I was diagnosed with generalized anxiety disorder and given a PRN medication a while back. Strange thing is, I’m pretty fluent at this point in my life. I went through a period of significant substance abuse in my late teens and twenties. I thought it was all in good fun, but in hindsight I was self-medicating. At this point in my life, I try to take good care of myself physically and mentally. I’ve accepted the anxiety as part of life, but it does suck when it’s bad. I posted the other day about having to introduce myself in front of people, I thought my heart was going to blow up.
