Hey everyone,
My name is Hugo. I suffer from High Anxiety Disorder and Agoraphobia. I suffered since I was kid. I used to cry before going to school and I could nerve stop shaking my legs. Years passed without me knowing that what I had was a serious disease.Growing up I had a few near death experiences that only made things worse.
On my early college years I did a lot of drinking and a lot of pot, which sure did not help. When I was in my early 20's I went to jail for drinking driving. Due to mixed up I ended up a week in jail and that's when my brain gave up. I got married a few months later and the symptoms only got worse. I started taking online classes due to the frequent panic attacks I was having. My physician prescribed lexapro, xanax and aderol. The drugs did not work very well. I took them for a few years and eventually decided to quit with the help of a therapist (this was one of the hardest things I ever had to do).
I eventually graduated from school. I found a job that pays ok, but that I could work from home. My wife is not very happy with the money I make, so I applied for a job and now. I have an interview coming up. The best thing about the job is that after six months of training, there is a possibility that I could work from home 4 out 5 days of the week, which it brings me here. I'm freaking out about the six months. I have not slept well for a few days now and been crying a few times a days. Its not easy being a grown ass mass and suffer from this disorder. My wife understands what I go trough, but not to the extent of someone who suffers from this terrible illness.
Thanks and I'm very much looking forward to relate with some of you.
