Hi again
I used to come on this site a few months ago and it was a great help. I took some medication to get me over my anxiety, and thought it had changed my life, only to be told I cldnt take it long term, and so now I am back to virtually unable to do anything due to anxiety and its unbearable to the point of where I have never wanted or thought to take my life, to now becoming the solution I keep thinking of. There were no major issues in my life, I just suddenly became anxious almost overnight it seems. My gp prescribed diazepam which helped but he cldnt keep me on it cos of it being so addictive. I have cbt which to be honest is doing nothing to help, other than giving me an insight into anxiety, but with the best will in the world, relaxation techniques do nothing for me personally, they just dont seem to help apart from the time I am doing them but I cant sit deep breathing constantly. I came back to the site cos at least I know there are people here in similar situations. I dont know what to do anymore. I wake in a deep panic, I spend the day shaking with anxiety, I am vomiting lots, I hardly eat and have lost weight. I feel that this is no way to live. I have a wonderful partner but I can tell, despite him saying otherwise, that how I am is getting to him. I need to know if I will ever get better or will I be like this forever. Has anyone been like how I am and got better? Any help would be so appreciated. A big Hello to any people on here who I used to message with back in April. Love Carla xx
