New guy just saying hello

[peace&love]

Hi all,

I've come across this site a few times through google searches for anxiety issues but only just joined.

Been suffering from anxiety/panic related stuff for several years. Started with panic attacks, moved into anticipatory/generalised anxiety then agoraphobia appeared and now it seems i have a healthy (no pun intended) dose of health anxiety too - likely due to only recently experiencing perpetual tight chest and back pain so I'm constantly convinced I'm about to have a heart attack - very dull!

Having suffered for many years, I've become a bit of a "go to guy" from friends who experience more brief bouts of anxiety and depression so hopefully I'll find help and be able to help other on here.

Anyway I'll try to find my way around the site and post again soon.

Peace and love to you all

Hi peace and love and :welcome: it is true when friends know you have suffered severe anxiety they tend to open up to you...they know you will not judge because you know what it feels like. I look forward to hearing your posts on agoraphobia and how you are coping.
