Usually take an afternoon nap from 12:00 to dinner time just because I have nothing to do. But recently I have noticed something very strange about waking up from these naps. About 75% of the time when I wake up I am in a complete panic; cold sweats, breathing hard, paranoia, completely scared of everything.

Waking up Dead and Sleep Anxiety
No Way Out
It started in September when our house began to go through foreclosure. Anxiety, stress, depression, and many other difficulties decended on my family as we had to prepare to move.

This site has changed my life
If I wouldn't have found ProU I would be curled up in a ball. I would be alone, weeping, and thinking of how much I hate life. This site has changed my life.

I have meet amazing people on this site, and I wish I could meet them in real life, but not knowing makes it that much more interesting.

I sleep though the entire morning and well into the afternoon, awaken constantly by the ringing phone. Damn creditors.

The feeling comes back
If you know me by now you know that I think too much. This is due to my anxiety disorder. Feelings that have been suppressed so long can come back so quickly. By surpressing feelings I can go on with my life. I can get over things. I can become emotionally numb.

Anxiety for Dummies
I have put off writing about this since I have been on here because in reality the word Anxiety makes me anxious, but I figured I would give it a shot. Many people have questioned a person's sanity when not really understanding the situtation they are going through. I have had anxiety since I was 15 years old (5 years)

The Urge to Purge
It happens every year or so. It is almost uncontrollable. I think about losing all that excess and I don’t feel settled until I get it out…of my house.

Common Sense Isn't So Common
I was driving to work this morning, preoccupied because I was sent on a huge detour due to the neverending construction in this city, and I began reflecting on society.
At the risk of sounding crass, society on a whole is quite dissapointing.
