Okay, so I'm a bit nervous about this so please excuse me if I ramble on a bit :blush:
My name is Sarah and I'm 23 years old. I've been suffering for many many years and ended up missing out my final school years because of anxitey. I plucked up the courage to resit these at college recently but since finishing I've sort of got myself into a hole with anxiety and have become really depressed, and have started to feel detatched to my children (who are 3 and 4 - both boys, and my boyfriend) "no way back out of the hole" kind of thing. So... everything came to a head on thursday night when I basically broke down and thought of ending my own life. I have history of this and decided this time it was going to be different and I was going to get help so I rang NHS direct and it ended with an emergency doctor coming to my house to calm me down. Since then I've been lost in a sea of new faces - I have a new doctor, social services and seeing how they can help, care link over the weekends and a health visitor :wacko:
So, this is sort of the start of the journey for me, I've finally accepted I need help and have just started Citalopram 20mg as of last friday.
See? I told you I would ramble.
Thanks for reading to the end and I hope to get involved and see you around the forum :)
