I too have GAD.It seems to me to be a Mountain of Anxious Moments
that happened over my lifetime up to this moment in time,held on to by my Subconcious.
I have been down all the mentioned Roads........Alcoholic..Drank for 25 years........Tranqualiser Addict..Took Pills for 25 years as well. I Was locked up In Mental Hospitals 15 Times.
I was never a bad person.......Just Suffered from Panic,Tention,Anger,Rage,.....all under the Banner of Anxiety.
I have attended AA,NA,Tranx Release,Grow,CR, and now ACA,Between them Clocking up, over 30 years of Therapy and Meetings.
Its ACA that has Pointed the Finger at what happened to me.........
Notice what I have Said,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,>Happened to me.
I did not Cause.......so no more Blameing Myself.
Best of Luck to all seeking Recovery......Its Slow I find.
