Recently i've been experiencing panic attacks and I am now suffering from anxiety, i'm 18 years old and you could say i've had a lot of stress put on me over the past few years but then again who hasn't? I was fine up until two weeks ago when I went out with some friends for some drinks and a night out and my drink ended up being spiked. I woke up the next morning feeling awful and convinced myself that I would feel better the next day, but I didnt. After a few days i still didnt feel my normal self and so these thoughts starting climbing their way into my head, and i was telling myself that something stronger was put in my drink and its still in my system, I began scaring myself with all these thoughts that eventually an extremely big panic attack came over me and I was so scared I didnt know how to cope. After i was calmed down i started feeling edgy and scared and I wasnt able to sit in one place for too long, thats when I went to the doctors and they told me im suffering with anxiety, they've put me on medication to calm me down and after finding this brilliant website I finally feel like I can help myself overcome being anxious everytime I leave my house. Sorry i ranted on, but thank you :)
