Hiya Kirgray
Out of interest, what methods have you looked at to overcome your anxiety?
If you've never tried CBT, i highly recommend it. UK guidelines say that CBT is the most effective treatment for panic attacks and anxiety. Have a look at this thread

There is an online course called CBT4PANIC, free trial, recommended by NMP members and myself. After trying it, I was able to enjoy going to work again for the first time in a year! So give it a whirl to boost your confidence returning to work.
All the best :)
Hi Potatoe! (makes me think of celeb juice!)
I have tried CBT before found it ok i was a bit lazy and didnt put my all into it, i will have a go at this, i am hoping to try a group anxiety class also.
