Hi,
Im here to remind myself that I can overcome anxiety and do not have to panic anymore!! (Easier said than done!)

Actually recently its not been so bad, since I moved from London to Cyprus with my lovely boyfriends who's posted here with the RAF.

I joined today looking for some sympton advise but have found the site far more useful than I could have expected and realised I forgot just how many people deal and live with anxiety/panic issues like myself.

Unfortunately I've been a long-suffer of depressed and manic moods which I've had since I was quite little but it wasnt until last year that I started to experience quite aggresive panic attacks to the point of passing out. Since then my anxiety has mainly been that of fearing another panic attack, especially in a public place!! It made going to work on the Tube a nightmare and even going out with friends was a problem. I was petrified of putting 'bad' things into my body including alcohol, sugar, caffeine, niccotine, staying up too late.

Anyway these days I am far better and I owe a lot to my boyfriend who really helped realise that a lot of the things I was worrying about (and still do) were in most cases, imagined!!

I get sweaty palms now and again and I still have a excruciating fear/paranoia of hangovers but on those days I tend to just hide under the duvet and sleep it off and Im led to believe thats normal in most peoples' case anyway :winks:

Well there you go, prob nowt you havent heard before but thats me and so I bid you a good and non-anxious day!! :yahoo:
