Hi everyone,

I stumbled on this site almost by accident. It's great to see something like this exists. I've suffered from anxiety since I was in my early 20's. For the most part it's under control accept in very stressful situations. It gets so bad I have to consciously remind myself to breathe. I have been trying to quit smoking as of late, but just thinking about not buying smokes brings on little panic attacks. It sucks and sounds silly to me that this happens. Here's to hoping I find the support I need to over come smoking. Thanks
