Just prior to May, which is Mental Health
Month, the Anxiety Disorders Association of America (ADAA) released a survey about social anxiety disorder. It
revealed that most of the people who have this disorder report feeling as if
they are alone.
Social anxiety
disorder, also called socia...



i am 41 years old and i only realized in my early 30's that i have anxiety disorder.
it really is a horrible problem to endure and has to a great extent spoiled the quality of my life.
as a result of this disorder i have lived a reclusive life although i would rather be out and about trying to enjoy life but it is hard to do that when your mind and body is in a constant state of anxiety.
to wake up tommorow and find that my anxiety level has finally reset itself i would feel so happy.
i think i would "live" life more than i have done in my 41 painful and humiliating as well as depressing years.
i wish there exists a cure for those of us that suffer from this...but it looks as if i have to try to come to terms that i will live out the rest of my life with this disorder.
when i really feel stressed i sometimes feel that the only answer is sucide because only then will i in a sense be free and yet i wont be able to rejoice because my life would be over.
so instead i have to endure reluctantly and keep praying for an answer to this problem.
