hello all,

i'm so relieved to have found this site.

a little bit about me - my father passed away last month & i had my first panic attack the week before he died, it was very frightening. since then i have had many more, the worst one was this week.

i spend an awful lot of time on my own, i'm basically looking for support as at present i have my hubby to turn to who is finding things difficult to deal with plus he works away/long hours.

thanks for reading

thank you all for your kind words. it seems after reading about anxiety i have had it for many years but its got worse, i'm a bag of nerves lately obviously my fathers illness & passing has contributed to this. after a bad weekend spending most of it arguing with my husband i'm finding it increasingly difficult to cope with everything. there has been a catalogue of traumatic events which has led me to where i am today, i'm exhausted, i want to be free of all this mental anguish & move forward in my life.

i think the thing that i find most difficult to deal with is the way society deals with people who suffer from depression & anxiety, the ignorance is shocking, this in itself makes life more unbearable.

take care all x
