ok, first off, I never know what to say to introduce myself and I usually just ramble off hahaha so bear with me.
Im in my 40's. I have four kids, one already moved out. One almost ready to leave the nest and two still in highschool. I'm an author and write YA novels, which is a weird anxiety filled profession in its own right, but I am trying to work through it.
I have had anxiety and panic attacks my whole life but in the last ten years they have really gotten a lot worse. Ever since my mom passed away as she was my go to person and the only one I could really talk to about things with out feeling like I was being judged. Ocd and depression as well although with me they all go hand in hand.
Not sure what else to say other then I hope to post here a lot and try some new ideas that I am finding here to help cope. Im on Effexor right now but its just not working so Im back to the doc on Thursday for something different. Which is filling me with such dread and anxiety right now, uggh.
Anyhow, nice to meet you and I wish everyone a good day.
