>Well, I have had GAD...as far as I can remember in Grade 2, sitting in my chair, terrified, and peeing my pants, and getting scolded by the teacher. (Mind you this was 1975) This continued for a long time...up to current day.
Much of it is, I don't have a lot of money, live in a drug-infested neighbourhood (Like crack, cocaine, fentanyl) on disability (I have always had a good paying job) and feel like I could die at any moment, etc. I have recently tried calling my local hospital about CBT, as I am actually learning in school how to administer it. I am also interested in DBT (dialectical behaviour therapy) because I seem to have a sign of Borderline Personality Disorder, but not enough to make it a primary Dx.
Dilantin seems like less of an intense mood stabilizer then most. But, I do have a vape pen, and may look into the CBD/THC combo. I know I gotta lay off the T2's...like you said, for my liver's sake.
Thanks kindly,

No philosophy consoles me
