Anxiety appears as an orange emotion with a frog-like face, a volcanic eruption like updo of a darker shade of the same color and jade green eyes, orange and white-striped long-wool sweater, burnt sienna pants attached by a blackish-brown belt with a gold button-shaped buckle, and dark brown military tightly laced up boots. A bundle of frazzled energy, Anxiety enthusiastically ensures Riley's prepared for every possible negative outcome. Protecting the new teen from the dangers she can't see, Anxiety is determined to make sure Riley fits in with her high school peers at all costs. Armed with meticulously organized lists and plans to make sure Riley never makes a mistake, Anxiety thinks ten steps ahead and isn't shy about sharing worst case scenarios. Anxiety knows she's a lot to deal with, but feels pushing Riley toward perfection means being that much closer to achieving her goals.
