Hi everyone, I'm new here and I have been in tears having read some of your experiences. I know now that I am not the only person in the world experiencing this....[V]
I had been two years anxiety free when I had an attack last Sunday morning. I had everything going for me. I had moved into my new house four days before with my fantastic man and had just been accepted in to the police service in London - a lifelong dream. Then, out of the blue.....WHAM:(
I am distraught that this has happened now - and am so disappointed in myself.
I purchased a programme from the internet called 'Panic Away' and it seems to be full of sound advice - but I am struggling to see it through.
Since the latest attack, I have been constantly on edge and feeling incredibly sick and low. However, what I'm finding is that as the day goes on, I seem to get a bit better, apart from the occasional blip. By the evening, I feel like I am winning the battle so I go to bed feeling fairly happy and confident.
But, when I wake up in the morning, as soon as I open my eyes, I seem to get a rush of adrenaline, an increased heartrate and nasuea. Does anyone have any ideas how to combat this? I feel so powerless against it.
Oh, final question...I haven't eaten anything properly since Sunday morning (it's Thursday now) and I am very hungry...Trouble is, I have zero appetite for anything - and even if I did, as I feel so sick, I would be worried about vomitting. Can anyone relate?
Thanks to the mods for a well needed forum. x
