Hello & Welcome

And well done posting , I no how it feels to do your first post , I have been a member a while & after I did mine , I was sat there waiting thinking no one will reply & even if they do what will they say & that alone I found stressful , but I had no need to worry & neither have you as everyone on here knows just how you feel & you will get so much support from people , i hope that makes you feel better

From your picture , you dont look very old , & it really makes me sad to see young people suffering with this , yet it seems to not have any age restrictions who this illness affects

I expect you have been to see your GP , if you havnt , then I would & if you have & you are still feeling desperate & that you are not getting any better , I would go back & tell them , maybe some counselling might help , again you may have had some , but lots have had more than one attempt & it has worked

The more we get to no you , we will no better what to suggest

Keep talking on here & I hope it gives you some comfort to no you are not alone any more

Love

omg this actually nearly made me cry it's such a relief to here back from someone who also suffers you're right though i was a little worked up waiting for some sort of relpy or whatever, and no i'm 18 i was 16 when i finally got up the nerve to seek help from a GP and then and there i was diagnosed, i've recently been to the GP and they've given me betablockers and i'm just hoping they're going to have some sort of afect when they finally kick in :/ and i've haf councelling in the past but i had the magnificent counciler and she really did make me feel better and she made me feel like nothing was to worry about and things were going to be okay and it's going to be hard to find that again so i've been sorta putting off finding another. and thankyouu so much for your greeting you've made me feel accepted.

It can take a while as you no for the meds to work , & as the counselling helped you , i would ask again , people have had counselling several times , & you could also mention to your GP , how nice the last one was , she may still be there

Hello there,

I am glad you have found the site, and well done for posting how you feel. The first time I came on I just read other peoples posts, as I did not feel brave enough to post and was frightened people would think of my post. I was so busy worrying that it put me off. But I was so pleased when I did post as it helped me a lot, and I got lots of support from others on here.

You are never alone on here and everyone helps in there own way.

I have counselling and I am getting on great with it. I did wonder at first weather we would get on okay, but it was fine and I am glad I went.

Keep posting on here, hope you have a calm night. Gardener x

Hi you are doing the right thing and doing it well. Fortunately you have been diagnosed very early and will make great progress, just make sure NO ONE puts you down and makes you do want you don't want, it is just one day at a time, feel very proud of yourself , you have realised there is a problem and you are making bold steps to correct things. Try to stay away from the drink and other additives it will only make things worst . Start thinking how you would like your life to be ..... when you next feel depressed or having an anxiety attack ...dream a bit..start making a life plan bit by bit. YOU CAN DO IT !! you have done so well to get this far well done! you will get through this. People are here to help you , look in the mirror and start telling yourself you CAN, go and have a little dream how you would like your life to be. Be proud of yourself.
