A lot of people are walking around right now feeling tense, exhausted, and constantly “on.” Not because they’re dramatic or incapable, but because the world has been loud, heavy, and relentless. When everything feels urgent, uncertain, or out of your control, your nervous system stays in survival mode longer than it was ever meant to.
High functioning anxiety can look like productivity, success, and keeping it together on the outside while your body is running on fumes underneath. That doesn’t mean anything is wrong with you. It means your system has been working overtime to keep you safe.
At Strive, we help people slow things down, reset their nervous systems, and find steadiness again even when life doesn’t magically calm down. Support isn’t a weakness. It’s a response to the reality we’re living in.
