      I'm in Chronic Pain everyday. It becomes very overwhelming. I pray, and just try my very best everyday I get tired and I rest I get back up and do it again. I refuse to let this pain condition run my life. Some days are worse than others I use creams like bengay or muscle rub of some sort. I don't get pain pills so sometimes I use CBD or marijuana for pain

      Hi JohnJ - 46 year old lifelong handler of anxiety here. I say “handler” instead of “struggler” b/c part of my journey has been learning that it’s a trait to be navigated and even used to your advantage, not a handicap. While it certainly feels like a great handicap to you now, it’s the learning of how YOU are the pilot in charge, and the anxiety is the co-pilot, that you have full authority over.;). So how do you accomplish this? My first suggestion is to read this book - the one and only anxiety book that FINALLY resonated with me after years of reading so many of them: https://www.amazon.com/dp/1734426543
