[s0:5] Patient
Probably around 22 or 23? So eight-ish years. It's come and gone but it got a lot worse after I moved interstate on my own for work. I was drinking way too much back then and doing everything by myself, and I was sick a couple of times when I was out. Ever since then I've been scared of throwing up in front of people.
[s0:7] Patient
Trains and buses mostly, anywhere I can't just get off. Cinemas. Restaurants are really bad at the moment, I can't eat in front of people. Work too, I'm in the office three days a week and I'm constantly worried people can tell something's off or that I'm not keeping up. Some days even a text I need to reply to sets it off.
[s0:9] Patient
Not really out of nowhere. It's more the night before something social, I go into overthinking mode and I'm wound up before I've even left the house.
[s0:1] Patient
Hi. So I've been getting a lot of panic, mostly in social situations and on public transport, and it's got to the point where I'm avoiding things. I'd like to be referred to a clinical psychologist, ideally someone who can assess whether it's social anxiety or agoraphobia or what it actually is. I've been on sertraline for a couple of years and I've got propranolol for bad days, so maybe also a chat about whether the meds are still right. When it hits it's sweaty hands, my heart going really fast, feeling sick, and this need to just get out. Yeah.
[s0:11] Patient
Tingly, and my hands and feet go hot. When it's really bad my hearing goes muffled. And this feeling like I can't trust my own brain, like I might lose it. That's the worst part honestly.
[s0:13] Patient
The peak is maybe ten minutes but I'm on edge for hours after. Wiped for the rest of the day.
[s0:15] Patient
Last week was bad, most days. Normally once or twice a week, but I think that's only because I avoid so much.
[s0:17] Patient
Dinners with friends, I make excuses. I don't take the train anymore, I drive even though parking costs a fortune. I used to go to the gym before work and I've basically stopped. If I do go somewhere I want someone with me, which isn't really fair on them.
[s0:25] Patient
Hard to get to sleep the night before anything. I can lie there until 2 going over it. Other nights are fine.
[s0:21] Patient
Flatter than usual. Not sad all the time, just nothing's really giving me any joy. I wouldn't call it depression but I don't know.
[s0:23] Patient
No. When the panic is really bad I get scared of my own head, like I said, but it's not that I don't want to be here. It's not that.
[s0:19] Patient
I'm not sure. It's been a rough year, my grandma died in May and I went through a breakup not long after. And I've been trying to push myself to do more lately, so maybe I just overdid it.
[s0:55] Patient
Just that I really want the referral this time. I've put it off for years thinking I'd get on top of it myself, and I can't keep making excuses to my friends. Sorry if some of that was all over the place, it's hard to explain.
[s0:27] Patient
100mg. It went up from 50 at the end of last year.
[s0:29] Patient
Honestly I can't tell. I started it when I was still drinking, and things got better once I stopped, so it's hard to know what's doing what. The panic still comes either way.
[s0:31] Patient
Hardly at all until last week. I took one Monday before the office and still felt panicky but sort of further away from it, which helped. Tuesday I didn't and I was sweating, nauseous, couldn't sit still, so I took one after lunch and it took the edge off.
[s0:33] Patient
No, nothing else. Just the anxiety. No surgeries.
[s0:37] Patient
The pill, and magnesium at night.
[s0:39] Patient
No.
[s0:41] Patient
Dad has high cholesterol. Nothing else that I know of.
[s0:45] Patient
I vape. Pretty much all day if I'm honest, more when I'm anxious.
[s0:47] Patient
No. I stopped a bit over two years ago and haven't had a drink since.
[s0:49] Patient
No.
[s0:35] Patient
A few sessions with a counsellor at uni. Never a psychologist or psychiatrist, and no admissions. My GP started the sertraline.
[s0:43] Patient
Mum's always been an anxious person, I reckon she'd have been diagnosed if she'd ever seen anyone. My brother had depression in his twenties.
[s0:53] Patient
Graphic designer at an agency. Three days in the office, two at home, and the home days are so much easier.
[s0:51] Patient
I live with a housemate. My family's all interstate. I've got two good friends here, they're the ones who come places with me.
