Hello everyone :)

I'm Jess, 18, and I've had severe panic attacks for about 4 years. At one point they were so bad I couldnt leave the house.
After coming to uni - a step that I was so so not ready for and yet has helped me grow so much - my panics have got slightly better. This is mostly due to all my friends' support which I dont think I could ever do without.

I honest to God appreciate this website - I use the chatroom a lot, especially in the middle of a panic attack when I cant get hold of anyone.

I would love any replies: you're more then welcome. I'm just so happy to have found someplace I can write down what I feel and be understood!

Hello Jess and welcome to NMP.

I have an 18 year old nephew in his first year of college and I worry about him a lot as he is very sensitive. I am really glad that you have friends to support you and I do hope you continue to improve.

Please send me a pm at anytime as I started having panic attacks in my teens and remember well the sense of isolation I felt.

Take care
