    Oh my gosh, those statistics are so much higher than I ever imagined! 18% are living with anxiety disorders!! That's a whole lot of people! We are soooo not alone.

    Sometimes I think about that when I'm in a crowd. "1 in 5 of these people has anxiety. 1 in 10 is on an anti-depressant."

    I try to keep that in mind too, Martin. When I’m driving I look at cars and think “that person might have anxiety”. I have to go to the shops now and I’m so anxious, so I’ll be using that technique!
