Introduce myself

[Nicola joannidis]

Hi my name is Nicola. I suffered from GAD and depression last year and went on medication and was fine for a year. My anxiety has come back and I'm no longer on medication so I'm scared that It wont go without medication which is feeding to the anxiety.:welcome:

Hi Nicola

Welcome to the forum.

go and see your GP. They might be able to help without meds, perhaps you might need a short course to get you back on track. Otherwise there are talking therapies like CBT, counselling or hypnotherapy which may help. Welcome to the forum and good luck. I hope its just a temp setback

Welcome to the forums, Nicola. :)

I'm sorry to hear about your relapse. You have several options - you could ask your doctor if you can go back on the medication, and/or you could ask to be referred for CBT or counselling. I hope you will get the support you need.

How long has it been since your anxiety came back? If it's only a few days, then it could be a temporary blip.

It's been a year since I last had anxiety. I have been off the meds for a few months. I'm going back to work Wednesday and hoping that will help as my mind will be I occupied with that :)
