Sorry to know it is part of yours.

Perhaps checking with a doctor about anxiety
would be a wise move. We also have a forum
that you might find helpful.

Congratulations on your progress ..
despite these additional difficulties.
I've already been diagnosed, actually. Depression and Anxiety. I take prozac, which helps, but it doesn't fix the whole thing. Alot of it is just upbringing (neurosis + high intelligence = pretty lousy mom), and I've been working through it for years. Thanks for the help, tho.
