Recently I was taken off xanax because my psy thinks that in the long term it can cause depression.

I now learn how to deal with my anxiety, rather than running away from it. I find that anxiety is the worst emotion to deal with. I am proud of myself when I face things, it makes me love myself a little more every day. I am schizo affective (schizophrenia and bi-polar).

The way I see it, our emotions, no matter what they are, guide us through life and we must learn from them. And so what if we make mistakes, everyone of us do at times.

Hugs your way Jeff
