Hey Marion,
Welcome to the site!!
I also have the same problems as you and have found this site to be a lifesaver. You will find lots of advice and support here.
Are you on any medication, or receiving any help?

Hi Marion
Welcome to the forum. Some antidepressant medication is also prescribed to treat anxiety, although it is personal choice whether you want to go this route or not.
Have you considered seeing a therapist?
Take a look at the First Steps (http://www.nomorepanic.co.uk/default.asp?t=cms&c=firststeps) article.
No Panic (http://www.nopanic.org.uk/menu.htm) run a telephone CBT course that has been helpful for others. You might like to read Maxine's cbt progress. (http://www.nomorepanic.co.uk/showthread.php?t=2308) for some inspiration and encouragement.

It is not easy to find happiness in ourselves, and it is not possible to find it elsewhere.
Hi Marion,
Welcome to the forum, you will get a lot of good advice and make some good friends here. Anti depressents are also used to treat anxiety and panic attacks, so maybe you should give them a go.
Take care

its "just a thought"
Hey,
I too am on anti-depressants, and I also didn't think i was depressed, but sometimes its just worrying about the problem(panics, agoraphobia etc)that can make you feel so low.
Perhaps you should consider taking them as i have found they have really helped me in dealing with the problems i have.
I am also have CBT, which is very good. Has your GP ever mentioned it to you?

Your anxiety is the human representation of the pictures that you paint using your many vivid colours of revolving and reoccurring thoughts.
How big is your gallery ?
Welcome aboard!! :D

Hi Marion
A big welcome to the site.
You will find lots of help and support here.
I suffer with panic attacks ang anxiety.
I have just stopped using diazepam and am now taking Citalopram which, as I understand it, is for panic and anixety as well as depression. I dind't think I was depressed, but although I didn't want to take medication, have gone with the flow and it has made a huge difference to me.
I am laughing again and I mean really laughing!!!!:D:D, but everyone is different and what is right for one, is not the best thing for the next.
I have also started a course of CBT - which again is helping.
If you haven't already visit the therapy and remedies forums - Lots of interesting posts and ideas.
All the best

Thought having talked in the chat room this evening I should have said welcome to NMP
I hope the chatroom was of help and that you are feeling better.
Just remember it's always darkest before the dawn and just take it one step at a time.
