hi my name is sarah and i am 25, i have been suffering on and off with anxiety and panic attacks for a while recentky in the last couple of weeks it seems to of spiraled out of control, i was wondering if anyone could relate to any of these symptoms as i am feeling very alone and nobody to turn to.

in the day i seem to be in my own little bubble, at night it gets worse i suffer from muscke cramps in calve mucles in leg and arms too, when i nod off to sleep i fell like i get a shoke through my body and then a chill and become cold and then cannot sleep for ages as this goes on as soon as i nod off again. sometimes i feel a cold sensation in my head and feel like i can feel fuild moving, i get the shakes on the inside but nothing on the outside sometimes i dont sleep till the morning cause i cannot, feel sleepy all day, lightheadness, headaches and just feel like i am going mad.

also the doctor has discribed me citalpram has anyone else took these and felt better, have not took any yet to scared incase i am worse.

thank <YOU> for the time would appreciate some help. xxxx

well according to my doctor i have been suffering from stress and anxiety since 2004,from then till now i have had loads of tests and symptoms,and i have taken citalpram and others and none have helped me 1 bit,thats why i question my doctor is it stress and anxiety or something with similar symptoms they are confusing me with?,i dont want to sound moody or no hoper,but i truly think tablets for stress and anxiety have no cure on anyone its a psychological(sp)thing,like if you put the tablet in your mouth and think its going to make you better more then likely you will feel like it as made you a bit better,i think you should go back and back to your doctors to get a proper answer,why should 1 suffer in silence like this,i know how you feel,its always like your thinking when are you ever going to get better,
1 other thing i would look at would be when you first started having these symptoms did anything happen in your life,i,ejob change,house move,lost a love one,so on,well i hope you the best of luck and hope you get better.
