Symptoms of Being Human
            She sits back against the wall and says, "All right. Teach me stuff about things." ARC pg. 78
So, first, I want you to know that everybody experiences some level of anxiety. It's a normal human response to stress. It's like your body's smoke alarm. If there's a fire, you want to know so you can put it out or call 911, right?" 

I shrug. "I guess. But it feels like my alarm is going off al the time." 


Doctor Ann nods. "Some people's systems are more sensitive than others'. For you, maybe all it takes is burning a piece of toast, and your alarm thinks the house is on fire.” ARC pg. 109

This book was fantastic. And the anxiety analogy was SPOT ON. This book. THIS BOOK. *sighs* just so good.
