I've been suffering with anxiety and panic for 5 months and am currently on cipralex for treatment. I went out tonight and I decided to drive since I don't drink. On the way home we had 6 people in a 5 seater. And just my luck, I got pulled over. I don't know if you guys know but the police in South Africa are dangerous and abusive. I was heavily mistreated and instead of just getting a fine, the officer told me that I was being arrested and started abusing me verbally. I went into a full blown panic and anxiety attack, i tried to ask for assistance and water but was refused this. Eventually my dad arrived and the police attitude changed and somehow they let me go, they were just looking for a bribe. But now I think I'm suffering from after anxiety feelings and struggle to get my mind of this. Even If I report the policeman nothing will happen as my country is so corrupt and false (can't wait to immigrate). Any advice on how to get over this??? I'm really anxious and panicky??? I feel sick!!
