Hey all I only joined yesterday, I started having horrendous full blown panic attacks about a year ago. I started calling 999 on a regular basis as I constantly thought I was having a heart attack , I kept feeling my pulse and had the whole skipped beat going on and was convinced there was something wrong with me, I could have up to 4-5 attacks a day. I was placed on citalopram at first but am currently taking venflaxine, I have to say medication has defiantly worked for me of course medication takes some getting used to at first , I do sometimes have days where anxiety creeps in but with the help of CBT I’m learning how to change my mind set , if your having panic attacks don’t let it take over go see the doctor because they’re are many ways to combat this, I don’t have support network around me as my mother thinks I should just get a grip but we all know it’s not that easy! :)
