You are not alone. There is a lot of help out there if you need it. Your first point of contact should be your gp and hopefully they will be able to help. Ther are always people on here or are willing to listen and will try and help. A lot of people on here have been through or are going through the same as you so they can relate to what your saying. Keep going dont ever give in:flowers:

I remember feeling how you do now, i used to wake up every single day full of anxiety and panic, terrible health anx aswell as agoraphobia, the horrible feeling of impending doom, i never ever thought i would ever feel better again.

I don't suffer with them anymore, still battle with the agoraphobia but i'm 90% better than i was last year.

It won't last forever tracey, try and hold on to that thought.

Reading the Dr Claire Weekes books helped me out of the anxiety state.

Do whatever it takes, reading, distraction, anything but don't let it win, this is your life and there is no room in it for anxiety so go kick its backside.

Hi sweetie, I completely understand where you're coming from...we all do!

I have good and bad days, but I try to think back to how I was last Christmas...in a psychiatric ward, and how far I've actually come...yes the anxiety, panic and feelings of helplessness are still with me, but with everybody helping each other on this fab forum, we'll conquer it together!

And things can only get better...crikey, I feel a song :whistles:coming on, and I wouldn't wish my singing on my worst enemy...:blush:

I hope you begin to feel a bit better soon,

Take care,

Sue x :flowers:

Wow, you lot on here amaze me with your courage, stories and advice.

Calm - you really are not alone. Friends and/or families are a lifeline, you need to talk to people. See your GP immediately. I think its worse if you keep things to yourself, your own thoughts can be your worst enemy, but getting things out there, in the open and talking to people, can give you some light at the end of the tunnel.

Sending you loads of strength and I know you can do it!! xxx

hiiiiii heavenly....i am understand my gp - have been on cits 20mg for five weeks and on friday she introduced propranolol 10mg x 2 one in the morning and one in the evening but they havent touched my anxiety/panic...i go back to gp next week and see a councellor next week also.
i just want them to kick in and make a difference...i had to take a diaz today 2mg as well!!!!
thank you for your words of comfort...stressful time at the moment...my daughter kerrylouise is seeing a consultant on wednesday re: kidney problems and everything has just got on top of me! life!!!!!!!!! but you know wot...i have all you lovely people....i said to a contact of mine on here that i hope she does not get bored with me....and i hope and pray that i am not too much of a drain or too high maintenance .....i am so so sorry for being so high maintenance at the moment.
thank you for the strength you are sending me.....thank you heavenly xxxx

Bless your heart, you have a child as well! I don't but find it hard to even dress myself, so you are doing so well, really!

You would never be a drain, so don't even think it!! I keep apologising to other half and sis for being a burden last 3 days but they tell me not to be silly, its what families are for. There are times in our life when we all need a bit of extra help.

Glad you are seeing a counsellor. I have my first session on Thursday. I know I need to take meds for a while, at least, but the most important thing is getting to the root of the problem, and face my problems and what is bothering me, its the only way.

Loads of love and strength. xx

Awful isn't it, instead of being glad we feel 'ok', we start worrying 'when will it start again!'. Deary me, we are our worst enemies, aren't we! :wacko:

I just think, for me anyway, that I hit rock bottom on Friday and Saturday and thought I would never feel like 'me' again, yet today, I have been for a long walk this morning with my sis and nephew and played with him in the park, and tonight, have just been for a 2 hour walk with my other half, I know its mid-night now, but I wanted the fresh air! lol I could never have done that 2 days ago, so I know there is light at the end of the tunnel. Stay strong and just enjoy the times you feel 'normal'. xxx

Don't be hard on yourself, if you need to see the GP before then, then ring up first thing in the morning and get a same day, that is what I do. Look after yourself!! ;-) xxx

Poor, poor you. I have dredged the depths in the last few days and I so know how you feel. Have you tried medication? After taking diazepam for less than I day, I feel like a different person. Take heart - it doesn't have to be like this all the time - it will get better. Jac xxxxx

Ive had 4(i think) major relapses since I started getting panic attacks when I was 18 and each time within a few months Im improving daily, so this wont be it for the rest of your life I promise!.
When it gets very bad your body will be anxiety sensitive. This means that its almost geared up for the anxiety. I would imagine youre in that stage at the moment. To get past this you need to really work hard on relaxing.
Every morning no matter how hard the anxiety is hitting work on relaxing every muscle in your body. You can get some good cds that will lead you through this practise. You'll need to keep doing this as often as you can fit it in, but make sure its done first thing each day!

When I was going through my really bad patch earlier this year I would wake up and almost feel my blood fizzing with the stress hormones. Doing the relaxation really helped to get rid of that feeling.

I hope this helps! You will get through this!

Any book in particular, Diane? I keep hearing her name.

Thank you for sharing that you are so much better, this has started for me big-time last Friday, really really bad and terrifying, I feel hopeless that I will always feel like this, but I keep telling myself that things do improve for people. I am having counselling starting tonight as well. Thank you. xxx
