Hi
I had my first anxiety attack just over 2 wks ago while I was in the office. Since then I've had one more at home, and 2 more in the office. I left work last week as I was too nervous, agitated and have been off-work since. I've also been a lot calmer. I live alone and have few friends outside work. Today I rang the office and said I'd like to go back to work next week - my boss was very kind and supportive, but I'm terrified that the same thing will happen again and that the trigger is something to do with work. My GP has recommended I go for counselling but that won't start for weeks. I don't know what I'll do if I can't work.
