Anxiety

I’ve suffered with anxiety since late 2019 and went on to experience my first ever panic attack in February 2020. From there, it’s been a frustrating journey: where did this come from? What triggers it? Which anxiety symptoms are perfectly normal and which are something to be concerned about? These are all questions I’ve had since day one, so I know there are others out there who are in the same boat.

I wasn’t sure how open I wanted to be about my experience. I have no shame in talking about, as should no one, but it can leave you feeling quite vulnerable opening up about something that affects your day-to-day life. So, I wanted to share my health anxiety story, experiences with panic attacks, techniques that help me cope and more, with the hope someone finds this information useful.

Would you like to share your own health anxiety story and content? I offer guest blogging opportunities at KayCaton.co.uk, so if you’d like to submit your own guest post around your experience or any anxiety-related content, feel free to get in touch.
