Peg, thanks form the link. I went to the fellows website to look around, but didn't catch how he deals with anxiety.
Anxiety often manifests as sleep issues for me, lots of social avoidance, and just avoidance in general.
I have had some panic, too, which was particularly horrible. I think you are correct, if I am reading between the lines of your post, the sense that others with normal anxiety levels do not quite understand the more extreme states. I agree it is exhausting and painful. (I had a vacation experience, too, this summer with some sleep issues :-/)
And working to not let it *ruin* things for the family. Will you be able to rest up a bit now that you are home?
I dig a pony.
