... I have a tremendous respect for you and your music Anna. So many people out here DO understand what your singing about, believe me. Be happy when you can be and keep the music coming. xxx
Your music has gotten me through so much crap in the past couple weeks. My world seems to be crashing around me and your music means so much to me, thank you for having the courage and confidence to be able to provide us with these amazing lyrics. Thank you, your music has saved me from myself.
i am so grateful for what i have i have a beautiful family and loads of supporters but i do break down about 3 times a week and its really hard and i never talk to someone i just keep crying anxiety is so hard you stress so much over some little things and people dont know what your going through
No matter where I go on youtube, I always end up finding you. The amount of strength you have is amazing. I cannot even begin to fathom what its like to live with anxiety. I wish the best for you and hope you have all the support and love possible from those closest to you.
I just had to cry while watching this because it's so relatable to me. I suffer for 3 years now of anxiety and panic attacks and sometimes it’s so hard to fight against this disorder because you have the feeling it would take all over you. But forget it! There are and will be times in our lives where everything is okay and just stay on to that :) You will get there!
I deal with anxiety. Often about nothing in particular. This song helps me realise that I’m not at all alone, or weird for feeling like this, I’ve sometimes considered if I’m subconsciously faking it but I really don’t think so. Thanks!
This gave me anxiety watching but only because it finally put it into words and it is extremely relatable!!! Amazing thank u so much, something so real and runs day to day for me
I've always felt like relating to sad songs only makes it worse for me but when I saw this video, it made me feel better. I always try to escape from the outside world by putting on my headphones and now it's the first time I feel better knowing I'm not alone and others have same sort of anxiety and panic attacks too.
Thank you for being vulnerable in order to give us a voice and showing them that anxiety is not a choice. Your words run deep within my soul. So many people don't understand how anxiety works or that it is ALWAYS with us even on the best of days. I am so grateful for you. ♥️
Wow...I'm 54 just found you on utube. I totally can relate to the anxiety. Had it for years handled it with hard exercise and alcohol. I've been doing therapy for last 3 years. A new job and a total change of life took it tole and I could no longer do it on my own. Nor when I was younger, no one realized my problem. Though I'm not used to this type of music....I listened to every word I I understand you 100%!! Keep up the great work 👍. 😄😄😄 Take care!!
It’s so hard to live with anxiety.
Thank you for this amazing song
You did a really good job like always but this one feels close to home Keep going and be happy :)
Every day is so hard to get through

"What's normal again?" I felt that. 😭
I know I'm so late but, to anyone who has anxiety, don't stop trying. YOU CAN get through this!!!
On the surface, everything's just fine
But nervous doesn't describe what's going on behind these eyes
It's just too easy to fake a smile
But you got my heartbeat on repeat
Going 'bout a hundred thousand miles
My mind's racing but I could never out run you
You're two steps ahead while I'm tripping over my shoes
A-N-X-I-E-T-Y
No matter how hard I try, you will never leave
Yeah, yeah
H-A-T-E Y-O-U
And all the stupid things you do

You're an infection, a medicine just numbs my brain
I'm doing anything and everything to feel normal again
What's normal again?
'Cause my mind's racing but I could never out run you
You're two steps ahead while I'm tripping over my shoes
My mind's racing but I could never out run you
Playing games with me that I will always lose
A-N-X-I-E-T-Y
No matter how hard I try, you will never leave
Yeah, yeah
H-A-T-E Y-O-U
And all the stupid things you do
I give in so easily
You get the best of me
You get the best of me
It's crazy, my thoughts start racing
And my mind erasing everything I knew
It's just pills and therapy bills
Just to keep me away from you
And it works for a little while, bullshit smiles
But I'm just walk through the motions
Either that, or losing track of my emotions
4 a.m. panic attacks
Taking red eyes back home
I feel by myself but with you, I'm never alone
Damn
A-N-X-I-E-T-Y
No matter how hard I try, you will never leave
Thank youuu

This is the perfect depiction of Anxiety. Very well done.

