can you relate?
Hi, i'm 26. All my life i have had constant high anxiety levels. Always had high general anxiety through my school years. Started to have panic attacks when i was 19 in a summer job.
While i was in university started to have trouble socialising with others e.g. eating in front of people, getting the shakes when i have drink. But still managed to get through university with an education...
After that i started work, i was taken to place where i new nobody and had to cope on my own. i perceivered, coped and been working for 4 years :yesyes:. Although i was unhappy in my personal life e.g. never felt relaxed enough to go to a pub or go on a date.:weep:
Then a year and a half ago things got really bad, while at work six months into a newjob. I started to shake and get terrible neck tension, neck cramp and headaches. So one day after being put under a lot pressure at work, i started having extreme anxiety, panic attacks, neck cramp which increased my anxiety again. I left the job and have not worked since.
So at the moment i'm doing meds thing, self help and councilling thingy, to see if i can my "mojo" back. but the thing that worries me even if get to a state where i can cope, i still think the road ahead its going to be a lonely one.:weep:
has any body else had the same or similar experience as myself?
