| Yep, my anxiety never seems to go away unless i'm at home ( I live by myself) So anything that involves going outside/ seeing other people causes major anxiety and it often takes a long time to prepare myself mentally to go out. This makes doing even simple things like going grocery shopping or coll... |

Part of my obsession with numbers includes things like counting calories etc. I've even resorted to making myself sick if i feel i've eaten too much or gone over the calorie limit (Although i'm not actually overweight, around 130lbs at 5 4) I used ... |

| There's meds that can help and also therapy. There's a ton of different kinds of therapy, but i've heard a lot of good things about Cognitive Behavioural Therapy which basically challenges the way you think and attempts to change it (creating more positive thinking) . Difficult if you don't like tal... |

| I just got diagnoised, and as part of the assesment the psychologist had me do an iq test. It wasn't the score that was actually relevant though. Anyway, i scored the lowest on memory and still got diagnoised as an aspie. I was told it could possibly be related to anxiety. Are you often too anxious ... |

| I absoluty love my sleep! I'm a former insomniac who now sleeps 12-14 hours with the help of meds. If i'm having a bad day, or there's just too much on my mind then just curling up and sleeping really helps. I have anxiety problems, so my mind is often tired after being out and about. I'm aware of i... |
