I am not able to care for myself. Currently, I am relying on my wife heavily financially and otherwise. I personally am at a loss as to what to do about my anxiety disorder. I moved out of my mom's house when I was in college, over 20 years ago, and never gone back, but I've always felt like I am on the verge of homelessness due to my anxiety disorder. I taught in private and public schools for a decade (the 1990s) without being on meds, but it was extremely difficult. I lost my teaching job in 2000, hooked up writing test items for the last decade, but now ... I'm in limbo again. I'm taking 80mg Viibryd right now, into 6th week, it's not really potent enough. Many failed SSRI trials. I feel humiliated most of the time because this anxiety disorder is not who I am inside.
