      “Lots of things are the abuse of anxiety” doesn’t make my statement any less true. As far as extent of abuse goes, I would say religion is near if not the top of the list though.

      true; religion can act as therapy for anxiety

      but similar to other self-help like activities it can easily abused to be the exact opposite and even like a cult. like the commies here and trump’s cult
