Hello, I've just found this forum, and I'm really pleased!
I've suffered from panic attacks all my life (33 years!), although they've only been diagnosed as such in the last 10 years or so. Recently they have been really bad and I am currently taking fluoxetine and propranolol to try to control them. It's helping, but it isn't fixing the problem......
I suffer from what I've seen described on here as "the throat problem" - except that I go from being OK to retching with nothing in between. That is virtually my only symptom. Some days I'm completely unable to speak for more than a few seconds at a time, and I tend to avoid people because of that. My friends and work are very understanding though so that is good. :yesyes:
Anyway, enough about me. I'll look forward to getting to know you all over the next few weeks and months!
