At chapter 3 where it says "ONE ENDING IS VERY, VERY BAD." actually got my anxiety working real bad when I played. I was so scared that the protagonist would die horribly.

Very nice apology from anxiety, a good apology is always admitting that you were wrong, weak, lack or lacking in something, and taking the perspective of the other person or multiple people and understanding how they were affected by your actions and promising each other or yourself to be better and improve from it in the future.

My fearsona is probably a Hare. Because: 1. My room is my burrow where I block out all the light and hide 2. My fight instinct is like a swift but strong kick/hit/whack like a hare 3.

I think the portrayal of anxiety is perfectly done. I think it’d be way too easy to jump into the whole “Anxiety bad, look how bad my life is” theme, but it portrays anxiety as it is, just a sincere, sometimes overpowering, misunderstanding with your thoughts. And I’m glad that it doesn’t portray all negative emotions as bad, they’re there for a reason after all. Overall: Awesome game. We need more like this.

@@gonepoofed I think it's the exact opposite of oversimplified. It's really well shown, especially with the fourth wall break. A typical interactive game will just keep the player restricted to the logic of the game which won't be much help in the real world. But in this game, the game is honest, and even bittersweet. It challenges popular sayings like "Make peace with your emotions" and shows how easily it falls apart or how easily it can be twisted into mean something completely opposite of what was intended. It shows that it's possible to change what your current reality is, but it's not easy. It'll take years. Which might sound very discouraging to many people with anxiety or other mental illnesses. But the game says it anyways, even it might hurt, but it's still true.

My anxiety wolf is mostly scared about being harmed.

I have an innate, probably irrational dislike of strangers. I remember my mum bringing over a date and he cooked for us, and I only started eating until I saw him eating it too, so I knew it wasn't *poisoned* The second time he came over I had some anxiety attack, I moved most of my bedroom furniture to barricade my door, and spent the whole night sitting on my bed with my pocket knife out. Haven't had anything as bad as that, but I've gotten close

Anyone else notice how anxiety is represented with red, and the girl at the end gains a red bow when her anxiety takes over? Also, the two at the party with Hunter, their lips are red. Hunter’s text is all red as well. It’s subtle, but once you notice it it’s hard to ignore.

I like the message they had with everyone’s anxiety is different down to personal situation. And the statement that Hunter literally can’t talk about the elephant in the room.

"I want to be a good dog! Or perhaps a courage the cowardly dog! That's an acceptable cowardly dog!" Lmao

"okay, we're broken, let's fix it" or "okay, we're broken, let's accept it" is one of the most profound choices that I probably should have made in my 36 years on the planet. What's interesting to me is that both are OK unless you have some deep down issues that really need to be addressed. I feel that i went with the "accept it" route in my own life.

I’m a person battling with overwhelming anxiety and when the person says “You’re NOT in control of me.” Really opened my eyes on my anxiety

the ending is actually wholsome, i kinda like it. To anyone who thinks they dont deserve love, you deserve it. No matter your sexuality or race, you matter. You are amazing and unique! Well, thats all I can say now, have a wonderful day!

Really impressed that if you made a bad decision that took you down the "bad ending" it doesn't punish you for it, almost as if saying sometimes we make bad decisions but we can still get back up from it. Really nice message behind this game, I think if I had been having a bad anxiety day this would have helped

Its so impressive how quickly this game makes you change your perspective on anxiety, from the wolf trying to prevent Hong from going out and being social, to trying to keep Hong from using alcohol as a coping method, and to trying to get him to not jump off a roof. It’s also really cool how at the end the girl is convinced by her anxiety that Hong is just being nice, when we really had better intentions. It’s just really cool to think about in my opinion

I really, really love the way this is defined. It's not pure evil. it's a mixed thing, y'know? My OCD has made me probably a bit more clean than average people. However, I need to be able to function properly in the same room as people who cough or sneeze.

This unironically made me cry I think my wolf and I needa sit and talk over a cup of coffee brb

I'm not one for bad endings but I actually like "bad ending" in this game. Like it just doesn't say, "game over you got the bad ending, try again scrub." the story continues and makes the lesson/message more impactful.

Protect them from themselves "Get off of twitter!" Right answer.

Well then

This was actually a really great take. Some people’s anxiety is born from trauma, like mine. Anxious invasive thoughts and actions (don’t go out, you’re irritating them, ect) are like the adopted shelter dog that had a really shitty previous owner and reacts the only way they know how, since it’s what they did to survive. A lot of my nastier invasive anxious thoughts were because my mom is very judgmental and abrasive and screams a lot at me and the rest of my family. But my anxiety is still in survivor mode even though things are a bit better now, so it still begs me to not go out, to not waste money, to just stay safe in bed and sleep. Things are different, but the shelter dog is still in survivor mode. I’ll never get be able to get rid if my anxiety forever. Not even medication can stop it, because pills aren’t magic. But I’m slowly working on calming that fearsona down with baby steps. Like the wolf said, it’ll take a long time, but like the human said, small steps are important. I’m not better, but I’m doing way better than I was years ago when things were really bad. Thanks for playing this.

