Looking to make friends with the same illness as me. I do have
friends and family but they don¡¦t really understand what I¡¦m going
through because they don¡¦t have the same illness as me.
My husband works full time and my sons at school everyday.
So most of the time it¡¦s just me on my own who sits in day and night.
I feel too anxious to go out on my own.
I find it so hard just to walk the dog around the block, my husband
always offers to take me out but the places he chooses to go are the
places I find the most hardest like cinemas or restaurants.
I always come over hot and panicky on buses and trains and people
look at me because I start to shake and cry. It would just be nice to
go out with someone who knows exactly how I feel and what to do.
When I¡¦ve been out with other friends and I¡¦ve come over anxious they
just say pull yourself together or we¡¦ve come all the way now, were
not going back.
So therefore I don¡¦t want to go out with someone that makes me feel
worse.
It¡¦s hard to find someone to come to the doctors with me because I
get too panicky to go on my own.
It feels like it¡¦s never going to end. These panic attacks and
anxiety and depression. I just wish I had some more support. I hate
facing each day. When I come over anxious at night is bad cos every
one is in bed ¡V no one I can phone for a chat! ƒ¼
It's very hard to deal with anxiety alone when others don't seem to
understand what I¡¦m feeling!
