Severe anxiety

[user07677]

I've suffered with anxiety for years and quite severely but the last 6 months it's completely beaten me to the ground I can no longer do anything and if I feel any sort of anxiety I won't leave the house, I suffer with extreme emetophobia and it's completely ruined my life I'm having panic attacks after panick attacks I feel like I'm at a real loss I'm on a waiting list to see a psychiatrist but I don't know how to cope anymore or who to talk to family is amazing but they can only do so much and my bf has been more than perfect and i know I've become a burden to him even though he's never say that it's just so hard because I feel like im loosing all control over my life and even when I try and fight the anxiety it just doesn't end well, any advice on what got people through?.

Have you seen your GP? Anti anxiety medication really helps to take the edge off.

Have a look at this video about the physical side of being anxious;

And this one about why you need anxiety in your life;

Hope these help in some way.

@TamanTun yeah unfortunately they can't give me any as I'm under 18, it's just completely ruining my life they've given me diazepam and propranolol but that doesn't really do much and obviously can only have a limited amount x

I know it sounds silly but do you have pets or access to a cute dog to cuddle? Dogs helped me get through this summer.
