Zayn Malik’s anxiety seems to be worsening. The former One Direction singer is depending on Gigi Hadid a lot these days, as his anxiety seems to be spiraling out of control. Gigi and Zayn were spotted together in New York as he supports Gigi’s runway triumphs at Fashion Week. He was literally ducking behind Miss Hadid and clinging to her as they walked on the New York Streets, according to reports by the Daily Mail . His body language seemed extremely insecure and full of anxiety.
Gigi Hadid continues to support her handsome boyfriend as he struggles to maintain his composure amid what appears to be deep emotional anxiety. Her strength in this situation is certainly admirable as Malik wrestles with issues he only reveals to her. While the public is aware of Zayn’s deep anxiety issues, Gigi alone knows the depths of whatever he is going through.
Zayn Malik’s anxiety has forced him to cancel several concerts, including a huge stadium show in Dubai. He posted this message to his fans, as quoted in People , assuring them they would receive refunds, but that Zayn simply could not face a large crowd like the one at the Dubai show because of his anxiety.
“Dear fans, I have been working over the last three months to overcome my extreme anxiety around major live solo performances. I feel I am making progress but I have today acknowledged that I do not feel sufficiently confident to move forward with the planned show in Dubai in October.”
Gigi Hadid had obligations in New York, for Fashion Week, and brought her shy beau with her. Zayn is obviously going through something really painful, and so Gigi is always there for him.
Zayn Malik’s anxiety is forcing him to cancel a lot of shows, so Malik may move into TV as a way to deal with his intense stress which seems to be aggravated by public performances. Malik is the co-producer of a new series called Boys . The show is about a boy band, loosely patterned on One Direction. Mr. Malik’s duty is to ensure the accuracy of the show, and let writers know exactly what being in a boy band is like , as detailed by the Inquisitr .
Gigi Hadid kept Zayn Malik’s anxiety down, by keeping him as close as possible, though, of course, she could not take him down the runway or in the dressing rooms with her. She has tried virtually everything, from taking Zayn on a canoe voyage to face his fear of the water, as described in the Inquisitr , to taking him with her on a very busy and important week for her. She doesn’t mind, because the couple is so obviously in love.

Zayn Malik and Gigi Hadid are very serious about their relationship, but they are struggling to deal with Zayn’s anxiety. What started as perfectly understandable stage fright at huge events is apparently escalating and he has never felt truly secure , according to Daily Mail . Now Malik seems very uncomfortable on city streets.
“I just don’t have it in me to feel fully secure in anything I do. I always strive towards something better. It’s why I think sometimes I come across the wrong way, a bit distant. I’m just stressed out trying to control how I’m perceived. I think about things a lot.”
Zayn Malik’s anxiety is apparently very powerful, but his love for Gigi Hadid and her powerful support are keeping him going.
