Fluttershy has always been grateful for what she has, but often feels the weight of her shyness and anxiety. She fights every day to deal with her problems, but there are some battles you just can't fight alone. It takes the help of a certain somepony to realize that, no matter what, you never have to be alone when you struggle.

This is the story of Midnight Premiere, a Thestral that writes plays but stays out of the spotlight. With social anxiety, he doesn't really know many ponies personally. One that knows him, a very hyperactive mare, may be able to change that for him on one Hearts and Hooves Day...

Twilight Sparkle is the Princess of Friendship. She is loved by her friends, family and Equestria beyond. She embodies the very essence of Friendship and shares its virtues across the land.

Twilight Sparkle has been having nightmares recently. She cannot sleep - actions taken, many moons ago, has shaken the Princess of Friendship’s belief in herself and her title.

Pinkie Pie is a baker, a party-planner and the best-liked mare in Ponyville. She is loved by her friends and family. Rarely she is seen without a smile on her face and a bounce in her step.

Pinkie Pie has been seen less and less these days. She cannot bare the thought of facing the world. Something she did, many moons ago, has cast doubts on the party-pony on who she really is.

What Spike saw in the doorway of King Sombra's crystal palace hasn't left his mind. The fear of Twilight abandoning him haunts him through recurrent nightmares. Anxiety taunts him when he's at his most vulnerable, reminding him of all his failures, all his inadequacies, all his wounds.

One night, this fear and anxiety manifests itself in a full-blown nightmare, dragging Spike face-to-face with his greatest fear. What if Twilight never needed Spike in the first place?

Takes place right after the Season Three opener (before Episode Three).

Rated Teen for some dark elements.

Princess Luna slips through the dreams of her subjects, helping them conquer their fears and anxieties in any way she can.

But its a thankless task... one that often leaves Luna filled with the old bitterness she once felt before her banishment. The bitterness begins to take hold until, one night, she stumbles upon a pony who dreams exclusively of her... Perhaps her task wasn't as unappreciated as she thought.

Pinkie has a very creative mind and she is not afraid to use it. She's glad she got a friend waiting for her at home to share her thoughts with. After all, we all need that special friend that we really connect with, and Pinkie needs it more than anyone else, but this is a very special friend of hers.

After a month Twilight finds herself alone at night. Her worries begin with the fear of losing her mother, but it only gets worse when she starts fearing that she herself, might have a panic attack. This story tells my side of anxiety and how it actually feels when you are stuck in fear. It also explains the battle you face when you try to keep calm. Death sensations, panic attacks and even suicide thoughts is what you can go through. Everything might seem hopeless, but as this story tells; there is always a glimpse of hope.
