Hi,My user name is Goss I have just found this forum after frantically searching for anxiety,
I have been a long term sufferer of panic and anxiety in 2010/11 I had a nervous breakdown and my doctor put me on antidepressants propranolol and a tranquilliser thankfully the latter 2 I no longer need, and I am on 10mg of citalopram now,
Tonight I have felt very anxious has I have a cold and I get a phobia of no sense of smell and taste, also blocked nose, may sound silly, but stems back from 9 years ago when I had a bad flu virus, and when I get a common cold I start with severe panic attacks I have to have my bedroom window open in case I feel trapped, and that I need to escape, may sound silly, but the fear is intense, I can't sleep,
I hope people on this forum can help my anxiety
Goss
