Thanks all, thanks CW. The anxiety is difficult to manage, but I'm doing the right things, and I hope it may yet improve. I just seem to be on edge all the time, it's tiresome. I broke down in a flood of tears at a friend's yesterday as I was all het up about new neighbours moving in next door and what they might be like, will they be noisy etc. I value my little house and the quiet. I can't cope with noise, the busyness and socializing of neighbours. I worry about my age and possible coming ill health; I lament not taking care of myself. I just worry! My friend was supportive and got me laughing and that helped. Each of us has our struggles. Why make it worse with the ill effects of alcohol?
Love to all.
