Gonna keep this brief.  I’ve suffered from anxiety my whole life, but finally started taking it seriously about 5 years ago.  I’ve seen my PCP, then a few therapists, a career counselor, and finally a psychiatrist.  I’ve taken multiple medications, and spent more money than I care to share.  

My anxiety isn’t dire, or something that would require inpatient treatment.  BUT, it does seriously impact my life, and co-exists with and contributes to a few other things (depression, OCD, BDD, bulimia). 

I’m definitely not any better now, but I’m not worse. I’m not taking any medications at this time, and stopped seeing my psychiatrist (after not experiencing significant benefit from 6+ diff meds).  I’m also scheduled for my last session with my therapist/ psychologist this week.  

I’ve made the decision that I don’t want to waste my money anymore.  I don’t want to say I’ve given up, but .... I guess I have.  

Gonna try to do my best on my own.  Hoping it goes okay
