Being a part of a company where you enjoy the benefits and the people are wonderful.  With great co-workers, you have fun, production increases, you give more of your time to the company, you attend work functions and you are HAPPY.

    Anxiety Who?

    I am a driven person who does a lot, and I have to tell myself to sit down occasionally. 2010 was a great year, I was teaching, completed graduate school, had my second child, and got promoted; I was on a roll.

Due to the severity of the episode, I was taken to the hospital and was informed I had Vertigo. I’ve never heard of it. The doctors did their…
