Yeah I was super anxious (to the point of the occasional (alright frequent) panic attack) for way too long before I started treatment

I literally put it off for years

My only regret is taking so damn long to get started, my life has literally only gotten better since I started

It's like I'm a sailboat that finally got a rudder installed. Yeah the wind still pushes me in directions at it's leisure but I have enough control now to actually influence my direction.
