Newbie, but a longtime member of anxiety…

[Debra Pasquella]

Hi everyone,

Not sure how this site works, but I just joined today looking to relate to others who suffer from anxiety and depression. I've had anxiety ever since I was 16, and periodically go through phases of agoraphobia. I usually nip it in the bud before it gets bad. But lately, circumstantial events have led me to another bout of anxiety and depressive episodes…much worse than I have ever anticipated.

Thanks! Hope to connect…

P.S. I'm using my Facebook to log in because it's just easier than remember yet another password, but will this display my full name and if so, can I change that? Any advice? It really doesn't matter because I'm pretty open about my anxiety, but I would feel a bit more at ease…

Hi Debra,

Welcome to the forum.

It is showing your full name. Don't worry, I won't stalk you on Facebook lol.

All the best!

Oh no, not worried about you folks, just don't want Google to capture my name. Is there any way I can change this to a user name?

Thanks for the welcome!
