hi guys
I have been a memeber of NMP website for about a month- there were so many times i tried to write something on this but couldnt- i now feel strong enough to introduce myself.
I have had general anxiety symptoms for about a year now but took my first "panic attack" in January this year -was in the local shopping centre and i honestly thought i was going to die- since then i have undergone counselling and used online services and books to go over CBT. I am on medication from the docs and feel a lot lot better than i did at the start of this year but i am still not my "old self again."
I still get panicky when i have to go places and have physical symptoms of anxiety- like everyone else - i have good days and bad.
Suppose am just really frustrated right now coz i feel like i take 5 steps forwardd then have a bad day and go back again- just wish some1 would give me a date and time where i would feel well again or say here take these tablets 3 a day for a week and you'll be right as rain- no its never gonna happen but at least i can accept it now and manage my anxiety
Feel this website is fantastic and has helped me so so much, - never before did i feel like i would be able to tell complete strangers about what i am going through but they say strangers are just friends you havent met yet so here i am :)
