View Full Version : Hiya
Hiya folks
Im Rory, 23m from Hamilton near Glasgow.
Have been having problems with panic and anxiety since I was about 18, when I started college. Have had problems with feeling trapped or confined, always looking for escape routes. Currently have similar problems to Nicola, that is being stuck in traffic or roadworks...
I had been doing ok until june this year, when I panicked badly driving to work. That week I declined badly until I was unable to go to work and became agoraphobic.
I am not comfortable more than about 10 mins from home, worried Ill panic etc. and its then a major stress to try and drive back.
Have been slowly getting a bit better, venturing a little further... its slow going but I am determined to get back on track. Too much stuff going on im missing out on !
I have spoken to a few people in the chat room and they are a friendly bunch :) Hope to speak to some more of you soon.
All the best
Rory.

Hi Rory
Welcome aboard - good to see you here and nice chatting to you the last couple of nights.
I am gradually getting better with the driving - taking a long time but you may like to read a couple of posts I did this week ...
Mind Games (http://www.nomorepanic.co.uk/showthread.php?t=1789)
A Bridge too Far (http://www.nomorepanic.co.uk/showthread.php?t=1788)
My only advise is to keep at it - over and over again and take a look at the Coping page on my website for some tips on coping whilst driving.
Don't let it beat you ok?
The mind is very powerful and it has convinced you that you can't do it but you can and you will in time. There is nothing to stop you getting back out there and doing it and we will support you along the way ok?
Good luck and let us know if you need any advise on anything specific.

Hi Rory ,
Welcome to the site
Its hard when you think you've been doing ok and then get a fright and think you're going backwards.
It is in reality a blip - and can be overcome in the same way as you managed the original malady as you're finding.
Take care

It is impossible to get out of a problem by using the same kind of thinking that it took to get into it.

How are you feeling and how is it going mate?

Scooter Girl - Glad to hear youre doing ok :) Have been reading some of the forum and looking out for useful tips.
Sal - I've been quite good the last few days, been able to get out a bit further from home and staying pretty calm. So I've made some fairly good progress this week I think.
All the best
Rory.
