hi there
i finally told my manager about anxiety after being there for almost 14 years, especially when she was questioning why i was making mistakes at work, after being there for so long... plus our company in the last few years are really promoting the mental illness, and how people should not be afraid to be more open about it.

some of my few friends at work know about my anxiety, but i don't broadcast it to everyone....if you can find a few people who make you feel safe or are not judgemental.

as for feeling adequate, yes been there, used to compare myself alot to other people when i was younger, but as i get older, getting more comfortable in my own skin but still have a ways to go.

take care
