Thanks Yxibow...
As I think back....I can remember clearly feeling similiar anxiety,social awkwardness,desire to isolate and inferiority as a child.The same issuses that led me to begin taking Med's later in life.
I guess when I was younger, I was better able to handle these feelings as..like all of us at that age...I was developing, learning about life, and unaware that feeling "different" was not normal.
I remember my first Panic Attack was at age 18 in College. It passed...and I didnt have another until in my 30's.
My point is that as life has progressed....it becomes more difficult to handle "life"..with all the pressures of full-blown adulthood...while at the same time feeling anxiety, depression, etc...
The other difference in adulthood, is that we can not afford the Luxury of taking time out to get "better". We need patched-up to stay in the Game because our responsibilities are greater and more pressing ( Mortgage, Spouse, Kids,etc...)
More food for thought...thanks again
BF
