I am 37 and had a total hysterectomy last year. Since then I have had anxiety, panic attacks and have become agraphobic!! I am on 30mg citalopram each day and start seeing my counsellor for CBT in 2 weeks. I do not feel too good at the moment - have difficulty breathing at times because of the tight chest. I would love to hear from other people in a similar position as any hints, tips and advice would be very welcome.

Many thanks to you all.

Welcome Janice.
Im also agoraphobic, been housebound 4 years. But the anxiety at home is more or less gone unless i have something to agitate it, like visitors etc. But other than that im ok at home. i am having therapy myself, but woth an occupational therapist. Its going ok, but m still not out and a bout. I was told i would be getting cbt, but i didnt. But it does have a very high success rate, so i wish you all the luck!
