Hi all,
I've not posted on here for a while and I feel guilty about it. This forum was a lifeline to me. Even though I made few posts, reading others made it a LOT easier for me to cope.
I just want to say.... I feel so much BETTER!!! AND SO CAN YOU!!!!!
I went to my GP (my new one - I moved areas) and although I thought my old GP was very sympathetic, he just didn't 'fix' me like my new one has.
I am on prozac, have stopped smoking (which has made a massive difference to my attacks - HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT) and I am seeing a CBT therapist.
I believe it's a mixture of these things that have made me feel so much better. I had the right doctor, the right medication and the right therapist.
I don't want to sound like I'm boasting, I just want to show you the light at the end of the tunnel. If I can feel 95% better after 4 months of treatment after 5 years of feeling so anxious and depressed that I was almost suicidle, so can you.
Please please please keep searching for the right doc, meds and therapist.
If this just makes someone feel a tiny bit better then I will be so glad. Good luck to all of you and big hugs xxxx :bighug1:
