So true. Read something recently that anxiety disorders are the most commonly diagnosed mental health issue.Originally Posted by panic_down_under
Sorry to hear about the rough time you had in recent years.
Contrary to what many believe the best folk to have in emergency/stressful situations are those with anxiety disorders. We tend to perform better than most in such circumstances, perhaps, at least in part, because the past stressful events we endured taught us how to survive them in the moment. But we can pay quite a price for that stoicism once the pressure is off.
Personally I think it speaks volumes that there is something wrong at a societal level.
Hope everyone has a perky day.
