I used to feel buried in my anxiety and could never find a smile, but I am trying to take my anxious thoughts less seriously. Humor seems to be a way to instantly lift myself out of taking myself seriously.

It seems my attempts at smile therapy are also reinforced by people in the healing fields. Here is an article that goes more in depth about ways that humor can help us heal.
9 Ways That Humor Can Heal | World of Psychology

If you want to discuss humor as healing or share a humorous story how your dx actually brought you into a humorous situation, you can go to the Anxiety Support Chat on Wednesday night, at 8PM EST and this is the primary topic for discussion, but people are also free to talk about their individual challenges. All humor needs to be in good taste for a support group format.
