Follies past are sooner remembered than redressed, and time lost may well be repented, but never recalled. Yes, and but are words for fools: wise people neither hesitate nor retract—they resolve, and they execute. The state of a mind oppressed with a sudden calamity is like that of the fabulous inhabitants of the new-created Earth, who, when the first night came upon them, supposed that day would never return. There are eight primary emotions: fear, surprise, sadness, disgust, anger, anticipation, joy, and acceptance (receptivity). A mood is a low intensity, long-lasting emotional state. Moods act as subtle emotional undercurrent that affects much day-to-day behavior. One concern is the mixing of primary emotions. Each pair of emotions can be mixed to yield a third, more complex emotion. Triggers are things that can cause you to experience Anxiety. Anxiety is apprehension, dread, or uneasiness similar to fear but, based on events that have not happen yet. Things they may cause you anxiety are your genes, chemicals (stimulants), external stress (finances, work, family, etcetera.), self-demands (personal expectations), past events (experiences or memories). Fear thoughts can create anxiety.

 For example, I live in a high-rise building with a lot of unusual people.  Some of them have physically attacked me, and seem to think it is funny or a joke. So when I see many of these people, I try to avoid them because they act ridiculous. They say annoying things, and are always helpless and begging for money or rides to different destinations. It makes me uneasy because there is just one of me and so many of them. These people are very smart and know what they are doing. They pretend to have mental problems and do not get in trouble for their bad behavior, even if they are reported. This makes me very uncomfortable because these predators know they can get away with anything. For example, there is an old man, and he always wants to talk to me, or ask me for a favor, which requires me to input my resources. This creates anxiety for me because I do not know these people, they are not the type of people I would hang out with, and I fear they may do something to hurt me. However, the doctor says, it is okay to say no. Do not avoid them. Be firm.

 Because these people are always mocking people and creating conflict, when I come near this building, I start to think about what may happen, and it makes my stomach hurt, I have trouble breathing, and my face feels flushed. Nevertheless, there is always something weird going on in this building, so if I am not feeling well, I will generally stay inside. These people are always looking to exploit someone or tease someone else because there is something wrong with them, they are broken and it brings them joy to physically and emotionally hurt others, and then they will spend years bragging about the things they do, even though many of actions are illegal. The management is not any better, they gossip with the tenants and spread rumors. I know this sounds preposterous, but it is true. These adults have a lot of time on their hands, to setup uncomfortable situations, they are like teenagers, who do not have parent supervision, they are truly deviant. However, if you avoid them, hide from them, and do not speak up for yourself, it will increase how nervous you feel and could make you feel scared, shameful, embarrassed, overwhelmed, and on edge.

 Nevertheless, you have to be careful with how you tell them about themselves because they like to play the role of victims, when they are aggressors, and there are so many of them and they will gang up on you, so people will think it is you with the problem because the claim is, how can so many be so wrong. Yet, it happens. For example, a 19-year-old girl got drunk at a beach party, in broad daylight, passed out and was gang raped. There is a clear example of how dangerous adults are when they do not fear consequences and are allowed to bully others and play victim status, when they are the aggressors. They will also pretend to be your friends so they can gather information, and will try to scare you to make you think you are in trouble, when you did nothing wrong.  Also, when dealing with bullies, do not turn to risky behavior like drugs, sex, liquor or other dangerous behavior. Talk to you doctor and maybe take some classes so you can figure out how to deal with the situation in a productive manner. Anxiety is not just mental, when you feel it, the disorder can cause you to experience physical symptoms. Some people become so overwhelmed that they cannot breathe and actually pass out. This is why your mind experiences anxiety before it happens, it is trying to protect you from going into shock. Anxiety is not really that common, nearly 30 percent of people in the United States of America experience an anxiety disorder. Therefore, mental health is important. A mental illness is a lot like a cold, you can recover, as long as you take proactive measure, like talking to a doctor. So do not be ashamed to seek treatment, other than medication, for mental health. It will help you in ways you cannot imagine. People who act like angels ought to have angels to deal with.
