The Hidden Cost of High Performance: High-Functioning Anxiety

Recognizing the signs of burnout before you hit the wall.

Are you the "organized one" who is secretly spiraling? High-functioning anxiety is the ultimate chameleon. On the outside, you are hitting goals and checking boxes. On the inside, your heart is racing and you are waiting for the other shoe to drop. You aren't "driven" you are anxious.

The "Tired but Wired" Cycle

High-achievers often wear their stress as a badge of honor, but this internal experience is often one of constant worry and fear of failure. Shifting the focus from "doing more" to "functioning better" is essential. Psychiatric support can help you maintain your excellence while lowering the internal volume of your anxiety.
