It's "Just" Anxiety

About This Movie

So, 'Just' Anxiety is this documentary from 2017 that dives into the lives of a dozen folks dealing with anxiety. It's not flashy or overproduced, but that's kind of its charm. The tone feels very raw and authentic. You get this sense of intimacy as these individuals share their experiences, ranging from the more mundane worries to those extreme moments that are hard to articulate. The pacing is a bit uneven, which I think actually mirrors the unpredictability of anxiety itself. It’s really interesting how the filmmakers managed to capture the real struggles without sensationalizing them. The practicality of their storytelling is what stands out—no gimmicks, just real people opening up about their lives.
