"My name is Twilight Sparkle, and I have anxiety."

"Hi Twilight." The group of ponies responded.

"Where should I start? Well, I guess my anxiety mostly comes from time. I always feel like I have something to do, and I can't miss anything. I feel worried that I'll miss something important if i don't schedule it, plan every little detail, and then spend every waking minute thinking about it until it happens. I get nervous, like if i miss one little detail I won't have time to fix it. I feel scared that I can't do everything to completion, and that I'll let ponies down."

"That's very good, Twilight. The first step is admitting you have a problem. Now when did this start for you?"

"I don't know. I guess when I was a filly. I was accepted into Celestia's School for gifted Unicorns. They had a very strict timeline that you needed to follow. It might have just been the professors I got, but if I was even one minute late to the class I would receive a failing grade for that day, and I wouldn't be allowed in the classroom. It grew to a point where I'd show up almost an hour early to everything, and it just continued to grow from there. I needed to have everything planned out to the exact minute."

"Very well. I think I'd like to speak with you personally. How does next Thursday sound?"

"What time?"

"I'm free all day, whatever time is most convenient for you."

"That's a lame answer. Really. I have an appointment at eight with the dentist, and that could take anywhere between thirty minutes to three hours depending what they find, then I need to meet with Cherilee for a bit about the upcoming field trip to the library, then I have to meet Pinkie Pie and she's a DISASTER to schedual times with, and... and..."

"How does four o'clock sound?"

"Fine. I'll see you then."

"Good, now, lets move on to-"

"But where will we meet?"

The therapist sighed and facehoofed.

Author's Note

In which Twilight learns the value of letting loose and realizing that not everything is going to work out perfectly. Not my best chapter, but I like it.

99/100

The finale will be posted right after this one.
