Hello!!

Hello!
I'm the newest member! Wow for a moment i felt important! My name is ed, but you may know me better as new sarah's boyfriend. Or maybe you don't. Anyway I'm 23, I live in Durham doing a degree which will thankfully be finished soon.
I suffer from anxiety and am seeing a counsellor. She says I also have panic attacks, I prefer to view it as not dealing with stress!!
I get headaches, dizziness, nausea and real painful eyes.
I hope to get to know you all soon..

Hi Ed ,

Welcome to the message forum.

You seem to be doing fine with your issues, just maybe need some fine tuning pre exams next year . Hope your counsellor is helping you with learning to deal with stress ..

Decided to come and have a look and see what we all get up to on here ?

Hi Ed

Welcome to the forum :D My anxiety and panic started in my last year at uni and I know that pressure-to-do-well feeling all too well. Trust me though, once your through it'll be like a huge weight has lifted off your shoulders and you forget how bad it was. In my case, so much so that I'm going back to attempt a masters!

My symptoms include nausea too which is frankly just the pits, its the worst thing in the world to me because I've got a bit of a phobia about being sick anyway. I get lots of other symptoms too which seem to evolve all the time, as one goes I get a different one!

Hopefully I'll get to meet you and Sarah soon as I live just down the road in Darlington.

Take care hon, love Jo xxx
