I have done it twice (once over 10 years ago and again just last year) and the befriending group as well.

It was good to talk to people in the same situation as you.

Looking back over the years, how wonderful it would have been to be able to pick up the phone and speak to someone while at the height of panic. I see they offer books, CD's and video's as well. It was a very lonely, isolated time indeed before the Internet came along.

Sorry Milly, should have explained better follow this link: http://www.nopanic.org.uk/menu.htm i am so far finding it useful and a good base to talk to others on the phone with same problems as me with a counseller guiding the conversation, i would recommend it to you! It costs £10 to join and then the 14 week counselling course is free (well the price of a phone call once a week) , but i did have to wait about 6 weeks to start as there is a bit of a waiting list. They tend to try and match up people in each group of about 6 people with similar problems ie: agraphobia, GAD, Social Phobia, panic attacks etc... there are seperate groups for those with OCD as well.
Hope thats some help. C xxx
