Thought I better introduce myself. I've been visiting this website since April and have found it a great source of information and support. I've always been anxious to one degree or another, but things came to a head in April. I think it was because I stopped treating my anxiety with alcohol!! Unfortunately the drinking was adding to my anxiety and not suppressing it anymore.

Anyway, to cut along story short... Anxiety lead to depression, which lead to a visit to the gp. After a bad reaction to paroxetine (which I took in the past with no problem) I am now taking citalopram 30mg and propanolol 10mg three times a day.

Just returned to work after four months off. I'm on phased return, but struggling again with anxiety again. Off to see the gp again on Thursday as I don't wont to end up back in the state I was in in April.

Cheers everyone and I hope the intro wasn't too long!!!
