Hi everyone. My name is Egle, I'm 23. Reason I'm writing in here is that my doctor referred this website in the hope to help me to deal with anxiety and panic attacks. I'm already on prescribed medicine and looking forward to get help and advice from anyone in here. Quite scared, since I've never ever done this kind of thing before. Miserable and hopeless too... :/

    Hello Egle and welcome to the boards. :)

    The Mix has a huge collection of helpful write ups on problems such as anxiety and panic attacks and here are a bunch to choose from.  http://www.themix.org.uk/search/Anxiety  I get anxiety only occasionally now, helping myself to cope by using breathing techniques and the advice of others. I'll find them later.

    People here have been great to me and they'll be lovely to you, helpful and supportive. It would help you to reach out for help in our Health & Wellbeing forum where your message will be more easily read there.

    Best wishes,

    Mandy

    Maybe somethings don't get better, but we do. We get stronger. We learn to live with our situations as messy and ugly as they are. We fix what we can and we adapt to what we can't. Maybe some of us will never fully be okay, but at least we're here. We're still trying. We're doing the best we can. That's worth celebrating too ❤

    Heyy @Past User I found my notes about how to deal with attacks of anxiety and panic. And some useful stuff that my ex left me with.

    Hey
    hope you find some support here
    “And when they look at you, they won't see everything you've been through. They won't see the **** that turned to scars that began to fade with time. They won't see the heartbreaking things that shook up and changed your entire world. They won't know how many tears you cried or even what it was you were crying about. They won't see how strong you had to be because you had no other choice. What they will see though is how compassionate you are because you experienced pain. What they will see is how kind you are because you experienced how cruel the world is. What they will see is how good you are because you've seen how bad things or people can be. The difference between you and your experiences are who you choose to be, despite everything that could have turned you cold and unkind.You are the good the world needs and the best of us.” ~ Kirsten Corley
