Dear Christy Lim:

I understand you feeling “tired and fed up of facing this (anxiety)”- it does take a lot of patience to face this, no fast and easy solutions. I didn’t choose my anxiety and I can not wish it away. If I had the choice, I would never have chosen it! And if I could wish it away, I would have wished it away at the first opportunity, decades ago.

As to your questions: I am not part of the staff of this forum. I am a member just like you. I am an active member, posting a lot, but still, no more than a member.

Sure I have my own problems and I share about them. The advice I give is the same advice I take for myself. When anxious and distressed myself, I remember what I write to others and practice it. Posting here helps remind me, on an ongoing basis, of what I learned. It helps me heal from my anxiety.
