I have suffered from anxiety and panic attacks since I was 18 (am 24 now). I had panic attacks almost daily for about 6 months, was put on anti depressants and beta blockers and counselling but nothing worked. They eventually stopped by themselves. I was still occasionally getting chest pains and was still worried about everything but at least my panic attacks had stopped.

I have had two children with no signs of attacks but just this week I have had two small attacks. I am absolutely gutted and really dont want to go back to the way I was. My family and partner are great but I dont think he understands at all the seriousness of them.

My partner works nights and that is when I usually get attacks so I am so worried.

I was diagnosed with General anxiety disorder but I think I also have health anxiety :(

Hoping to find people to talk to who know what I am going through or at least have some idea.
