Thank you!

You would not believe [or maybe you would!] how alone and alienated I've been feeling.

Little Mouse, thank you for your words of empthy and support, they mean a lot.
Yes, I have anxiety too. I have been anxious for as long as I can remember. Before I even got noticeably depressed.
The medication helps some, but really it's therapy that helps the most. I hate summer therapy breaks! I hardly slept at all last night. Sedated wakefulness followed by a full day at work isn't great!
