I agree, Odee. I
do know somewhat who I'd be without my panic disorder, OCD and depression. But the parts I don't know? I'd love to find out! I would see it as an adventure, one I could go on without my anxiety ruining the fun! When I got control of my OCD the first time (because of Anafranil), I was freer than I'd ever felt before. I didn't know where to start in pursuing my dreams, normal routines, and everything else, but I was excited! My niece (who's seven months older than me) said she was getting her driver's license, and I thought, YES! That's what I'll do next! And I did! (Thanks goes to Mom, teaching me.

) And eventually, I pursued a commercial acting class. I know I'd be a lot closer to reaching my dreams and goals if I hadn't been halted by these evil conditions.
