    I hope People are doing Good here?...I'm trying to come to Terms with my most recent Ex talking to another Guy behind my back about her Exams rather then talking me...I mean seriously...who does that???...by the way it was the same Guy who she bought a Birthday Present for on the day of his Birthday and yet didn't get me one until a week after my Birthday...

    Many years ago, I had a girlfriend and she and I were getting closer to being ex's.  She started talking more about this other guy.  I would have done well back then to just let her go out of my life and visa versa and let the air clear.  You might find that the healthiest way to deal with it at this point. I know, that's hard to do, but in the long run, for the best.

    Exactly.  I knew for a long time but I was too afraid to leave even when the handwriting was on the wall.  All my friends saw it.  They saw what it was doing to me and they all told me to leave for my own sake.  It was a hard life lesson. 

    Fortunately, several years later she and I exchanged a few letters and made peace.  Never saw or heard from her again after that but that's OK too.

    I can only imagine.  No thanks!  Yes, anxiety can certainly be induced by medical issues- anything from a broken tooth at midnight on a Sunday in the middle of nowhere (no fun!) to what you went through. 

    I don't think you can put a meter on anxiety.  We all experience that emotion at least a little different.   The famed mountaineer, Ed Viesturs, talks about the anxiety being in a dangerous situation in the "death zone" above 8,000 meters (26,247 feet), and yet those who go there do so on their own accord.  I don't think I would ever put myself in that position (but I sure enjoy reading about that kind of thing).

    I read  that and that like many critical or life long medical conditions induce a huge anxiety. Infact trauma of any kind are causes and not one bigger or more than the other. Some inspiring people i have met with diseases and life changing circumstances are actually not anxious which im in awe of.

    Im a medicinal user ... i quit taking anti-depressants and now just use my medicinal weed to deal with anxiety, its the best thing I've done medically...I'm down to one pharmaceutical my life...and to me that is one to many.  And its far safer for you than alcohol and anti-depressants, with anti-depressants you are relying on a proper diagnosis in order to get the right meds...

    How much weed do you use a day?
    It varies, maybe 2-3 grams ... mostly at night before bed, that’s when my anxiety is at its worst.  I’m know expert, but I’ve often wondered that if you use regularly and builds up in your system...that maybe it controls axiety long term...I’m not nearly as anxious.

    other things weed as helped me with, shooting nerve pain in my feet, sleep, anxiety...however it does not help me with pain.

    I also find if I smoke when drinking, the depressant that alcohol causes isn’t there...that could just be me.

    also I might be coming to the realization that my marriage is over...

    How does that make you feel? I mean are you looking at it with hope for the future or is it the end of your world

    Your advice made me feel a bit better Brian...I know what you mean it is so clear and yet you choose to ignore it...and yes you are right these past two years was a hard life lesson...
