Hi everybody.
I haven't used this forum before but I'm hoping it could help me a little.
I've suffered from anxiety and panic for a while now, but in the past few months it has escalated and for no apparent reason.
My partner is an amazing support, but I'm still finding my fight with the anxiety very hard.
Part of my job is to sign documents as a witness. I am finding I can't even do that anymore without experiencing a panic attack. My symptoms are becoming more severe - shakes, hot flushes, vertigo and nausea, even dizzy spells, and slowly becoming constant. I have a referral to see a psychologist in the next few weeks but I'm scared that won't help and I'll be stuck like this forever. I've tried medication, I've tried changing the way I think. Nothing helps.
Does anyone have any advice?
Thank you.
