It’s crazy how many people with health problems are around you all the time and can even be your best friend, but the moment the wrong person finds out, they’re world takes a crazy 180. It’s sad.
I did already know this, but the article was interesting! It’s very cool that you say "functioning better than you are" because in my case anyway, it’s true. Despite my panic attacks and anxiety problems, I’m the one the entire family turns to when they need something because I can handle more stress than they can. I don’t know if it’s living with anxiety day-to-day that gives me practice or whatever, but I just do it. Jessica
