I was at my primary doctor on Friday. I go about once a year because it is mentally hard to get the blood test he requested.

I told him for the first time about my anxiety and ADHD feelings. We started making a plan. After he got to the fourth thing thing I need to do I told him this many things to do makes me anxious. He could tell I became tense.

We stopped at three.
