Hi, I am new to this forum and have learnt a lot about the symptoms I am experiencing anxiety and depression. Previously I worked as a teacher but due to a family bereavement, workplace bullying and the gas boiler catching fire. Four months ago the illness took over my life and I left my job.
I live alone and the anxiety has got worst fear and panic attacks have taken over my life and my mind plays tricks on me. Recently the doctor prescribed an antidepressant for the anxiety but I had a bad reaction to the tablet waking up shaking, my heart was racing I ended up in the hospital emergency. I used to be a confident outgoing person but this has now changed.
I joined this site so I could understand what was going on with my body and mind and share my experience. I am a worrier, I can have a panic attack just thinking about going to bed or watching TV.
Today I learnt how to manage my diet and the vitamins I should take. This site has given me hope and I look forward to discussing and learning about the illness, I now realise that I am not alone. Thank you to all who contributed to the site. :D
