LW1 - you are my hero.  Hang in best you can.  Watch the medications though, they can be worse than the anxiety but everyone is different, so, worth a shot.  

LW2 - been there and sorry you're experiencing all that.  I had a therpist tell me the answer to the question you have and her answer was "it's not your fault how other people behave".  I had a hard time forgiving my father and other family members for treating me like the bastard son that I was until I came to the understanding that I can't fix them, I can't tell them how to act or feel, and I'm not responsible for their actions.  Once I accepted that, I've been fine ever since.  And I haven't seen those people since!  Best of luck.
