I've been suffering with panic attacks for 11 years, at my worst I lived in bed and didn't leave the house for 3 years).
Now i'm getting better at going out but I terrible social phobia, and problems with my eating. My main trigger is feeling hungry as it makes me retch, and i feel hungry alot and that's what's stopping me from progressing.
It's come to a head now because the dentist came to visit me 3 weeks ago and told me I had to go to hospital for my wisdom tooth taking out. I cried alot, and they told me to speak to the doctor about medication to help me get through the appointment.
My husband called the Doctors today to ask for a home visit for me as I can't get to the surgery without a lot of panic and sikness.
They said they will get the Doctor to ring me first to discuss my problems, and to see if a home visit is nessasary.
I'm now waiting for this phonecall and i'm shaking with nerves, I don't know what to expect. I don't know how to start off the conversation and I feel very awkward.
Any ideas? or reassurance
Thank you?
