Anxiety can strike at any moment. One second you're kicking back, relaxing, and enjoying a cool breeze on a hot summer day when out of nowhere your brain starts to betray you. You're suddenly remembering that one horribly awkward thing you said four years ago and can't stop replaying what you should have said instead. Now you're convinced that your so-called "friends" have been lying about actually liking you this whole time and are constantly hanging out without you. It's called overthinking, and if you're someone who does this on a regular basis, you know firsthand how annoying it can be. These jokes will hit a little too close to home for people who overthink everything.
Oh, and if you're looking for a great way to help a loved one manage their anxiety, this guy has got it all figured out.
