Hi there...

[Lol52]

Hi Everyone,
Joined the group as find it difficult to find kindred spirits, even though I have fabulous family and friends.
I had a massive breakdown 2 months ago, it started with one humongous panic attack...that basically didn't go away for over 2 weeks, it would subside then rear up again , it came with the terrible anxiety and deep depression...felt like I was in hell. Thankfully I have a really good gp who saw me regularly those first weeks, which helped, I am on 20mg of citalopram which seem to be working and waiting for a cbt appt, which my gp said will help the most.
Any way sorry for rattling on, I still have good and bad days and at the moment terrible tiredness...but I also think going through the menopause contributes to that too.
Look forward to learning more from those that 'know'

Hi Lol,

You've come to the right place.

We've all been through something similar, and there is a way out.

What triggered the panic attack?
