Academics with Anxiety Disorder

Hell. I was wondering if you knew of any successful academics who have been diagnosed with an anxiety disorder.

Not me. Because of my disorder, I have dropped a lot of classes. I have pushed back graduation by a year.

It's the biggest shame of my life. I've not even tried for more opportunities I can get. I had one internship and I almost had a break down.

I often feel hopeless b/c I can't even do this simple stuff, when I know I can do better. But between this and the depression, it's the biggest struggle.

I'm not sure what you are asking exactly, but I do know of a lot of professors who are very reclusive and keep to themselves, which could be evidence of an anxiety disorder. There's that whole "mad scientist" or "nutty professor" stereotype, so there must be some out there..

I drop a lot of classes and drop out only to come back again.. It is a hard thing to get through but there are people here who have managed to make it.. I just wish I knew how..
