Wishing you a successful journey, @isaria. Your post reminds me so much of someone very close to me who is struggling with anxiety, panic attacks, and depression, as well. She has her good days but they are followed by four or five very difficult ones.

In the same boat insurance wise so she has no professional support. I'm going to look into this CBT therapy you speak of. Like you, she's very intelligent and very literate so I feel confident she has the tools to use something like this on her own. The questions is, will she?

I'm following you now so I can keep up on your journey and perhaps pass along any tips you share. Sending you, and her, good vibes. Peace be with you!
