>Thanks Scott. It is an old article, but as you pointed out, relieving anxiety often includes things like disinhibition that can also be problematic. Some anxiety CAN be productive, because it helps us get along socially (follow productive social mores), and have good reason to fear certain things, for example. (I have to comment...I think 45 has *no* inhibitions...proving the above..lol.)
