MY DAUGHTER SUFFERED FROM ANXIETY MOST OF HER 20 YEARS. AS A CHILD SHE WAS AGRESSIVE AND HAD TEMPER TANTRUMS. AS A TEENAGER SHE CHOOSE DRUG ABUSE TO CALM HER MOODS. AFTER MUCH COUNSELING AND TREATMENT, SOME DOCTORS THOUGHT THE ANXIETY WAS CAUSED BY HER STEROID TREATMENT. SHE TOOK CORTISONE ACETATE. SHE ALSO HAD A WEIGHT PROBLEM CAUSED BY THE MEDICATION. I BELIEVE A LOT OF HER PROBLEMS WERE CAUSED BY SIDE AFFECTS TO THE MEDICATION.
