I love the Serenity Prayer, I keep it hanging on my refrigerator. I have never handled problems well, I get stressed out very easily over little things that usually don't bother other people. I think I have gotten a little better though at dealing with things though as I've gotten older. Not really sure though because I can still fall apart very easily.

I also suffer anxiety. I have gotten somewhat better at handling it as I've gotten older but it's still a struggle with me. I think for me it wasn't so much little things happening that caused it as it was just generalized feelings of anxiety and fears of something really bad happening. I've always been prone to vivid and disturbing dreams too. It took something big that rocked my world for me to gain better perspective. Unfortunately I'm still dealing with it.. or trying to.
