I suffer with general anxiety disorder (GAD) which means I can feel an excessive, uncontrollable and often irrational worry about everyday things. This can make me act inappropriately, get angry, feel scared and worried a great deal of the time. I know what it is like to feel upset, trapped and alone with scary feelings. I want to help other people and their families who don't have help and understanding like me."
