H has problems - so what's new about that statement?
H claims that his anxiety is what plays havoc in his life - the A, he says exacerbated that problem and then became a problem of its own.
So, it goes that...first his excuse was the A made him do all those awful things, now his second excuse is his anxiety is causing the problems. Any bets as to what his next excuse will be? Oh, I got it... my parents are at fault.
I get it now... he doesn't have to take responsibility for his behavior - nice try. When do I get to use excuses?
