"I didn't realize until I was in my early 20s the dysfunction of my family and what effect it had on me growing up. Anxiety started to really build, and I began to understand what it was as it was creeping in. It started to affect my relationships with family and friends, as well as my more intimate relationships."
"I've always been a pretty high-stress, high-anxiety person. I feel a lot of pressure to be doing things constantly. There's a lot of demand, and there's not a lot of structure in my life. I felt like I needed help, having some extra outlets to be able to express those frustrations and be able to make them into something constructive."
