    About Me

    I am a married mommy of 5 kids. My oldest is 10 my youngest is 4. I have severe anxiety. I have learned to 'somewhat' cope. Not having my husband to depend on TERRIFIES ME. I am always scared he will get sick and have to go into the hopsital and I will be alone. Death is not something I think about too much, I will get physically sick to my stomach. I am here to see if there are really other people that have my problems and have someone that understands me.

    Interests

    Keeping myself distracted when I feel an attack coming on. Trying to not 'throw up' everytime I get scared. It would be nice to be able to take medication without panic'ing. My interests are my kids and family...that is what I live for. With out God, I know I would not be here.
