Hi everyone

Hi All,
I am a thirty five year old female, living in Scotland. I have been suffering from anxiety / panic, on and off for as long as I can remember, I had been doing fine until 3 weeks ago, when totally out of the blue, I had a monster of a panic attack whilst at work and I had to come home. I have not really shared my story with anyone up until now. I was prescribed Citalopram from my Doctor a week and a half ago. I managed six days, then stopped due to the side effects -  they made my anxiety worse and I felt I was better off going it along and trying some CBT, This is how I stumbled across this website, Anyway, I look forward to hearing more people's stories and experiences and pray I can get through this blip, meds free ! 
Wishing you all the very best and sending lots of love to everyone who is suffering out there.

My main anxious thought.... looking for some help, please, on how to challenge this one !

Hi All,
When I am feeling anxious / in panic mode, I have a really strong fear of dying. Can anyone please tell me how is best to challenge this thought ?
Many Thanks x