I listened to this song after I had an anxiety attack a couple of nights ago, it really calmed me down, I went from crying and sweating to just sitting in my bed calmly
Hello, Anna.....just saw your first audition in AGT.....I can say I almost saw King David playing thru your eyes.....beautiful eyes !!! Hope things are better now, and watching your channel makes me think you were blessed. Keep singing because you were born for this. Brazil is rooting for you. Take care....
this song is how exactly i feel most of the time just wishing the ground would open up and swollow me up but listing to this song really helps me with my anxiety and depression so thank you so much anna for the amazing song i have it on repeat at the minute to help me
Some of the best written and sung songs like this dont get Grammys and exposure like it deserves.
You have a beautiful voice and a pure heart that only comes with suffering....keep going....make all of us with anxiety/OCD proud
Whoever reads this i just want you to know that: it's really hard right now,i don't know what you are going through but you are strong and nothing is impossible 😊
Anna just remember you are beautiful and are enough there is nothing in this world that can bring you down
I sincerely hope your anxiety problem magically and completely disappears. You have a beautiful public projection, so just keep doing what you're doing...making all of us happy with your voice.
The best is what you can give. Nothing less or more. But there is ever the feeling: Is it enough? Thanks for your song and support.
“I’m doing anything and everything to feel normal again...what’s normal again?” I felt that
You have voice of a angel
My anxiety was with me till 6th grade then it started to become social anxiety now in 12th grade I swear it is so hard to talk to any1 now :/
same… social anxiety is the reason behind everything i do and it's ruining everything
“I feel by myself but with you I’m never alone” 🥺🥺🥺 damn...
Thank you for showing what anxiety really is, and how hard it can effect a person. I struggle so hard with anxiety. I went from being the life of the party , to never going out , it was hard to be around the people that knew me so well too. Your songs give me hope and assurance that I'm not the only one dealing with this, I'm not crazy, and to just take one step at a time.
Thank you. Thank you for finally making a song to help other people understand the difficulties of having crippling anxiety.
Wow, my daughter has suffered with anxiety for most of her life. As a parent, you feel totally helpless. I hope you are finding something to cope with your anxiety. Your song and poignant lyrics really are an education for those who never experienced anxiety of a loved one or of themselves. Thank you Anna.
This an amazing song and I understand this video so much I love it ❤️❤️
Someone may wonder how such a beautiful and strong woman can have all these problems to deal with.
As if the surface can determine what we are and represent our essence.
Sometimes it does, but most of the time is what we have inside that determines who we really are, a hidden and twisted world like an Escher lithograph.
You are an inspiration for all those who want to be greater than their fears, for all those who do not want to be crushed by the weight of their problems and want to live their lives to the fullest despite what they have inside.
the place with earphones and scratching then lying down those are very accurate- at least for me. the numbness in my face the deep breathing every time.
I have always been told "fake it till you make it", but with Anxiety there is no making it. My mind goes a mile a min. and won't shut down. this song is so beautiful, and really hits my heart. Listening to this song gives me a real smile. Someone who knows how we feel.
I'm 63 and young lady you hit my heart with the hammer of truth, amazing music.
Even when its hard, keep singing from the heart. The curse of the artist is the compulsion to feel outloud, the blessing is the muse.
this song and the videoclip thats actually how I felt. amazing job! 3 years now free of panic attacks :)
I’ve always followed your music and this speaks to me. I always have looked up to you girl. It’s great what you are doing ❤️
Never seen an accurate example of anxiety until now , this is what i go through every single day ! You are not alone .. i know sometimes it feels that way
This video is still something I watch when I am having a rough day. Thank you for being real and honest about anxiety and panic attacks. I have had anxiety my whole life and I am 30 now it doesnt get easier to be honest honest harder. Anxiety doesnt ever go away. I survive but some people done understand it. I also had a panic attack last night actually to be honest. life.
This is EXACTLY what dealing with it is like, so few people get it when I try to explain it. But THIS, this is what it is. It's so relentless.
You're strong, Anna, even through this kind of hell. I believe in that.
You are gonna make me cry Anna, This song is incredible, I love all of your songs and had listened to this song before the music video, it is incredible.
This song needs more credit, to be more known everyone says there isn’t a song about anxiety but she clearly made a great song with a perfect video
this song is so relatable
this song shows how people who have anxiety live everyday
thank you so much for this song❤
I just want to let everyone know that God is with you! Just pray to him, and even though you might not think He is listening, He is!! God has a plan for every single one of us!! And he can't wait for you to be back with home with Him!
Thank you for making this song
I suffer with anxiety and it's really hard sometimes
Anna's songs by far are the best I have ever listened to. You can tell they come from a personal level. They describe the words I can't even begin to stay. They give me the validation that I need and no one else has been able to give. Thanks for the great music Anna!
You have the most relatable songs. Keep inspiring and exposing how people actually feel. Keep showing the inside because others don’t know. They may never know.
super relatable. watching the video thinking "Damn, that sucks. Damn, I feel that. Ouch..."
It’s so hard to explain anxiety to people who haven’t had to go through anxiety. Thank you for this song. You’ve always known how to explain my heart and feelings and I cannot thank you enough for your music. ❤️
Wow fantastic song, baring your soul like that is so brave. Braver then me. Your voice Is incredible, thank you for sharing 😎👍🏻
Anna you are an inspiration to myself and many others that suffer from mental illness. Thank you for being brave enough to write and perform this.
Thanks so much for everything ❤ you truly mean the world to me and I couldn't be more proud of you.
You're such a kind person
@@BeeMusic2024 that's the best compliment ❤thank you
@@lisadtrx7795 you're welcome. I can tell you smile from the heart 😊
@@BeeMusic2024 that's so so nice ❤I can tell for sure that you're very kind too 😌
@@lisadtrx7795 honestly I struggle very much with being kind... I've rarely had others be kind to me. But meeting people like you makes everything worth it
Still love this song never found a single one other than this that's describes my anxiety so well
Every word of this song speaks to me .. love this song
This song is a perfect representation on how I feel daily, currently on repeat 🔊🎧
It's just too easy to fake a smile 😁😭
I relate so much to this song. I had a realization a year ago that I didn't really want to say goodbye to my anxiety because that's all I knew. When you start to get better you get scared because you don't know what you will be without it but in the same time you want to be free. I'm so glad that you share this through your music and never give up. We are with you Anna! Keep on being you! ♥♥
If only people could understand what it's like, tried to explain the feeling and symptoms so many times. Almost every time you can see the expressions change on their face as they fail to register just how debilitating and terrifying an attack can be. How it feels afterwards, exhausting.......... I have a tremendous respect for you and your music Anna. So many people out here DO understand what your singing about, believe me. Be happy when you can be and keep the music coming. xxx
Your music has gotten me through so much crap in the past couple weeks. My world seems to be crashing around me and your music means so much to me, thank you for having the courage and confidence to be able to provide us with these amazing lyrics. Thank you, your music has saved me from myself.
i am so grateful for what i have i have a beautiful family and loads of supporters but i do break down about 3 times a week and its really hard and i never talk to someone i just keep crying anxiety is so hard you stress so much over some little things and people dont know what your going through
God Bless You!
I’ve been fighting this since 2004.
You are a beautiful and brave soul.
Stress:
Strained
Tense
Rigid
Exhausted
Suffering
Spent
Stress isn't always bad
@@liltimmy2591 what kind of care free world do you live in!? The AVERAGE stress of a teenager is equivalent to that of a 1950s mental ward patient!

