Hello everyone. New to the site and new to anxiety. I recently had a bout of a strange sensation in my stomach and I would go to bed and be very uncomfortable but wasn't able to describe what it was that I was actually battling. It got so worrying for me that I resorted to A+E because it was keeping me up night after night. Despite being told that I was fine and the feeling having finally gone away, now every night I wake up several times over with anxiety. I've never felt anything like it before- it's horrendous and draining. My GP has put me on 10mg Citalopram and it's been three days... I'm aware that it's going to take time for this to begin to help. I just feel such a mess. The poor rest is making me feel ill and I don't know how to stop the panic coming in my sleep, it's like it's sneaking up on me. I figure as with everything, a little talking, a little support, a little positive thinking and constructiveness can go a long way so I'm here on the forum. I hope we can all find our way to feeling better together.
