Postnatal Anxiety

Hi all!
I'm not even sure I can be classed as postnatal anymore with a 14 month old DD. To start from the beginning, I started to have horrific panic attacks around 30 weeks pregnant, which resulted in me blacking out most days. After an emergency C Section and a severe infection after birth, I seem to have panick attacks every other day. I was fortunate enough, that this didn't affect my bond with my beautiful girl, but the anxiety is totally ruling my life. I've been in therapy for almost a year, and I don't seem to be improving! Has anyone experienced similar, and what did you do to help. I just absolutely hate being this way, I was always so outgoing and bubbly, now I'm practically scared of anything social, or being outdoors for long periods of time. I don't know what to do anymore!

Can you remember that first panic attack and the circumstances around it?
