This song is so comforting , there has never been a song that explains how anxiety feels in my mind, as well as overstimulation and it genuinely makes me feel a little less lonely in this world

[@elvickRULES]

“I should be fine. But I’m not.” That’s the worst part of having anxiety. You know it’s ridiculous and irrational, but you can’t stop it. It’s just there. It’s hard for people to understand. I remember telling my now husband that my anxiety was irrational and he was confused how I could know that but still be impacted by it. He’s very understanding and has read some books and watched some lectures about anxiety to understand it better.

[@circusbysilk]

@MonoMoonShade ohww be careful ❤️ you think it might be disordered eating? Cause that's bad for your whole system on itself but also that way you've a big change of developing an ED. It is that one thing ppl always say: ohwww I would never get an ED, and then ppl caught themselves in something like it. So pls be careful, better safe then sorry ❤️🙏 I can for example highly recommend Abbey Sharp her video's, she's amazing and knows how to get a healthy relationship with food.

[@edwinwarner591]

When people say that music videos is art, this is what they mean. Love the simplicity, love the metaphors.

[@youraverageartist1588]

I feel like the beat represents the buildup to an anxiety attack. The beat gets faster and more intense as they sing about being overwhelmed, and then when the beat drops into the wild electric music, that represents the anxiety attack. Then everything is calm and back to normal. You realize that everything around you isn’t any different. These attacks normally aren’t very physical, they happen in your head, although it doesn’t always show to the outside.

[@thepowerofpurposefulplay6084]

And what seems to be monotonous repetition in the chorus is actually filled with multiple melodies...seems so simple and straightforward on one note, but it's not.

[@maleeha896]

I love how each time they sing the chorus the beat get a bit louder. To me this represents each time I have an attack and it gets worse each time or harder for me to control

[@Laura-nr8dn]

Anxiety is physical too. Your heart races, it's more difficult to breathe, you shake, your senses don't work properly. It's a physical thing and when you need to stop an anxiety attack, you gotta calm your body first.

[@bruhbruh9715]

I feel like that analysis is great, and how this is a great representation of how people with anxiety, usually act. It's not a mental illness but rather a mental state and how you tap into it at moments, never knowing when it happens, while waiting to calm down. It can affect you physically, psychologically, mentally, and behavioral problems. This song's title "Overwhelmed" can be symbolized in many different interpretations, but the general assumption/definition is the state of being overworked, and when you see what the song's general meaning is, you start to understand the title, as that is the most likely reason why the artist or lyrics writer wrote those lyrics. The context in the lyrics also states the severity of the situation it is, and how people who haven't experienced the constant emotions flooding. For instance, in the beginning when the T.V. turned on the lyrics played like this," Turn off the TV It's starting to freak me Out it's so loud It's like my ears are bleeding" followed by "What am I feeling? Can't look at the ceiling The light is so bright It's like I'm overheating". Because of these lyrics, in the beginning, we know that the person didn't know this was coming, and it came out of nowhere. Overall, the message Royal & The Serpent display is one of the problems that your friend or family member might have.

[@clementine-8263]

I like your analysis :D Some attacks also are physical, to me they are definitely the worst... not only you loose the control of your mind but also of your body.. and people outside can see it

[@reynaaxx]

"This mind isn't mine" this lyric really got me. It's so true, anxiety isn't who we are. It's just like any other illness. It seeps into our bodies and minds in a way that makes life so much harder than it should be.

[@imaanahmed4965]

Right 💔

[@mistyslade1]

My mind takes control of my body and makes me do horrible things

[@natlariviere8256]

I got to this comment and read it literally as the lyrics were sung and it's freaking me out a little

[@taylahstarland6030]

I totally agree, at this point in my life, I have no fricken idea who I am anymore. I can feel myself slipping away, my best friend has noticed and she is keeping an eye out for me, she is very worried, I’ve told her how I’ve feeling, she said it might be a faze, but she is still keeping me in check. But when I told anyone else, no one would believe me, and I’m so scared to say. I’m so glad I found this song, now I’ve found people that feel what I feel and that makes me feel better! ❤️ Ps: When I tell people about this they are like “are you going crazy?” And I’m like “no, I’m not! This is just how I feel!”

[@maithilikmk8325]

At the point when i have anxiety attack I have no idea what's happening...i feel to laugh out loud and cry at same time...overstimulation and just want to idk it's such a different feeling... it's not what I am ....since I got anxiety I lost touch of the old me...

