So after nearly 3 weeks on the Ads i had an app to go to today my friend took me and it seemed like a million miles away tho it wasnt! Managed to stay calm there back and during the app and then when i got back my anxiety was through the roof?? Even tho i was back home has anyone else experienced this? Or have any kind of explanation please.
Hi, yes!! I had a appointment on weds i went along with my partner and baby and since weds iv been confindednin my house even to my bed iv felt awful since then 
i suffer with aniexty real bad an agrophobia! Not fun hope u manage to calm down abit - deep breaths x
Bless you its tough isnt it 😓 its a new one to me to get anxious when i got home! Weird...am ok now but the first half hour i got back i was all over the place xx
This also happens to me, i prepare myself for dr appt by using half a diaz then when ive done the appt i feel worse when i get home again, anxiety rockets. Whats going on?
Ps what a.ds did they give you?
Im on Sertraline and iv got Propranolol to take as and when im glad im not the only one who experiences this and im with you as in whats going on im usually relieved to be back home.
I have just been giving propranolol today.. how are you taking it? Does it work iv took one an feel less shacky iv been givin 10mg xx
Iv got 10 mg too and i can take up to 4 a day it deffo works for me it wont stop the panic/anxiety but it calms down the physical stuff ie: adrenaline,shaking,palpatations i couldn't have got through these first weeks on Sertraline without it xx
Im now on venlafaxine 37.5mg from a change over off citelopram .. i was on citelopram since 2012 after having my 2nd child, they worked but have now unfortantly stopped workin for me so im mow trien these new ones but therev knocked me for six so hopein the propranolol will ease the side effect symptoms has i said i took one this morning and have felt calm all day mot great but calm about it! Xx
Well i had god awful side effects for the first 2 weeks didnt leave my bed didnt eat constantly anxious all day and night so couldn't sleep the Propranolol were a life saver certainly takes the edge off xx
Iv been in bed since saturday.. took one this morning an iv left my bed an joined my family down stairs in a better frame off mind, havent been able to eat much a banana in the morning an maybe a little food at night. Its so cripling as iv got three children two im primary school an a four month old baby i feel so guilty! My partner is amazing tho!! Xx
Well done for joining your family its really hard to even do the smallest things 😘 i still struggle with the simplest of things but im getting there my daughter is grown up now but iv suffered with both anxiety and depression since she was 3 the fact that your partner is being amazing is fantastic and you mustnt feel guilty its an illness thats completely out of our control ie not something we can help nor did we ask for hang in there sweet 💜
P.S. private message me if you need to xx
Oh bless ya.. how has your daighter found growing up with you being the way you are? I fear it will effect my children in the long run? I never want them to see me struggling i hide alot off the symptoms infront off them an mange a brave face until there in bed! I dont get out much if at all atm iv devoloped slight agrophobia tbh these past few weeks but i havent felt this relaxed as i do now in about a week so thats a plus i spose xxx
I dont know how too lol xx
When i reply to you on here can you see a little envelope between our names? Click on that ☺ my daughter just takes me for who i am shes grown up with it fortunately it wasnt too severe when she was younger ehich im grateful for cos iv been on my own with her since she was 6 month old it seems to have got worse in the last couple of years and shes 19 now so she accepts me for me never complains xx
Hi sammy, really feel for you all out there who have to live with the awful symptoms of anxiety while looking after children, I just can't imagine it, knowing how bad anxiety is and sometimes not being able to leave house or function, just a nervous shaking mess, just wanted to say good on you for pushing yourselves to join in and look after your kids while feeling so rotten. Hate this anxiety, I have generally more good days now but wouldn't wish it on anyone, stick in there, great support here😊❤️
Yes, it got so bad that I developed agoraphobia. The longer you stay in the harder it is to get out. It is part of the adrenalin fight or flight response. Basically, you are looking for a safe place to be. When I go someplace I have to stay distracted to not be aware of where I am. I think I developed this because I was always in a rush to get to places. I got to get out of the high anxiety mindset of I need to get to this appointment by 3:00. Instead, I say to myself I am going to this appointment in hopes I will get better. If I am a little bit late it is no big deal because I always end up waiting when I am on time. I have to find ways of enjoy going to places rather than thinking that I must go places.
Thank you thats excellent advice especially the places to enjoy rathet than must go ☺ but my problem today was the other way round i was alright going out it was when i got home that i had the panic attack.
Awe thank you so much thats so lovely to read! My children are number 1 and im number 2.. always!
They are my discration even if i need to sneek off to the loo to have a quiet word with myself, my partner is a life safe when 6pm reach tho lol! Sometime tho he doesnt even know when im feeling bad unless i tell him, he says i hide it will! I dont get out much atm but im working on it atm i cant take my children to school witch is a great heartbreak for me but there good.. we do extra stuff at home an lots off happy times under the roof for now! 
hope your well xxx
