@Random 503

Do you mean that there's no normal in you, or in anyone? I've found that when I get to know a person well enough that they tell me very personal things, about half the time, they're taking something for anxiety or depression or things like that. Or so it seems.

Family: I have a family history too. It may be one of the reasons I took so long to get diagnosed. In the family I was born into, 2 out of the 3 other people were gloomy and angry and had trouble sleeping well, so I thought that was normal. I didn't have it severely until my children started leaving home.
