Anxiety is not bad
After studying psychology for many years I find that people suffering from anxiety are very smart people.
We are slightly gullible and believe in our dreams. We are a team. We are all connected. I love all of you.
I mean that. Now get ready for the real cause of anxiety. It is a lack of trust in mankind.
People are greedy and sickening so why should we trust them? We should not.
Please try and relax when you are feeling these attacks. It is definitely not weird. You are smart. You are fun.
We are all in this together. I support you and I love you. I am one of you. I just had two attacks when I was drifting off to sleep. They were great. We are connecting in another world. The world where all the answers are known to us. I am sure of this. Edgar Cayce just look him up. You will know the truth. The gasping was only two months ago. We all gasps out of our sleep. I know exactly why. I flew in my dream to be with you because I love you.
Someone that loves you without conditions. That is what we all need. I am the one that loves you.
I love all people good or bad. I forgive instantly. I do not believe in death. I have died before and I will die again.
I can still be with you. I will always be here with you. I just close my eyes and wish I was there. I can fly to you.
You can and you do fly to me. We all know each other. Anxiety is not bad. It is a gift. Enjoy it. Love Dan

Gotta say, I was just as intelligent before I got this blasted stuff, but far more productive and happy. Not much of a gift, but if that gets you through the day, blessings be upon you.
I find people with anxiety and depression very smart moreso because we have the time to fill and we do so in a creative sort of way. Had I not have had my disorder I wouldn't have learned anything about computers at all. Used to fill my time up in constructive ways.
But that is not saying we all have a gift. Jasus. Is this the only gift they can think of giving us all? The gift of not been able to live a full life. The gift of feeling down most days of the week. In some cases, the gift of dreading the thought of another day. It is far from a blessing.
Smart people we might be. Thinkers. But I think anybody would trade all that in to live a normal peaceful life. No worries. No fears.
You can put my gift next to Lydia's, if there is any more room left.

And where, exactly, did you study psychology?
Sorry to say I do not, nor have I EVER, thought of my panic attacks as "great!"
I'm a reasonably intelligent person, but I know damn well why I have PTSD and panic attacks and it's NOT because I'm so bloody smart I'm "connecting" with you in another world where we know all the answers!
My guess is that you're a very sweet and caring person..........or a total lunatic. I'm leaning towards the latter.
As for my "gift?" Take it and shove it.

Albert einstein was not a skitzophrenic but his son was.
Nikola Tesla may have had OCD only
But there are other great people who suffered many mental illneses and still did incredable in their lives.

Fun fact
Albert Einstein was a skitsophranic.
Abe Lincoln was a depresive "Often thought of suicide"
I dont know if any of you guys know who Nikola Tesla is, but he was a skitso too "He was another genius..actually invented electricity....was actually called smarter then einstein"
Kind of reminds me of Beautiful Minds..that was a good movie

LOL! I'm not going to disagree with you on that one kellie.
Monica has a solid theory I think. Maybe the reason people with depression and anxiety dissorder are often very smart is because it is the fact that they are smart which causes the suffering. Smart people are much more tuned into over thinking everything. Were always trying to analize everything in our world and perhaps it is this fact that causes us such anxiety.
Take my dumb neighbor for example. He has never analized a thing in his life. He simply lives lfe in the moment because that's as far as his brain will take him. This serves him well in matters of good mental health and feelings of well being.
One thing is for sure.... I have yet to meet a dumb person with depression and anxiety dissorder.

Perhaps smart people are simply able to recognize that they have a problem (anxiety)?
I have a neighbor that is the most happy and relaxed person in the world, but he is dumb as a rock. He works a simple job and has a simple life. The man lives in absolute oblivianated bliss.
He always has a smile on his face and he gets joy out of the little things in life. Granted he is dumb as a bag of hammers, but I envy him so much. Everytime I see that guy walking his little dog and just smiling away, I find myself thinking "How in the world do you do that?" Why can't I do that?
I have an IQ of 142 and I would trade it for his 85 anyday of the week. To live in this mans head must be sweet bliss.

The gift that is spoken of disrupts my life much too often. I will that gift still wrapped.

If it's such a gift then I sure know your welcome to take mine anyday.
I don't consider waking up in the morning with my whole body trembling so rapidly that it's vibrating out to every extremity.
I will also pass on the way it makes my hands tremble all the time. I'm also not too fond of the way it makes me want to put a gun to my head because the pain of it is much like a tormenting Mental Tempest in my brain that does not allow normal fuctioning or the ability to hold a job like a normal person.
Yea, I'm pretty sure you can have that gift because I sure know I could live without it.