Can't look at the ceiling The light is so bright It's like I'm over heating This mind isn't mine Who am I to judge? Oh I should be fine But it's all too much Chorus: I get overwhelmed So easily My anxiety creeps inside of me Makes it hard to breathe Words come over me Feels like I'm somebody else I get overwhelmed So easily My anxiety Keeps me silent when I try to speak Words come over me Feels like I'm somebody else I get overwhelmed Verse 2: All of these faces Who don't know what space is And crowds are shut down I'm over stimulated Nobody gets it They say I'm too sensitive I can't listen cause I'm eyeing the exits Chorus: This mind isn't mine Who am I to judge? Oh I should be fine. But it's all too much. I get overwhelmed so easily My anxiety creeps inside of me Makes it hard to breathe Words come over me Feels like I'm somebody else I get overwhelmed so easily My anxiety keeps me silent When I try to speak Words come over me Feels like I'm somebody else I get overwhelmed Verses 3: I should be fine But it's all too much I should be fine But I'm not. Chorus: I get overwhelmed So easily my anxiety Creeps inside of me Makes it hard to breathe Words come over me Feels like I'm somebody else I get overwhelmed So easily Keeps me silent Words come over me Feels like I'm somebody else I get overwhelmed.

I can't even tell you how many times I've destroyed my belongings in a fit of rage induced by being overwhelmed without a way to release it without appearing like a crazy person in public, which, stresses me out more, so I'd bury it deep until I'm alone, then I explode. I eventually started aiming my explosions at things I couldn't easy destroy. Then I needed to start wearing gloves since my hands were now destroyed instead. I'm mostly better now.

[@leafyveins4985]

I'm 28 and I've known about my anxiety since I was 8. This is the first song I've ever heard that really captures what it feels like. For me, it's never gone away. It's a part of who I am, for whatever reason. Perhaps an evolutionary response to a threat that isn't there? I go to therapy, I take my medications and I'm starting to explore more methods like meditation, eating much healthier, drinking a lot more water, exercising, etc. All of these things help a lot. I can't erase my anxiety but I can be stronger than it, I can work around it. I'm happy to say I haven't had a true panic attack in over a year, something I never, ever thought would be possible. I had just accepted that was my life: panic attacks every day or multiple times a day. Frozen. Silent. I will never stop trying to work around my anxiety. It also helps to listen to your anxiety, as strange as that sounds. To ask it questions like, "What are you really upset about? Is it that person standing too close, can you do something about it? If you can't, can you breathe slowly and deeply and try some grounding exercises? If that doesn't work, can you try to drink some water to occupy your mind in this moment, focusing on nothing else but the water? You can do this. I believe in you." And, as juvenile as it sounds, I speak to my anxiety as if it were a child. In a good way. I don't think of my anxiety as some monster in the closet. It's just a chemical imbalance that believes it's helping me stay safe. I explain what reality is to my anxiety and comfort it the same way I would my own child. If my anxiety is here to stay, then we better get used to each other. I can't walk around hating that part of myself because it doesn't make the anxiety go away, it makes it worse. Don't give up. You are worthwhile. You can go lengths of time without having a panic attack or feeling any anxiety at all. You can. It's possible, I promise you. I have seen it, felt it. It won't always feel this way, I promise. You're doing amazing sweetie ❤

I pray you can overcome this. I struggled with severe depression and anxiety from i was 8 years old, and Jesus Christ set me free, the devil wants to keep us in this stronghold and even uses disbelief i can only thank God, i did therapy i tried everything, even tried to take my own life many times, at least pray about it and ask God to reveal himself and help you in this area, this song literally describes how I felt for so long and I can’t believe so many people feel the same way, I am praying for you all❤️🙌🏾

I heard this song first on the radio, coming home from therapy. I just immediately thought "that's it. Those are the words that explain how I'm feeling. And then i promptly forgot the song existed. As I do with most things. Heard it again a few weeks later and actually wrote down the name of the song.i would not forget. I swear I listened to it on repeat for hours. I would get up in the middle of the night and dance to it, partly out of boredom, partly out of the intense need to express myself. And I somehow ended up with something very close to this video. Smooth and flowy at the start, than kinda panicked, then disjointed before getting completely crased. The movement just fits the song so well

the fact that I played this song mid dissociation helped me calm down so fast,,,, it's astonishing. For context, I was experiencing a rlly bad episode/case of sensory overload cause I (by myself) was in a crowded and loud area for the first time in months. Overall had just a shit ton of stimulus thrown at me. When I rushed home I just... calmed down by playing this song. Definitely starting a de-escalation playlist with this song bc by gods does it help when I'm overstimulated I love this song so much oml, keep up the amazing work!!!!

[@SnapesWife21]

I love this song soooo much and it's so true about anxiety

[@giordy9013]

At least music deals with anxiety in a way that everybody can understand, without the hypocrisy many still faces being told "just chill"

[@SoApparentlyINeedAHandle]

I remember listening to this song when it was trending on TikTok because I liked it but now listening to it again, I’ve never realized how much this song resonates with me. I went through something that I don’t want to again before listening to this so I don’t know how I didn’t hear it earlier, maybe it’s because I’m older and have a greater understanding of myself but I do now. It’s also probably mainly about anxiety (Which I do have) but it also sounds so much to me like sensory issues, which is something I have recently learned I probably have. This perfectly encapsulates how I feel sometimes, anxiety and sensory wise.
