Anxiety: The Whomping Willow (Book 2, Chapter 5)
Harry Potter and the Sacred Text
Anxiety Can Be Helpful
In this chapter, yes, i think that we are seeing the ways in which anxiety can be helpful. Just like pain can help us learn when there's an infection, anxiety can help us see when there's a risk. And what they should have felt anxiety bout is getting in a flying car and not using the invisibility booster,. And none of those anxiety wires were tripped, and therefore they did this incredibly reckless thing. This makes me feel a tremendous amount of compassion for anxiety, because anxiety can prevent us from doing really dumb things.
