Hi everyone just to introduce myself.. im 37 and been a sufferer of anxiety and panic attacks since the age of 21.. at the age of 30 this developed into agoraphobia which left me house bound for just over 3 years .. I then managed to overcome this for the last 4 years .. however 4 days ago I had a bad attack outdoors and since then I've hardly ventured from the house. this morning I decided to try and post a letter ,the post box is about a 5 minute walk. I felt my heart racing and felt another bad attack coming on .. its hard to believe that this time last week I was sat on a train travelling over 100 miles without a problem.. anyway thats just a bit about me.. Thanks Tony

:welcome:to NMP Tony. You have beaten this before and can do so again. Your nerves have become sensitised and this will pass. Do not be too impressed by the agorophobia even though many of us know how powerful this seems. Go out even with the panic, if only for a few minutes each day and kick Agorophobia's butt.:bighug1:
