A PRECISE PORTRAIT OF AN ANXIOUS LIFE Kat Kinsman has been nervous for as long as she can remember. Well, not just nervous, but cripplingly worried, anxious, often depressed?teetering on the terrifying edge of becoming a messy horror show of a person. Most days she can mask her condition pretty well. But not every day. GAD, or generalized anxiety disorder, is the most prominently diagnosed mental illness today. The feral cat to depression's black dog, it affects Kat and millions of others, primarily women. In a journey through the alleyways and burrows of her life, Kat takes us through a landscape of lost love, lost jobs, lost identity, and the struggle to sustain herself when the voice in her head, the beast shrieking for attention, keeps self-confidence and calm at bay. Hi, Anxiety is a thoughtful, wry, heartbreaking, brave, but ultimately happy story of what life looks like through the lens of anxiety, and will reassure anyone ever held in the clutches of GAD that they are never alone?and the best way to fight back is to say its name loud and clear.
