    Hi VickieX

    Don't dispair. Have you been to see your doctor? I know sometimes it can be hard to open up honestly to a doctor but do!!

    Explain everything to him/her and don't be fobbed off. Ask about speaking to someone who understands your situation. I attended a councillor who helped me put things in perspective. As it is, with the councillor and listening to Dr Claire Weekes's mp3 audio files, I personally feel good now. I still have little bouts of anxiety but not to the extent I used to have them. As Dr Weekes explained, 'flashbacks' will occur but will get less and less in intensity the longer I stick with the technique.

    i find it very hard to tell my doctor what goes through my head.
    because all she says is
    we can't prescribe any anti anxieties or anti depressants to people under the age of 18.

    =(

    According to this from The Royal College of Psychiatrists
    Although none of the antidepressants are licensed for use in people under the age of 18, they can be prescribed by child and adolescent psychiatrists, after a careful assessment. Weekly monitoring of how the young person is feeling will happen in the first four weeks, and then regularly after that.

    Vickie, I had a lot of problems during my last year at college.

    I spoke to my tutor before I went back after the summer about all my anxiety/panic problems and she explained how she could help.

    I found a lot of my panic about going back to college came from 'what if's'. Once she provided solutions I felt a lot more relaxed.

    Maybe you should speak to someone at your college?

    Oh Vickie, hang in there. It can be hard and I really hope you get all the support you need.

    It might be worth gong back to your doctor, has your college got a good counselling service or support group.

    If you can achieve blotting out the "what if's" then you can turn the situation around.

    Take loads of care and you will will alright.

    GOOD LUCK.
