I first developed a panic disorder when i was 17. It was awful but after 8 years i was finally rid of every trace of GAD.
I moved to london las year which goes to show how well i was feeling. Everything was going so right for me and then 6 days ago, Panic attack. I completely forgot how awful and intence it was.. I got off the tube and when i did i realised 'it dosn't matter that im off the tube its still happening, but now im just wondering around stockwell having a Panic attack'.
I managed o get to a friends house and tried to resume life as normal but the next day at work a wave of panic hit me and i couldn't leave the office to even go outside. I couldn't get home but i didn't want to be there. I was like a prisoner of my own making.
I've been singned off work now, i haven't left the house in days. I've gone from enjoying my life to the full to laying in bed having back to back panic attacks all day in the space of one week!
I'm back on citalapram now which i worked so hard to get off and i just don't know when this is going to end. When am i going to be able to live my life again? I can't go through another 3 years getting over this I'm 26, not exactly 17 anymore.
I just want to be normal. help!