Yeah, my fam gives me extremely intense social anxiety, they would actually criticize me for every small mistake i made in front of all 13 other family members. I even reflected those negative emotion onto other member when they became vulnerable as a revenge and trying to fit in by joining the bandwagon. After when i actually try to talk and sympathize with them and use my own experience to tell them the horrible feelings i had when they do the samething to me. I connect with them better and actually help them see the negativity of the family situations. It took a long time to finally change their general behaviour and a lot of courage to ignore my anxiety (I try to do so by listening to it, write it down to organize it and do research to points out which part is irrational and makes no sense and which part is valid) They are some who's still in the gutter in my family but I'm proud to say that I've gained enough allies to be ok with myself and are capable of ignoring most social attacks through seeing them not as a person who has something against me but has something against themselves.

30:00 Healthbars: Shows up Human and Anxiety: *And we took that personally,*

All I can say that anxiety does tire out. At least since I got to 30 years it attacks much less severe than it did when I was 18. The way to deal with it is just not to fight it and not to try and fix it, cause you most defenitely will make mistakes. You need to manoeuvre around it, make sime reeeeaaally baby steps ("we will not go to the party, we will walk near the place it is once", "we will not talk to that interesting person, we will watch how they behave and talk to others", and so on), integrate and not alienate it. Take your time listening to it after stressful situation until it has nothing more to say. And after a while (QUITE a while) it will calm down. I was scared to death of parties for instance. People, sounds, movements, social activities - parties were literally hell to me. Now I can at least be there talking with some people and while I feel that my wolf is moving in my head and whispering stuff it's not screaming and frightening me with (im)possible futures. It knows that I will listen to it after party and that if all hell will break loose I will give it enough control to get me out of there ASAP.

As someone with anxiety, I can confirm this is accurate, oh! This is also relatable to depression

"We almost jumped the roof" - "meh, happens" It almost reminds me my friend's quote: "Some people fall in love, some people fall from the second floor..."

I have anxiety and this is literally what it feels like every time I try to make a decision. I'm in grade 10 and I still struggle to ask for help. I've deleted hundreds of comments I was going to make. I give up on things because I'm worried someone's gonna scream at me.

This game actually deserves more recognition, the way of it putting information of correct way of solving your anxiety, being in harmony with your own emotions without it being just straight boring lesson, but actually emotion creating experience with a lot of effort.

The using alcohol to escape the anxiety really stuck with me….I’ve suffered from HORRIBLE anxiety, OCD, and CPTSD for nearly two decades. The way I coped with it was excessively drinking every weekend and even eventually drinking every night. I was 14 when I started stealing alcohol. It wasn’t until I almost took my life two years ago after a really bad fight with my (now ex) girlfriend and drinking a butt load, that I quit cold Turkey for almost 6 months. Only recently have I been able to have a couple of drinks every so often without feeling like I’m using it as a scapegoat. This game really represents anxiety so well and I just wish I could play it completely blind, but I’m glad I got to watch this video

I gotta say, I've never hated my anxiety. Even when I've seen it as a monster, it's always been a frail one.

I really just wanted to support him and be his knight in shining armor or well- gaurd dog but in a way while its nice to support others, you just end up hurting the both of you. Being a yes man may as well be the same as the wolf who always says no. Its not always something you live for, but its definitely something you live with and learn how to live with. Him and I, I guess had a long time cuddling after this and talking and I guess I just wanted to say, thank you. We’re not perfect we’re young sure, but so long as I can help others in a way that isn harmful to none I’ll be thanking all. Its just a game but its a good one and- yeah- im just rambling at this point lmao

As someone who went and had a breakdown a few weeks ago at work and everyone saw it, I get it. I really, really do. The worst thing it that because anxiety is so all-consuming, it also becomes so much harder to recognise a momemt when you're feeling happy too because just thinking about it can make you feel anxiety over the next time you might start feeling anxiety. The best thing to do, I find, is to try and think of any little moment of happiness or success you've experienced in the past, no matter how far back. Just pick something simple like, I dunno, that time you received a random compliment, or maybe you thought of something cool and creative once, or you enjoyed some nice food, or you randomly came across a good song-- and then just remember that a moment like that can happen to you again at practically any time. It doesn't necessarily prevent breakdowns, but it can help you to work your way down from one and encourage you to keep going afterwards, mostly because it frames the world as more than just a constant series of disasters waiting to happen.

This and Celeste did a good job with how handling difficult emotions can be handled. They are their own coping mechanisms we made to protect ourselves. Silencing and hating them is in turn hurt ourselves. These emotions grow with us and we can’t get rid of them. But if we really listen and take care of them, we can start learning how to better use them. When they are and are not useful. And thank them for existing to try to protect us. And learn that every thought and feeling isn’t always reality.
