I absolutely love being outdoors in nature. I love hiking, biking, camping, basically anything I can do in the fresh air. Here's the thing though, even when I'm enjoying the beauty of nature, my anxiety is still whispering in my ears.
Others may see beautiful rock formations over them, I can't help thinking, I really hope those rocks don't come toppling down on me. The beauty of large trees is undeniable, to me it's an undeniable possibility that tree could drop a branch on my head. Rapid creatures, poisonous plants, things hiding in the bushes, I've thought of them all. The world is a scary place when anxiety starts putting it's two cents into the situation.
That was the inspiration for this week's comic. The good thing is, I do my best not to hide from the things I love to do, just because my anxiety wants me to.
