I'm on tablets only on the 15th day I think it is hoping they will start to stop me worrying as much soon, it's the worst thing constantly worrying I'm really ill :(

Know exactly how u feel, I work in a nursery therefor catch something different every other week, wether it be a bug, a virus and even had the dreaded norovirus which set my panic attacks of again as I was so I'll for so long with it that I then convinced myself it was something more serious. I also have its which is made worse with anxiety and it's a huge vicious circle. I didn't realise just how many physical symptoms anxiety can cause, I am now struggling with pains in my chest and heart flutters :( xx
