Hi
I am 28 years old and I suffer with anxiety and panic. I have had this for just over a year. I had been on lexapro and continue to go to CBT. I thought the hardest thing would be to come off the meds... I was doing really well but the panic and anxiety has come back with a vengence. I recently had to call an ambulance and go to A & E, I was driving to work on my own and had to pull in to the side of the road. 2nd time I had to do this.
I am finding it quite hard to do anything, even normal day to day things are tough and cause me to get anxious. I have missed a lot of work but I luckily I have an understanding boss.
I just find that I can't get to grips with this... Health anxiety, negative thinking, panic anxiety... I am sure you all feel this way but it's saps so much energy that at the moment I feel like I have no motivation...This isn't me, I was happy confident and outgoing.... don't feel like that anymore.. and I am nearly sick of my own voice moaning... Even going to work on the bus is a stuggle...
Does anyone else feel like this or any helpful suggestions..
Trying to stay positive anyways.. So that's me pretty summed up...
Regards
