Man, I was a mess back then. So thankful to t for helping me heal. So, so thankful.

Sending hugs....
Yes, I can relate to this too. It's an anxious habit for me and a hard one to break at times. My daughter has it too though with a lot of hard work and focus, she seems to be coming out of the worst of it. It's a tough tough one, and I am sorry you're struggling with it.
