Letting go

This is an animation about something many of us live with every day. I wrote it because it's a feeling I know, and a story I felt needed to be told.  It's a very personal and gentle look at what it's like to live with persistent anxiety and those overwhelming intrusive thoughts that just won't let up. I wanted to capture how intense and constant that internal experience can feel, and how deeply it can affect the simple moments of our everyday lives.
At its core, it's a message I really hope resonates with anyone who might be struggling: you are not alone in this. The journey can be incredibly exhausting, but the film is also about the quiet, brave act of reaching out. It's about acknowledging that struggle, both in ourselves and in others, and showing that accepting help isn't a sign of weakness—it's a powerful, courageous first step toward finding a little more peace and relief.

When I created this animation, I wanted you to know that you are not alone. If you’ve ever felt that knot in your stomach or that constant worry in the back of your mind, this was made for you. I hope it helps you recognize those feelings for what they are—and, most importantly, reminds you that there is absolutely nothing to be embarrassed about. We all need a little help sometimes, and the bravest thing you can do is talk to a trusted adult. You deserve that support.
