    Poll Sufferers, Do You Multitask Well?

    Well I use tasks and different projects to keep myself from having time to think and having anxiety. So, it's a coping mechanism switching between multiple tasks. Eventually it catches up with you and the anxiety wins out. Then you end up crashing somewhere.

    Feeling Nothing

    I feel empty like someone could die in front of me and I wouldn't even flinch or shed a tear. My body's here but, me? I'm somewhere else. The pain, rage, it's all there but, I can't feel it.
