Navigating Anxiety in a Frantic Age
Anxiety has become a prevalent experience in contemporary society, particularly amplified by modern media and external pressures such as political elections. The depiction of anxiety in the movie Inside Out 2 serves as a potent metaphor for both individual and collective feelings of being overwhelmed, characterized by frantic energy leading to paralysis. To counter this, it is essential to incorporate personal grounding practices, such as recognizing one's triggers and knowing when to step back from stressful media consumption. Building a supportive community of friends with diverse coping mechanisms further cultivates resilience against anxiety.
