Anxiety won't let me go

[Kengy]

Hi there

I suffered a massive anxiety attack in September, to the point where I was hospitalised for a week. Since that time, my anxiety has been up and down, but mostly up. However, this last week, my anxiety has been dreadful. I had Monday and Tuesday off work, went yesterday, had a good day, then spent last night have strange dreams and hot flashes. I feel awful, and I'm at work. I don't know if I'll last today. I feel like I'm going crazy.

Thank you for your kind words Paul. 

My anxiety attack did frighten me, but I had similar issues in 2004 and again in 2011. The funny thing is, the memory of those attacks fades, and I can't quite remember how I got through them!

Im feeling better this weekend, trying to keep busy, but get enough rest at the same time. I'm a bit disappointed in myself that I had to have two days off work this week, so I really want to do better next week. My job is both a blessing and a curse! 

I hope your anxiety is treating you well, and you're having a good start to the new year 🙂
