Hi Hannah

I expect the medication you are taking is for anxiety ?

Not sure how long you have been taking it

It can take several weeks before it works , so if you havnt been on it long , then give it a bit longer

If you have been taking it a while you need to go & see your GP & let them no you are not feeling any better & maybe they would change the dose or review your meds

I totally understand the fear of leaving the house , i have the same fear & its something I need to work on

Maybe if you could tell us a little more , it would help to no more of what we maybe able to suggest

Keep talking though & things will get better , i no it may not feel like it at the moment , but it will in time

Love

Hi Hannah, I feel the same as you, I'm scared to leave the house, this is a new thing for me. Had panics for the last 20 yrs, my tablets I feel are not working so I'm trying to speak to the dr over the phone for maybe a change in tablets. Going to the dr's is just a nightmare, I refuse to sit in the waiting room and have to go outside and wait also if I'm not seen in about 10mins I'm threatening to leave!

I hope my rants mean something to you, do ring the dr's.

Take care

Hi Hannah, It sounds as though you are having a tough time and I feel for you. Have you thought about having some therapy through this charity? You can have it over the phone or via webcam (Skype). It could be a good option for you because you are not able to leave the house. Stay strong and keep pushing back that anxiety! Best wishes.
