Ladder anxiety is a fear or anxiety that has been coined by the starcraft community. This is anxiety that comes with laddering in starcraft 2. Starcraft is a intense multiplayer game. Many people would be surprised that a video game could cause this much stress. Personally my heart races and my figures star moving after then my mind. For ideal APM or actions per minute your fingers need a rhythm. They need to not move faster then the game allows. I warp in units too fast selecting units and deselecting warpgates making my attacks or defense awkward. I slip in macro and don't make enough workers, production structures and upgrades. When i can get into a zen mindset of inner calm then my play is pretty good. Anxiety is something I always struggle with and competitive games can bring out bad anxiety. 0_o
