Anxiety Support

Serious need of help

This is my first time on anything like this, I've always suffered with anxiety, but always suffered in silence, last year I finally spoke up got some meds and a but of group therapy, all was kinda well until I came of the meds the beginning of this year, slowly it's back, I've had several night terrors, 4 weeks into a new job they have got worse, I'm being sick all the time, not sleeping, not eating, crying all the time I seriously can't face work, I feel like I've set myself up to fail trying to start fresh, I went to a walk in centre the doc was so caring gave me 4 days of diazepam told me to see my GP for a sick note and some new meds, yesterday I saw a doctor, who seemed very un caring told me to come of the diazepam, she's given no other meds and has referred to me to a councillor that can take 4 weeks, any advice on what I can do as I can't wait that long I'm a wreck !

Welcome specialspecs

Its a first for most of us joining a site , so dont worry you will soon get used to it & see you are not alone & what lovely people are on here ready to give support where they can

This does happen sometimes , that when people come of meds after a while they can go down a little , but you can & will get back up again

Now that GP . doesnt sound very good at all , some do have this attitude , which is of no help when we are suffering

I would without doubt as 4 weeks is a while , go back to the surgery & see another GP , hopefully they will be more understanding , lots of us have had this problem & had to do the same , just explain , even though you are on the list , you need help in the meantime & if you feel meds will help , tell them

Keep talking on here & let us no how you go on

Love
