the 7 levels of anxiety according to mom
While mom understood my anxiety she discouraged me to awfulise any situation stage 1 was tizzy level–all attacks no matter how bad should stay here. However if I should escalate here are the other levels that worsen by degree.
2. lather-solved by a dousing of cold water to chill me out–it worked -it just pissed me off.
3 dither-time to call the doc and ask advice
4. hissyfit–crisis unit at the hospital
5 conniption-lock down unit-with nice meds
6.melt down–padded cell with straight jacket and nice meds
7. thermo-nuclear melt down-ever one else needed to put their heads between their legs and kiss their butts good bye as all hope of recovery was lost.
