Thanks folks
I just wondered do you guys have similar experiences to me re NHS GPs?
I know the sort of stuff we talk about needs handled with extreme care, however, I also know how my body and mind works.
To go to a dr in genuine need of help, which help exists, and get frowned upon is the worst kind of medical support for such conditions.
I had my first panic attacks when I was late teens. By 22 I would have paid tens of thousands of pounds to get rid of these damn things.
GPs have never offered me anything so for 20 years I have used alcohol to defeat the anxiety. Thing is of course I know is counter productive however when you have nothing else, what can you do?
Without the alcohol I might be dead by now - now with the alcohol it feels as if its killing me.
So here I am, looking for help with medicine I should have been given 20 years ago.
