    Thank you so much.

    It is only part of my extensive website on my own journey to hell.

    You might like to look at the "Facts and Excuses" section of and the "Wise Words" one as well.

    Thank you again.

    I totally agree with Fozzy. People just don't get it or can't handle it. Maybe they are so selfish they don't want to see it. Very sad.

    I think most of us have lost friends or family members to a point because of our anxiety, you are certainly not alone.

    Check out Fozzy's site, it is sad but very true.

    I wish you well. Kitti

    I too think that some people just don't know how to deal with mental illness, unless they have experienced it themselves or within their close circle of friends or family.

    I sadly don't have any family anymore and understand completely the isolation that mental and physical illness can lead to. Sometimes I feel sorry for myself and depressed, sometimes I can even feel angry towards the friends that have drifted away, but ultimately it is my life, and it is up to me to get on with things, no matter how difficult it may get. There's no choice.

    I think it is improving but there is a stigma with mental health which of course leads to further isolation for mental health sufferers. It makes me so sad. I do get some support from my CBT and a couple of close friends, but I can completely rely on nobody but myself. That's just the way it is and something not within my power to change.
