Although anxiety can feel lonely, in this situation it forms a bond! Our community is a place where ideas, anxieties, and restless energy are converted into knowledge.
The basic fact that having worry frequently feels like having an echo led to the founding of Tension & Thread. Worries mount, thoughts recur, and even seemingly insignificant decisions can feel burdensome. Anxiety was more than simply a barrier for our founder, Angie; it was a persistent companion that insisted on being recognized rather than disregarded. That insight led to the creation of Tension & Thread. We don't pretend to have remedies, and we're not a clinic. We function as a community instead, a mirror where people may see their fears mirrored in literature, art, and stories. What is typically concealed becomes apparent. What is solitary becomes communal. Our goal is to turn worry from a personal burden into an opportunity for creativity and connection.
We investigate how worry affects our inner lives through journals, group discussions, and an expanding collection of individual perspectives.We think that courage may be found in fear, and that resilience can be found in restlessness. At Tension & Thread, we guarantee recognition rather than tranquility. Because often the first step to strength is just realizing that you are not alone in your anxieties.
