"Remember that God has given us wondrous knowledge and techonology that can help us overcome grievous problems such as mental illness. Seriously mentally ill persons simply cannot, through an exercise of will, get out of the predicament they are in. They need help, encouragement, understanding and love...we don't say to persons with heart disease or cancer, 'Just grow up up and get over it.' Neither should we treat the mentally ill in such an uncompassionate and unhelpful way."
(Elder Alexander Morrison, Emeritus Seventy).

So...some interesting things. I'm still experiencing anxiety. Now, important things to remember when you are experiencing anxiety is to figure out if there is a source. I am at EFY right now which inevitable includes stress. But personally, I don't think I'm stressed about EFY. I mean, let's face it. I've done four summers of this. I'm an old pro. Sooooooo....why the anxiety? THAT is the question.
I do have some other vitamins for anxiety but I don't have a lot. Maybe I'll have someone in my family about bringing me some when I'm back in Utah. I haven't really used those much. I don't even know if they work. I feel like it's more of a placebo effect when it comes to anxiety.

Meh, we'll see.
