Hi, this is my first time posting here. A friend recommended this website to me and so I thought I would check it out.
My name is Amanda and I've struggled with generalized anxiety and panic attacks most of my life. When I was 22, I developed severe agoraphobia and was house bound for almost 4 years. I'm 29 now, and no longer have agoraphobia, but still struggle with anxiety/panic on a daily basis. I also have severe ocd and trichotillomania. Life has not been easy but I do believe that everything happens for a reason and though I wouldn't wish this anxiety on my worst enemy, it's made me the person I am today.
At almost the age of thirty, I am just now finishing my B.A. I had originally started University ten years ago but dropped out by the end of my third year due to the severeness of my panic attacks. I am now finishing my degree online and hope that one day everything will fall into place again. In the meantime, I am living life one day at a time and trying to accept the cards I have been dealt.
