A MILLION times.

You know you have panic disorder when:

You determine that the inside of your mind is moving back and forth, causing you anxiety.</span>

HAHAHAHA

I almost left the store because of the line the other day.

That was funny!

That was great! I also suffer from a few of those things but it nice to make light of the situation sometimes and have a good laugh. Thanks for that one

I loved this post. It took me a few times of listening to actually get past that without getting distracted.!

Thank you so much for posting these everyone. Wow it feels wonderful to be able to laugh about it and to know that others do the same things that I do. I got a good laugh out of this and sometimes that is what is most needed!

Ok so I did do the "cut the pill in half" thing - that is too funny -

You check your pulse and blood pressure more than once a day.

WOW- I had to laugh at these and read them to my family who is getting to know me as I get better. I do all of those things and always justify my reasons for them. It had to make me think about how many issues I've had and how much change is needed.

I check for bathrooms all the time. I also get mad at my husband, sister or friends for being spontaneous. I freak out if there aren't any toilet seat covers. I wipe down tables at fast food restaraunts (yet, I eat at them - ick). I won't touch doorknobs after washing my hands in a public restroom. I have to wipe down phones when someone hands it to me after they've been talking.

I just realized I'm a more of a germaphobe than I thought. Wow - the process of learning about ourselves is great, isn't it?

Thanks for sharing. -J

I am just signing on for the first time, because it's taken me a week or two to get my "courage" to go stand in line. I was proud of myself, because it didn't bother me as much as I thought. The line was long too.

Too funny...i broke my Xanex in half this morning. I can relate to almost every one of these things.

BTW, I saw a posting from Lorena818cutie on June 18 and I hope she is doing better. I just felt very concerned for her when i read her posting. Anyone?

Getting better every day.

I have never really looked at this section, but it is hilarious. The "freggrent" on the CD, I did notice and also thought what part of the country is she originally from...OH, I think.

When I was younger, when I had a bad cough, I thought I had lung cancer. I think it was from the movie, Brian's Song. (this goes back years and years)
