I developed anxiety (not diagnosed) earlier this year - even just laying it all out to a psychologist helped A LOT. Since my anxiety is in check I can focus on my diet a lot more, starting to get results with weight and feeling better now.

I was diagnosed with ADHD when I was a kid and have recently (last few months) had some pretty bad anxiety - this comment makes me wonder is the anxiety just restless of the mind? Will tell my GP I have ADD next time I see him and see what
