The nervous impatience experienced when waiting for a parcel or package you've ordered to be delivered. Often accompanied by frequent glances at the front door for signs of the courier driver when you hear any audible or visual queues of their presence. Generally the level of pre-parcel anxiety is highly correlated with either the monetary, sentimental or hype-based value placed on the package being delivered.
"After my package wasn't delivered yesterday I've got serious pre-parcel anxiety!"
"10:43am: My package hasn't arrived yet! the courier better not have stole it!"

The tension felt in the few seconds after launching a bird in Angry Birds where you don't know if the bird will connect with a precise spot on a target to get you 3 stars in a specific level. Most of the time Angry Birds anxiety is followed by an immense feeling of frustration.
Yo, man!! Why are you tensing up every time you tap your iphone screen??

When you are in a state where, like the fruit taste in La Croix , your anxiety is there there, but not quite a nameable feeling, nor can you truly feel it.

Social anxiety is the fear of being rejected, or made fun of by peers or by those who dont know you. Only those who have personally experienced its horrors can truly atest to the stupifying affect that it has on the person. It makes the person feel like they are at the center of attention in any social situation, thereby making them feel like they must perform under everyday situations. What those of us with S.A.D fail to realize is that most of our horrors come from our overexageration and our faulty ideas that usually are real. Most situations we stress over either dont exist, wont happen, could happend and if it did happen would be as bad as we think it would be. To everyone suffering from this condition i would say keep in mind that most of those negative thoughts we feel about ourselves arent true.

Also know as re-entry anxiety.
The thought of going back to our old filthy, pre-COVID-19 habits is giving me re-opening anxiety. Puleeeaaasseee let's at least not go back to the unsanitary, nasty habit of shaking hands!
