Hey thanks for your reply... are you seeking any help of any sort? X
I am seeing my gp he thinks my anxiety and depression comes from a type of ocd
the fact I over thinking everything and get intrusive thoughts which cause the anxiety then onto full blown panic!
I have to plan everything too i hate change.
im currently on mirtazipine 45mg for the anxiety (non effective now) after 7 years I now have fluoxetine 20mg which I have started today! No change ATM but not bad either I have referred myself for counseiling and cbt.
no real diagnosis as yet just my Gp saying that my symptoms are a mixed bag
I have diazepam 5mg for when it gets too bad but I know its all in my head and it will pass but its easier said then done
hope you are doing ok?
