I think I'm finding that if I'm honest with JD about my thought processes rather than trying to control things based up on them, he's pretty open and responsive to that.

As I've said before, I think the fact that he understands how anxiety can be and knows that I'm earnestly trying to cope in a healthy way makes him very accepting of what I'm dealing with.
