Anxiety's like a rocking chair. It gives you something to do

Summary

This quote means that anxiety can be constant and consuming, but it ultimately doesn't lead to any productive or meaningful progress. Just like a rocking chair, it may keep a person occupied and give an illusion of doing something, but it doesn't result in any substantial forward movement. It suggests that anxiety is a futile endeavor that offers no real solutions or benefits, encouraging individuals to find healthier and more effective ways to address and overcome their anxieties.
