I just made it today; punched out 10 minutes early because I wanted to scream, cry, punch someone...whatever...
I flake out on plans too, and then get all apologetic. When I try to explain the anxiety thing, I can just see people's eyes glaze over; I feel like they don't want to hear it.

I always thought it was just a work thing, but almost every morning I have this pang of anxiety right when I get up. Since i was on vacation last week, I still get it. I think it's because I am so peaceful when sleeping, no anxiety can haunt me there, that when I wake up i'm like "great, i have to deal with another day of anxiety/the unknown/annoying people".
I know the feeling of trying to get yourself to be "on", it's so difficult sometimes. I hide it really well at work where people like me but secretly i think most of them are a pain in the *****!!!!! lol
