Create Anxiety
Anxiety-driven content isn't about making people panic.
It's to wake them up with a truth that's been quietly eating away at their future.
It's not about fear for fear's sake. It's about using discomfort as a catalyst for action.
💡 Start by revealing what's already broken:
- What's the hidden consequence of their daily habit?
- What's the thing people are avoiding that's slowly stealing their time, money, or peace of mind?
- What will hurt them not now, but 3 years from now if they don't change today?
- What's the mistake everyone makes—and regrets too late?
💡 Best formats:
- Hook-heavy short
- Black screen with alarming stats
- Quiet narration with rising tension
- "This is why your 20s disappear..."
