Hello guys i am so sorry havent been here for a long time about a yr maybe?
i have been coping well with my anxiety/depression with no meds for nearly 3 years now.... i still get the odd brain buzz now and then obviousley not as much as i used too !! (when i was on meds)
i started college a few mnths ago, settled down with my boyfreind :-)
but today frightened me, i dont know weather it is because i am very stressed at the moment i am having some problems finacialy, my car wont start, arguing with andy (my partner), my daughter still wont behave, its taking me along time to lose this weight (54 pounds to go) and college has been a little boring and stressfull with wanting to finish my course early so i can move!!
ANYWAY i was walking bk from college today and i could hear ppl laffing, i looked around but didnt see anyone there, then i went to meet my mum in tescos then i went into tescos, and i felt all panicky and "wired" was as if people where only in there to get me? i lost my mum and started to freak and feel all weird, and as if i was going to lose my mind. i havent felt this way for 2 years .. scared the hell out of me, and ofcourse its started me of again now and im terrified..
for those who dont remember me i been diagnosed with just anxiety/panick attacks and depression!!
i dont want to mention this to my gp because he will flog me of with meds again but im scared of them i took most of them before and couldnt handle them, i will how ever mention it to my physcologist who i pay to see (private) but i can not afford to see her for a while!! andy has told me to snap out of it!! but i cant and i cant talk to no one else about these feelings.. i am so paranoid ppl r out to get me, and the dark days are back in my head nothing seems real, i am not here again.. plse tell me its just stress :(
thankyou all for listening
(p.s hi dr bob, hope its ok to post here all my freind come to this board xx)
luv yall
Donna xxxxxxxxxxxx

Hi, Donna, good to see you're doing so well, overall, but sorry to see that you're still having some problems.
As for what happened, that's part of the vicious circle of anxiety -- you can get so afraid of it hitting you, that your fear of anxiety produces an anxiety attack! So unfair, huh?
I think that, if you look at what happened that one day as just that: something which happened on ONE DAY, out of more than a year, and concentrate on what's happened on the other 364 days this year, you may be able to head off more anxiety for another year. I hope that makes sense, and I hope it helps you.
Congratulations on your progress.

Donna did you have your baby? Weren't you pregnant before when you were here? I could be mistaken it's been so long. You're not hearing voices or seeing things others don't see are you? Otherwise it sounds like the stress has caught up with you and a good ole anxiety attack is what's happeing to you. How did you get rid of them before? Love Phillipa

Hi, i did have a miscarriage last year, think its gods way of telling me i wasnt ready anyway.. :S
woke up this morning, everything is all dark and dim again, i am trying so hard, just feel so paranoid, weak, and depressed, i have to go to town today to get mothers day card for my mum i could really do without it but i have too..
i just did it all on my own with sum support of andy my partner and my physcologist who i only seen now and again cus i cant afford to see her as often as i used too..
i know ive been here before, and i know i can get out of it, but when and how i am not so sure.. i h8 this feeling, i feel so paranoid ppl out to get me.. why is this? i must be so stressed without me really realizing, i sat down lastnight and wrote down what was wrong, how to fix it, i thought i fixed it hmmm .. only time can tell..

Donna xx

Donna sorry about the miscarriage but seriously I remember valium made you more anxious. How did you ever get back to normal? Did you take some herbs or something else. I undertand your not wanting to go back to the docs because of what happened before. Do you want my E-mail I will babble mail it to you. We used to chat before. Do you remember me? Love Phillipa/ Jan
