Hi everybody this is my first post here so I thought I would say a bit about myself.
I have struggled with anxiety and panic for years, most of the time I have managed to keep it under control but every few years I seem to go through another wave of it, Ive had lots of the strange feelings that go along with it like thumping heart and cant sleep and even feeling like I have pins and needles all over my body.
At the moment I am struggling with it again but this time its got to my eating, been a few weeks now since I have managed to eat a proper meal as every time I got to eat I get the food into my mouth and have a mini panic attack trying to swallow it. sounds strange I know but feels very real to me. Ive lost a lot of weight with it and at the moment am very tired because of it. Ive tried seeing the doctor about it without much luck. Dont really know where to go next with it to be quite honest.
At the moment I am getting by by just eating what I can when I can so just tiny snacks really but its better than nothing. I have spent hours surfing the net looking for ideas on what to do about it but no luck so far.
Im sat here at the moment by myself with the anxiety spreading over me like a wave which isnt very nice, Guess I will just have to try deep breaths or something till it passes.
Cant think what else to write for the moment but would be happy to hear if anybody else has had similar problems and where they have manged to get help
regards
