You are correct that I have a problem with anxiety. Without getting too personal, I've had a life that has sort of trained me to expect the worst, and it has repeatedly influenced my reactions to situations like this. When things aren't going as I expect them to, I tend to go to the worst possible place in my mind and it causes me considerable emotional upset. You said nothing wrong; this is a problem that I have. People have abandoned me and let me down a lot, which has taught me to expect it, especially when the letdown would be most severe and cause the greatest trouble. Anxiety and faith, I do have problems in those areas.

I understand.
But that's even more reason why you should encourage your client(s) to have proper contracts. Knowing that a client's unresponsiveness will not affect your payment will only help calm your nerves. I do hope you have a better time dealing with such situations in the future.

Sorry, but I'm looking at this from a humor point of view.
If my client of the past 3 years vanished, I'd be posting on forums and stuff too LOL. Man, this will make a great story.
