Hi all,
I'm a long time sufferer of anxiety and panic attacks mainly triggered by eating out. I simply can't do it. If i attempt too my mind is flooded with anxiety and I lose all appetite & have to leave. Fortunately I hardly ever find myself in the situation but I'm posed with one situation I can't easily get out of... Christmas dinner with the girlfriends family for the 1st time. :scared15:
She knows my issue & has been good to me but she's become unsympathetic & not willing to let me make another excuse. I don't blame her really because I haven't attempted to sort myself out, it's been far to easy to not face it but now I feel like I'm going into a boxing match having not stepped foot in the gym.
I could do with some guidance or any suggestions to help kerb my anxiety without losing appetite. I have got some Diazepam but a bit scared to take it.
Thanks :hugs:
