It right after i started living with my alcoholic abusive aunt. I was 21 years old and she used to pass out drunk at 3 in the afternoon just to wake up at 11 pm andget drunk again. she had 3 kids and she would be so nice to them drunk, but sober, was another story. My anxiety started around then. Once i moved out, it got a little better. but it is pretty constant anxiety now. no panic attacks (bad ones) since i moved out 3 months ago. So i have been a sufferer about 9 months now.
