I am not typically one to dote over celebrities, but thought this topic could be helpful to others in showing that you are NOT alone in your suffering with anxiety. Everybody, regardless of their "walk of life", can experience and suffer from anxiety and anxiety disorders.

I, personally, admire Howie Mandel for how he handles his OCD and how he is open about it on-air (i.e. America's Got Talent).

Please feel free to add to the list!
