Mike,
The anxiety I am experiencing is rather normal as it is because of two major life changes. My recent retirement and my only daughter leaving home. It is painful but I understand it. It is a sort of releasing one's false idenity and searching for who one really is. We often define ourselves by the roles we plan in society and I am loosing two of them at the same time. (career woman and mother). It is being stripped of some Ego stuff so what is Real can be found. Yes, I do have a counsler and also do focusing. I also might add that I loss a loved one at the same time that I retired. All in all, I know that this is a tremendous time of growth much in the same way as Cancer can be.
Thanks for your concern. Hope you are doing ok.
