Hi guys.
As some of you may know ive had severe problems with daily panic attacks for about 9 months now and have become housebound and lost an incredible amount of weight. I've tried more or less every medication, remedy and technique available.
Although my panic attacks have subsided my general anxiety has hit the roof and my depression continues to spiral and I feel I've hit rock bottom.
I'm tormented by horrific nightmares every time I sleep and I have developed a strong fear of bedtime. I normally stay awake until I basically collapse or pass out and sleep for all!most a day at the time, waking up in panic because of another nightmare again.
I also have a huge sickness and disease phobia as well as general health phobia and the thought of eating is terrifying to me and if and when I finally give into my hunger pains I get into an absolute state about it and will worry about what I've eaten for hours.
I'm terrified of leaving the house and of those who have come to my house in fear that they have brang back disease and in all honesty I can't live like this anymore.
I'm not suicidal but I just need so me help and reassurance. I don't have any friends, my family aren't as supportive as they used to be, if anything they just get annoyed and the love of my life who is a true hero to me has to work and can't be with me 24/7
Please help. I'm scared these habits are going to literally be the death of me.:(((
