Anxiety
I started high school a couple of months ago, but the feeling I felt when I first started will never be forgotten. I was afraid, the very few times where I was so scared, I almost cried. I didn't know what I was so afraid of. I just knew that I was scared and frighten. My anxiety toke over, my eyes started to water, my heart started to race, and it got harder to breathe. When I get anxiety, I do origami. Sometimes for different reasons, but that day, I folded a storm of different things. I made a whole field of flowers, an army of paper tanks, a pond of jumping frogs. It was enough for me to calm down, but my heart did started to slow down a little. When I think back to it, I think I was most afraid of the people. I was afraid of the older kids even though we were close in age. Maybe it's because when I was younger, I didn't have anyone around who was my age. Sometimes I get scared like that still, but it's not as bad as before. I adjusted some what to my new surroundings.
