Hi all, I figured this could be a good place to ask about this. Since having to wear the face masks I've been generally fine with them, but because I have an anxiety/panic disorder there have been times when I've been at work or on the bus where my anxiety has built and of course that panic mixed with the mask I'm wearing has made things worse. Until today I thought only those with physical illnesses or severe disabilities didn't have to wear a face mask, but I have been informed that actually I should be exempt due to my anxiety/panic disorder? I have since contacted my Dr to find out about this since I had absolutely no idea and knowing I'm exempt would have come in very handy when I've found myself in really panicky situations.
Does anyone know the exact rules? I live in the UK.
