Uth is a small planet with a very big feeling: anxiety. Sometimes it feels like his worries are spinning out of orbit — too many thoughts, too fast, all at once. Uth doesn’t know how to make it stop… until three unexpected visitors arrive to help.

A calm cave painter teaches Uth how to slow down and express his feelings through art. A wise fish shows him how to breathe deeply and ride the waves of his thoughts. And a kind farming mushroom helps Uth create simple routines that make each day feel a little more manageable.

Through gentle lessons and quiet discoveries, Uth learns that anxiety doesn’t have to control him — and that with the right tools, support, and self-understanding, he can feel safe, strong, and whole.

I Have Anxiety is a heartfelt, hopeful story for children learning to understand and manage big emotions — with the comforting reminder that they’re never alone.

The community is vibrant, welcoming, and full of curiosity — people of all ages stop by to connect, share stories, and talk about their own experiences with emotions like anxiety.
