Why High-Functioning Anxiety Is Exhausting (Even When You’re “Successful”)

High-functioning anxiety isn’t just stress, it’s your nervous system still bracing for something to go wrong.

On the outside? You’re organized, responsible, always on top of things.
But inside? You’re tense, hyper-aware, and constantly replaying mistakes.

This video explains why high-functioning anxiety is more than a mindset issue. It’s a somatic response rooted in past experiences, often from childhood, where being perfect felt like the only way to stay safe.

We’ll cover:
• What high-functioning anxiety really looks like in everyday life
• Why it often gets misdiagnosed as drive, discipline, or ambition
• The link between perfectionism, fear, and nervous system dysregulation
• How healing starts with safety, not just mindset work
