My job definitely causes a lot of stress, but where I live right now, jobs aren't readily available. I've been looking since December 2008 to find something new, and so far, no luck. But, during the summer, I go down to part time and watch my sister's oldest daughter and sometimes some other kids, so that definitely helps. Unfortunately, I can't afford to quit my job. The leave of absence I took was pretty hard on my mother and me, and my dad refuses to help out with my bills. (He much prefers his new wife's family to his own.)

Considering all of the psych tests I have taken indicate moderate-severe anxiety with agoraphobia and likely rapid cycling bipolar disorder combined with mild OCD, I think my best bet is to find a psychiatrist in my area ASAP. The Lexapro and hydroxine just aren't cutting it anymore, and I'm tired of the heart palpitations and the dread of going out. Alas, life as a college student!
