No trust me you aren't alone hon. I just got here to the forums and haven't been here for a few days so I didn't see this thread until now. I know exactly what you mean about the anxiety going up sometimes skyrocketting when the weather/weather forecast gets bad. I also have a major problem with tha...

You are in such good company here!
