Hello JennyJumpUp.
Yeah, it is a self-fulfillly thing. Congradulations on starting this new journey, and for loving and having enough respect for yourself to start now. You deserve the fullest out of life!
I'm so sorry about those disorders.
And for your job, maybe have a peace of gum with you-or brush your teeth right before you go out, and drink a glass of water to help fill you up before the event. That should help you stay focused.
This is the best place for a new beginning, and you so do have a very bright future.
