The Moment Workplace Anxiety Turns to Relief

A recent social media video shared by a Canadian user, "Teray 🇨🇦" (moderatelycomfy), has captured the relatable experience of workplace anxiety and its sudden dissipation. The video, uploaded on June 17, 2025, shows the user's initial reaction to a message from her boss requesting a 10 to 15-minute chat. Her expression visibly shifts to one of concern and immediate "spiraling" as she anticipates negative outcomes. However, a follow-up message from her boss quickly clarified the purpose of the meeting: "It's about taking part in the Education Committee." Upon reading this, the user's face transforms from worry to a clear smile, indicating that her "catastrophic thinking disengaged." The video, set to a contrasting soundtrack that matches her emotional shifts, highlights the common phenomenon of overthinking workplace communications. While a personal anecdote, it resonates with many who have experienced similar anxieties in their professional lives.
