Hi Hun, yes yes yes I'm sure you'll get a lot of replies, my first symptoms were dizziness cold clammy near fainting palpatations, excessive yawning, confusion.....which I didn't realise at the time was the anxiety slowly building up then bang it got me in the middle of town, I knew then I was having an anxiety attack and the got worse and more frequent, I'm now in antidepressants and after 10 days I can feel it starting to calm thank God, good luck with your project xx

Please forgive me for being a little discourteous, but I am confused as to why you don't just read any one of the 100's of threads on this site, which refer to anxiety or depression?

and I've read through a bunch...but wanted to reach out to get more personal feedback and see if any responses would be different and hopefully more descriptive. It never hurts to reach out and look for more information.
