Comment by jpg391 on October 20, 2012 at 11:24am I have been a type 2 for over thirty years. I was diagnosed with Anxiety just over a month ago. But I had signs of it for many years. I'm currently on medication for it.
Comment by iris on October 3, 2012 at 5:13pm Hi..I was diagnosed in Jan.2012 with type 2. Have suffered from panic/anxiety attacks since around 12yrs old. Lived with them for 45 years without telling anyone and just dealing with it as best I could. For the past few years I take paxil. It helps with the anxiety but I also do not put myself in any situations where I would have an attack. No underground subways, tall buildings, planes..

Comment by alizachana on December 23, 2011 at 7:52am I've started a group for those of us who have diabetes and also have Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, a sub-group of the anxiety disorders. I have severe generalized anxiety as well as fairly severe OCD, so if you have both and are interested in joining, the link to the group is : http://www.tudiabetes.org/group/diabetics-with-obsessive-compulsive... . I think that this group has been really helpful to me, and I just want to add another resource out there that may help all of us PWD with anxiety disorders that may be helpful in bringing us together to help!