Stress is nothing like anxiety.
love you more than words can express ♡
No matter where I go on youtube, I always end up finding you. The amount of strength you have is amazing. I cannot even begin to fathom what its like to live with anxiety. I wish the best for you and hope you have all the support and love possible from those closest to you.
I cant relate more you put everything i have been feeling inside in your words and acting
I just had to cry while watching this because it's so relatable to me. I suffer for 3 years now of anxiety and panic attacks and sometimes it’s so hard to fight against this disorder because you have the feeling it would take all over you. But forget it! There are and will be times in our lives where everything is okay and just stay on to that :) You will get there!
Once again, you totally pinpoint things that I, among others, go through and feel with graceful precision.
I deal with anxiety. Often about nothing in particular. This song helps me realise that I’m not at all alone, or weird for feeling like this, I’ve sometimes considered if I’m subconsciously faking it but I really don’t think so. Thanks!
You're amazing and an inspiration to everyone. I keep looking at your Audition tape when you showed how you over came everything. 😘💞
I love the portrayal of the rocky unsteady feeling it’s spot on
This is the most accurate and relatable song I think I’ve ever heard
This gave me anxiety watching but only because it finally put it into words and it is extremely relatable!!! Amazing thank u so much, something so real and runs day to day for me
Song spoke to me from the beginning 🧠🗣🔥🔥🔥💪
Omg I'm going through all this right now. You are so awesome and have a beautiful voice. I love you girl ❤️
this song is so real amazing and absolutely true. thank you for sharing this beautiful song with us.
I've always felt like relating to sad songs only makes it worse for me but when I saw this video, it made me feel better. I always try to escape from the outside world by putting on my headphones and now it's the first time I feel better knowing I'm not alone and others have same sort of anxiety and panic attacks too.
This song is amazing, And you describe anxiety so well I love your music please keep doing what you do so good
Thank you for being vulnerable in order to give us a voice and showing them that anxiety is not a choice. Your words run deep within my soul. So many people don't understand how anxiety works or that it is ALWAYS with us even on the best of days. I am so grateful for you. ♥️
Wow...I'm 54 just found you on utube. I totally can relate to the anxiety. Had it for years handled it with hard exercise and alcohol. I've been doing therapy for last 3 years. A new job and a total change of life took it tole and I could no longer do it on my own. Nor when I was younger, no one realized my problem. Though I'm not used to this type of music....I listened to every word I I understand you 100%!! Keep up the great work 👍. 😄😄😄 Take care!!
