For those concerned about taking medicines:
I recently went to a wedding with my husband featuring a lot of his work buddies and had a great time. I know that without the medications I've been on these last ten years I couldn't have done it. I could feel them as a shield allowing me to function in this very high stress situation. I just noticed them once over the week-end enough to be aware that the shield was there, and I had a good time the rest of the week-end.

2. I should clarify
The shield was between me and the anxiety, not between me and the people around me.

3. (Some days, if I could get a shield up between me and me
that would have worked just fine. :rofl:
