:yesyes: I agree, it means the world to me just to know that I'm not alone. I can remember the years of not even questioning my unconscious belief that there was nothing I could do about the way I was, and that was because I assumed there was something uniquely wrong with me. There is quite a lot of public awareness about depression now, and there is awareness of stress, but I thought I was abnormal to feel stressed all the time, as this was something I hadn't heard of. None of the doctors or therapists I've seen diagnosed me as having GAD, but then I read your description and it fit so well, I asked my most recent CBT therapist and she said "yeah this is probably what you have, but we don't like to put labels on people" :shrug:
Anyway so this site has really helped me come to terms with the last 10 years. Plus it was through suggestions on here that I decided to buy Claire Weekes books.
