You think you get nervous?

I'm a pretty anxious person and my anxiety spun out of control while living in New York City and trying to pursue an acting career. I was so anxious that at the tender age of 25 or 26 (who knows, it's something I've repressed), I developed shingles, a 50 year-old man virus. Shingles are chicken pox for adults. Pox are itchy, pox are for kids. But shingles are blisters. Blisters that were on my face. I moved home shortly after.
