Hi guys,
I was a regular on her a few months ago. I was convinced I had a brain tumour. I was hvaing panic attaks every single day and it was a struggle for me to leave the house. I have two young boys and was petrified i was going to leave them without a mother.
I was having many physical symptoms such as tingling feeling down the right side of my face, this would last for hours, head zaps as i used to call them, my eyes couldnt focus on things etc
I started off having CBT which i didnt find great tbh. my gp wanted me to take ADs but i never took them. in the end what worked for me was exercise every evening, healthy diet and i also take Valarian tablets which i got from the health food store. i removed anything or anyone that was causing me stress from my life and I am just a completely different person for it, after a few weeks all my physical symptoms disappeared and i havnet had a panic attack since.
I am still a worrier about my health, for example, if i had a very bad headache i would start to worry but it doesnt take over my life in any way so i am happy. :yesyes:
