Anxiety is the second album by the alternative rock/post-grunge music group Smile Empty Soul. The album was scheduled to be released in the fall of 2005 via Lava Records, but after numerous push-backs the label scrapped the album and Smile Empty Soul departed. Though Lava chose not to release the album, they would not allow the band to on their own, as they owned the rights to the music. In 2008, the band was to finally able to officially release Anxiety through their own label, MRAfia Records.

The song "Don't Need You" peaked at #37 on the Billboard Mainstream Rock Tracks chart.
