Mummy's with anxiety. Help please

[Yassy19]

Evening ladies. I have just joined this website.

I have an 8 month old son and suffer with anxiety.
I suffered with this before my son was born however it has gotten worse. I have panic attacks when people walk closely behind me. I hate going out alone. I have to check the front door is locked about 10 times and check various other things before I can relax.

It really does control my life.

I don't know anybody else who suffers with this within my friends or family so would really like to speak to other people who suffer with this and how they get over it

Thanks xxxx

Hi there,

I suffer from anxiety and depression. I'm probably not much help as I haven't figured out how to get over it yet but I think going to a doctor is a good idea - have you gone? I'm on meds for both.
