StumbleUpon

Thursday, I was diagnosed with Generalized Anxiety Disorder, Social Anxiety Disorder, Panic Disorder. It's strange, really, how the past few years have been characterized by dealing less and worrying more.

I'm 24 years old. I fear that, in time, I won't be able to even handle simple things like going to work, mowing the lawn, tying my shoes.

And the fear perpetuates itself cyclically, like a spiraling shape hurling me towards a black hole of anxiety. I breathe deep, but the knot in my stomach only grows. The diagnosis has merely given a name to what I feel. It will take much longer to find a way out.

That's from my StumbleUpon blog. I really (really really) like Stumble. You choose categories in which you're interested, then it directs you to sites in those categories rated by other Stumblers. It's kind of like an ever-evolving Best of the Web meme. I have found some awesome sites (compelling, informative, funny, all-around-great) via Stumble. And I've made some new friends, too! ^_^
