I have severe anxiety. If my anxiety had a personality, it would definitely be Zenitsu from Demon Slayer.
The sheer terror that follows Zenitsu is parallel to my anxiety. Unlike Zenitsu, I am able to pretend that nothing bothers me, however, inside I am a hot mess.
Basassery. On the flipside, Zenitsu is able to still be a complete badass. Sure, he might have to pass out to get there, but he’s still a badass. I’d like to think despite my crippling anxiety, I do a good job a) hiding it; and b) excelling at whatever it is I am afraid to do.
Loyalty that knows no bounds. In addition, Zenitsu is loyal AF. He is a loyal friend to Tanjiro and Inosuke and a loyal “son” to the former Thunder Hashira, Jiguro. Despite my anxiety, I would like to think that I display the same level of loyalty to those I love.
Loves with his entire being. Zenitsu has so much love to give. When he sees Nezuko, he immediately falls in love and would do just as much as Tanjiro to protect her. Despite my crippling anxiety, I can relate to Zenitsu. I love my husband deeply. I would do anything for him.
In conclusion, it is safe to say that Zenitsu and I have a lot in common and if my anxiety were to manifest into a person, Zenitsu is my man.
