I worked at my hometown nursing home for 2 years, loved my job, and i quit in march for a new job. Thats when my panic attcks started, i stuck it out til june, but by then , i wasnt able to leave the house anymore. I have been outa work since, the nursing home keeps beggn me to come back and i want to so bad, but i am so scared and dont know why, it is like home there. I started on celexa 3 weeks ago, they make my anxiety milder. I just hope it takes away my panic attacks so i can go back to work at the nursing home, i miss that place so much, but am so scared my anxiety wil take control over me and i wont be able to work . Help! any advice will be greatly appreciated, dont tell me to suck it up though cuz i tried and i physically cannot!
Unfortunatly, medication cannot work by itself. You should also probably be speaking to a therapist.
My anxiety has made it so I have not gone to work for several days, but I cannot say that I have quit because of it.
Unfortunatly, it appears as though the Anxiety has taken over your life. You need to try to get control back. It could be possible that if you went back, since it was a great place, your attacks will deminish.
If you wake up in the morning, and say you will be ok…. your day will be better. If you wake up, and say.. ok… when is the next attack going to happen, it will happen.
Good luck!
