Hi

I know I have been down this road before.

First time I had anxiety I was doing exams at fifteen.

Things are pretty rough at work at moment.

Am afraid to go into work tomorrow and don't want to burden people.

Been a six months or so since i was at doctor.

Am on Efexor XL of 150 per day.

Don't feel doc listens enough to reassure.

Can't help not convincing myself something is physically wrong.

Feel so helpless at present.

Tightness in chest, feel like i can't breath.

In some ways it has been so long since i suffered very badly i think i may have forgotten coping mechanisms.

Any advice ?

Thanks

Paddy
