Well I've been dealing with anxiety including panic attacks since I was 7.Now I'm 23.You do the math.:)
They successfully managed to make all the symptoms disappear with benzodiazepams (spelling?help?[:P]) and I finnished my high-school educations without many problems.I had panic-attacks but they were very rare (like once a year) and I didn't pay much attention to it.Till I've entered the University and moved to another city.That's the moment it all collapsed.It started to be unbearable,I wasn't able to get out of the bed (thinking I'm surely gonna die soon :)).I had to drop the Uni,got back home,went to the psyhiatrist,got Prozac and Xanax.Had agoraphobia and all other symptoms you probably have on your list..Luckily,thanks to the support of my awesome ex-boyfriend and my family,I succeded to put my life back on the tracks.Stopped taking medications and finally felt happy again.Till this broke up with my boyfriend,like two years ago.It was truly hard decission I made,for this guy was a huge support for me and I was scared like hell of living my life without being able to call him whenever I felt bad.But I did it anyway,I fell in love with a guy who was my first love.But started taking xanax again.He was a heroin-addict and as I was trying to save him,I dig myself into this circle once again.Now I'm taking xanax for 2 years already,and I'm guessing it's an addiction already.I moved in with him and It's hard for me to leave him for I do love him but the anxiety thing is going mad again.And pretty much driving me crazy.(kinda used to it already[:P]).I crave for the support of my ex bf who made me feel safe and happy,but it's something dead and gone and I'm on my own with this time.
Huh...Alright,maybe I've went to far with this introduction thing.[:P]
Anyway I wanted to say hello everybody,I'm from Croatia,and yes,i have a same problem as all of you do.Though I'm pretty much used to it already,so it doesn't freak me out THAT much anymore.[8)]
