Hello I'm new to this forum, I just need a little bit of advice really.
I haven't been diagnosed with anxiety yet as I have had to wait a while for a doctors appointment, but I have always been a worrier!
Just recently I have been feeling extremely panicky, dizzy, feeling sick, shaking also having a feeling of not being able to catch my breath!
It started on the bus on the way to work and I totally freaked I ran off the bus and was just sitting on the side of te road crying!
I went to hospital and was told my heart rate and lungs where ok.
Does this sound like panic attacks to you?
What's making it worse is I have recently started a new job that I really like! But I have had an awful lot of time off due to the way I'm feeling all the time.
Work is fine it's just that dreaded bus where I had my first attack, everytime I get on there now I feel like one is creeping up on me.
I hve been ringing my mum when I start to panic and feel faint but she has recently started a new job where I cannot call her.
I'm worrying my employer is going to fire me ! I was the only one on my department in today and I had to call in as I ha a bad 'attack' and couldn't face it. I know I have let them down badly and I'm worrying this will cause me to become fired!
I really don't know what to do or how to cope with this ! Any advice you give me will be very much appreciated xxx
