Anxious thoughts part 1

<p>I stand in the rain. Edinburgh rain &mdash; the kind that lingers almost permanently regardless of season &mdash; lends itself well to a sombre mood, the greyness of thought that has made itself comfortable in my head since the &rsquo;90s. I ordered an Eggnog Latte having never drunk proper eggnog in my life, and the attempt at being festive is just a reminder I shouldn&rsquo;t have caffeine. It also makes it difficult to fish around for my debit card for the bus.</p> <p>My anxiety is through the roof and, staring along the road in search for the glowing lights of the 26, I wonder why. Could it be that I am jobless? That I left a company I was comfy at for what I thought was my big break and quit three weeks later? Or could it be I am still crippled with grief from the sudden loss of two family members? Surely not. It&rsquo;s because I&rsquo;m broken, I think to myself, rather than acknowledging any number of rational reasons that might explain why I can never catch my breath.</p> <p><a href="https://kathrynblack07.medium.com/anxious-thoughts-part-1-7ffe0e51e368"><strong>Learn More</strong></a></p>
