Honestly, anxiety or not that is a difficult situation. All I can say is that despite the hardships life can still be beautiful. Is it easy to relax in the face of so much? Of course not, but as far as I can see life ends for all of us no matter what. Time marches on with haste no matter what. So, instead of focusing on that which I cannot control I look to the things I can influence. My attitude, outlook, the things I do, etc. Let me paraphrase a quote I heard once. Life isn't about stopping the rain, its about learning how to dance in the rain. Hang in there. Hi Marie, I’m very sorry to hear about your mom’s passing and the other tragedies you’ve experienced.

It sounds easy, but to practice it would seem to be more difficult. I've used the search on google to learn how to deal with it as my last 2 years has been unbelievabley stressful with deaths within my family, the economy, loved ones losing their jobs and suicides... my first reaction is, "what pushes us over the edge"? and Am I anywhere near that? I get dizzy, heart rate increases and I haven't felt "normal" since way before my mother passed Dec of 2007. Husband filed for a divorce in 2007. I just learned today that a friend of mine came home to their room mate hanging dead in their garage.... what next? when's the crap going to end? Interesting.
