Hi all
My Names Dave and I've been suffering from Generalised anxiety disorder for four months now. It just came on out of the blue, panick attacks and such like. I've been signed off work for four months as I cant face leaving going back for fear of another panick attack. I'm 28 years old and have had no mental problems untill this happened and I'm at the end of my tether now.
I've been reading through some of the posts before I joined and its comforting to know that there are other people who are going through what I am. Somedays it seems like there will not be an end to the suffering. I've bought some self help books on CBT and they have helped a little. Although I still find it hard to face each day.
But hey ho I'm still alive - I've leant that much you wont die from a panic attack of anxiety symptoms no matter how bad they are. :yesyes:
