My family and my spouse’s family have a history of severe anxiety. Both of my kids have suffered from serious anxiety-related disorders (one has OCD/GAD and the other is much less impacted but has had panic attacks and mild Tourette’s). I escaped anything other than mild anxiety, which responds well to yoga and that sort of thing, but my spouse has childhood-onset OCD. Thankfully, my kids and spouse have all responded incredibly well to medication. I literally am thankful every day that it is so effective for them. CBT is also helpful.
Oddly, it wasn’t until I first did a family tree at the request of a psychiatrist when my oldest was 6ish that I actually realized the pervasive infiltration of anxiety-related disorders throughout both families. My kids come by it honestly!
