Hello!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hello, I am looking forward to being able to talk about my panic attacks and getting any tips etc from you all.
I am a 34 year old with 2 children and have been having bad panic attacks for about 1 month. I have always been a panicker and always worry. I lost my dad to cancer 2 years ago and my mum has been ill recently and is now in hospital and I think that was the last straw.
Would love to hear all your tips etc.

Hi Manda

It is good that you are seeking help so soon. A lot of people (myself included) have panic attacks for years before looking for help and by then it has become so ingrained in our habits that it is very difficult to tackle.

Welcome to the forum. I hope you can find people and information here to help you. If there's anything specific that I can help you with, don't hesitate to ask.

Best wishes

Chris

Hi Manda I've been suffering with what feels like anxiety since last September, When i went to the doctors he said it was mild depression? he gave me medication, which made me feel dizzy and disorientated, so i stopped taking it. Over the past few months it as come and gone. I usually find chatting to someone or keeping busy lifts my mood. Its usually first thing in the morn that i feel bad. It eases through the day. Hopefully your 2 children keep you going.
