    Hi there. I'm new to this forum but just had to respond to you. I know exactly what you're going through. I too feel so anxious when showering. I feel as if my legs are going up give way. I can't wait to get out and steady myself. The only consolation is that when I'm done I think yo myself well I did it and nothing happened so it's a bit of an achievement. I've recently started propranolol which help a bit. Anxiety/panic for me started about a month ago and I'm knocked for six. Trying to stay positive and strong and waiting for nhs referral.

    Ok on this you have to draw the line. Draw it and demand more of yourself. Ik that might sound hard but its easy. Go in the shower and note to self anxiety you do mot get to effect my showers. You are in control of this big time. Take back the control.
