      I am really into watching old movies right now. I enjoy most crafts, especially sewing and calligraphy. I love to read and play games on the computer.

    • Close Anxiety

      I have suffered from anxiety disorder since 1998. I went through therapy and took Paxil and within a year I was 90% better. In the past few years things have gotten worse and I am in therapy again and trying to find a new drug that will work. Paxil has stopped working for me. My anxiety manifests itself when I am in a vehicle. I can't drive by myself beyond my neighborhood and have difficulty riding with others.
