If you’ve ever found yourself frozen in a grocery store aisle, overthinking whether to grab almond or soy milk—and walked out with neither—you’re not alone. Anxiety messes with our heads in ways we don’t always recognize until we’re knee-deep in hesitation.

When you’re living with chronic back pain, motivation doesn’t exactly show up with coffee in the morning.

Not gonna lie—I’ve been that person, scrolling through emails or binge-watching videos on night shift mode at 2 AM, only to suddenly notice those annoying little shadowy specks floating across my vision.
