So, I've had GAD since puberty it seems, but only in the last year was it diagnosed. Seems you really have to hit rock bottom before people stand up and take notice. I think I'm at least as much to blame as any of the health care professionals, because I kept burying it and putting on that 'Everything's alright face'.
I'm coming up to 50 this year and going through several things in my life that seem to relish playing with my constant companion - anxiety.
Do we really have to look forward to living our entire lives in fight or flight mode, and getting this anxious about everything?
