I am glad my story might have inspired people who read it ! I am so sorry about your Mother, losing a parent is tough ! I am also sorry that because of the lack of information Doctors had at that time, she did not get the help that is now available! I read your post about yesterday being a bad day for you (sorry I did not see it yesterday) and hope today is better . I would love to hear how your anxiety manifests , your triggers, coping skills etc. If I could, I would gladly share info that helped me. There was no support for me thru my years of suffering .......and this forum is such a wonderful thing so that people do not feel alone!
