Hello,
I'm not exactly sure what to do here, So I guess i'll just start by saying my names Heather, I'm 16 years old and I suffer from severe panic attacks, I have OCD and alot of phobias. It took until I was around 7 for people other than my parents to realise I needed help, I got reffered to a Phsycoligist but it did'nt help. I stopped going to school, People thought I was lie-ing ect.. then I got reffered to a phsyciatrist and she was no use at all, Infact I remember she hit me once and called me a bitch. After many years and much suffering I got put in a small secondry school and I liked it for a while until more and more people came and I got picked on, It turned out to be a girls behavioural school. I stopped going. After a while I got a new phsyciatrist who was amasing he helped me loads I got a new physcoligist who was also magnificant and all this happened when I moved house two years ago, The end of last year I finally got a home tutor who was really wondefull and I caught up on some work unfortunaly since i'm 16 she left and just recently everythings went down hill. I take panic attacks through-out the whole day I worry about dying I worry about everything constantly my OCD has got alot worse and I went to the doctors today to see if I could get medication to calm me down and he said no. I have to see a more sympathetic doctor on Friday and I only hope shes more helpful, I feel so low and frightened, My internet has just been put back on today and I can't pick the courage to even talk to my friends.. the ones that ive got. So I decided to look for support groups. Maybe someone could help? I dont know how.. but just maybe. I'm also sorry for the long story and if I have wasted anybodys time, If you did read it then thank you from the bottom of my heart.
