friends....i need you......

[calm]

hi dear friends, for the last eight weeks i have been going down and i am desperate - the high anxiety and panic attacks are killing me and i dont know wot to do!
my job does not help as i work from home because of my crohns disease and i feel so isolated. also kerrylouise is not too good we have hospital appointment on the 7th april and i am oh so scared that i wont make it to the appoinment.
my meds were increased (fluoxetine) to 40mg about i would say 5 weeks ago....but they havent made a jot of difference.
i must apologies for not being on here that often but have been trying to battle on my own....but i need some help and advice.

You have coped before and I'm sure you will get through this. See your counsellor if you can and let your GP know the new dose does not seem to be helping.

Try to distract yourself if you can to give your mind another focus. Listen to music, do housework, gardening, whatever you can do that can help to switch off.

Take care.

Hi darling girl x
Ive left you a detailed reply on FB this morning, so I wont go into it again here. But I want to say, that you are loved, and a well respected member of this forum. Coming back to ask for help is what NMP is about. You are not a failure or weak asking for help, you are strong because you recognise you need help. Its quiet here this time of day, Im sure you will get more replies later, so I will bump this up. Get through today, thats all, just today. We will deal with tomorrow when it comes. One day at a time Calm ok. I will check into FB later ok. Love and huge hugs to a little fighter.....P x
