I am a high school math teacher on Long Island, New York. I live a “secret” life that only few people know about. I had a tough childhood and an even tougher adulthood. At the age of 18, just after completing my first year of college, I suffered my first anxiety attack. I thought I was “going crazy” and had no idea what was happening to my mind and body. I have struggled with this secret ever since that day. Through hundreds of journal entries, I will be sharing my ups and downs about what it is like to live in the secret world of Me.
