How I Portrayed My Anxiety Using A Doll

ADVERTISEMENT

Hi, I am a Delhi, India based photographer and created this photography project to portray the anxiety using a doll.

Anxiety Disorder is a medical condition in which the person always feels frightened and worried; with or without any reason.

Globally, 1 out of every 13 individual suffers from anxiety and only a few are aware of their condition and even fewer get any help.

Through the following photographs and text,I will be giving you sneak peek into the daily life of a person suffering from anxiety through a doll.

During an anxiety disorder, we feel a lot of things, some feeling we can’t explain and some we can. Here are some of the prominent feelings.

More info: Instagram

“It’s like there are two voices inside your head, with totally different opinions”

“Your mind is constantly racing too fast and your body tries to keep up with it; you always feel exhausted”

“Feels like breathing through a tea stirrer. There’s a whirlpool inside your stomach, slowly swallowing you in”

ADVERTISEMENT

“You feel like you’re stuck in quicksand or tar and cannot get out, even though you have dreams and aspirations”

ADVERTISEMENT

“You want to be alone but you also feel lonely at the same time”

“You never have clarity of what is happening or what you want to do in a particular situation”

ADVERTISEMENT

“No matter how much you accomplish, you will never be good enough”

ADVERTISEMENT

“One-moment anxiety skyrockets and the next moment depression hit you in your face”

“It feels like you’re going to explode but you don’t. After some time you want yourself to explode just to end this feeling”

This is a very accurate and sad account of anxiety. When those feelings come it is difficult to see anything else except those raw emotions and fears that overwhelm you. Just remember that you are not alone.
