Hi,
I would just like to thank all those who replied to my panic attacks & driving post - it was all very helpful advice and its great to find some people who understand.
As I am a new member I don't know whether this topic has come along before, but when I last saw my gynacologist he said that the brain is oestrogen-dependent and as we become older we can become more anxious as the oestrogen supplies diminish. Has anyone else heard of this? I am now on very low dose of HRT and definitely feel better (apart from the driving of course!).
Thanks
Izza
