Also, I was afraid to talk about anxiety for 20 years because when I was an undiagnosed teenager & cried once at the doctors talking about my symptoms they put 'depression & anxiety' on my file which pushed me down the psychogenic route & delayed my diagnosis by 20 years. https://twitter.com/Asher_Wolf/status/1360910899872108546
