I can totally relate to what you all posted. (plus title caught my attention after all it is my name lol) It is frustrating living like this day in and out. With no break. Pills aren't going to help it - just masks it! Just facing it without coping skills is just a set up for failure.

Finding a good therapist is part of the battle to win this. I have had a share of ****** therapists in past 4yrs. One told me to read a book about anxiety (REALLY??) After that next therapist I had I brought a book on anxiety into session - she looked at front cover saw over 1 million copies sold and laughed. Next therapist insisted I get out more and develop friendship. I look at him now paralyzed by social anxiety/agoraphobia HOW??? You have xanax take it? You can F$^^ Off. A pill isnt helping me nor either are you. FIRED lol

Try finding someone through the anxiety association Link ->

I have an appt this Tuesday with a new therapist who deals with JUST anxiety.
