Hi everyone.
Just doing the obligatory intro post.
I'm Nerdling2, a 30-something, married mum from UK.
I've felt very alone for a long time...I do have friends, and family, but don't feel most understand what's in my head. Or how they can when I don't understand it myself.
It's good to find there may be a place for people like me to try and make sense of it all, together.
I am in online CBT, early days so far.
Not formally diagnosed as I'm very high functioning, but my therapist has said I'm on the severe end of the anxiety spectrum. I'm assuming that'd be Generalised Anxiety, although I also have phobias about so many things it's tiring trying to list them all. The main ones are probably flying, terrorism, public transport generally but there are plenty more.
Looking forwards to learning and hopefully growing with you all.
