Hello everyone!
This might seem like a silly question,but how do I go about getting a diagnosis?(or not as the case may be :3)
I've been having what I think are panic attacks (nope, definitely panic attacks), and anxiety for about 2 years, but the only thing I've had from my doctor is a year + of citalopram and recently a letter to my uni asking that in the case I have a panic attack, can I leave the exam room for five minutes!
I'm not sure however how I go about getting a formal diagnosis, or not!
I only ask as I'd like to have something to show to my uni that I do suffer from anxiety, as attending lectures has become more and more hellish, and to have special dispensation you have to have a DSA (think that's what it's called), for which you need a diagnosis..
Sorry if this has sounded a bit rambled!
Thanks so much for reading.
