How do you experience anxiety?

Almost I’d say 50% of my anxiety is paranoia based for the most part. Usually it’s not normal anxiety it’s almost always about something that’s rooted sort of not in reality. And then it kind of spirals into delusional thinking, I don’t want to say full on delusions because I don’t think it’s ever that intense but my thinking stops being completely rooted in reality if that makes sense.

Sure I have situational anxiety and sometimes just anxiety that’s just low level dread that comes out of nowhere and it’s attached to anything. But the other times it’s paranoia based. And my social anxiety is also paranoia based but I don’t know if that’s standard for all people who are socially anxious too. How do you guys experience anxiety?
