[gordie1]

Hi there I am feeling really paranoid I was having a panic attack today as I am on this new tablet glipazide and I ran out of my house into this woman and she was trying to get throught the door with her baby and she was dittering about and I said to her come on and she got really angry at me and I told her my blood sugars were too high and she then said to her boyfriend he told me to come on and then I said im sorry Im not feeling well my blood sugars are too high but then ran away now I am worried they are going to come to my door maybe I am just being paranoid because Im not feeling well

Take a deep breath, calm down and look it from the mothers perspective. She has just got back to her building is at the front door sorting out her shopping and baby before entering the block. Just as she is about to walk through the door she has someone steamrollering out of the building giving her a garbled excuse for the behaviour. I would be alarmed in the first instance and if I was with someone I too would make a comment. It is a normal response to an unusual event.

Judging by what you post on here your anxiety and paranoia are getting out of hand, you need help. Do you have any friends or family that you can speak to who will help calm you down when you get yourself into a state?

Ah yes sorry to you gordie, (well spotted Headwreck) because you said house ... I assumed it being yours, not a home. (shared community type thing)

Selective reading, not taking advice. Doesnt this remind you of someone?

Me?? I have phoned nhs 24 and they told me I am being completely irrational and I spoke to a cpn who has advised me to take 5mg of diazepam and go to bed

gordie1 - What type of counsellor are you seeing -are you having any therapy or are you seeing a person centred counsellor? Please tell your counsellor at your next session about your panic attacks and hopefully you can get some coping strategies -CBT should be offered to you but hey this is the real world and you will be stuck on a waitng list. please try the following link and read the self help literature -it may help you 'normalise' how you are feeling. x
