Hey everyone,
I've suffered from anxiety/panic for a long time and only just came across this site last night while trying to take my mind off yet another panic attack.
I started with panic attacks at the age of 14, I then relapsed 10 years later, and now, another 3-4 years on, I thought they were over and finally had weaned myself off the citalopram in January.....and then they started up again. I now feel like I have taken a huge step backwards and am feeling terrified. My doctor has said i can go back on the citalopram again (although I don't particually want to), but i dont really know what else to do. I have spents hundreds, if not thousands of pounds on all kinds of therapy, but it obviously hasn't helped :(
I'm hoping that this site will help, being able to chat to other people in the same boat as me, who understand what I am going through and maybe i'll be able to help others in return :)
