    does anyone else have trouble with docs etc
    if you get good one your very lucky,i think once you get a label they more or less give up.i think more research needs to be done as more and more young people seem to be getting phobias.

    luckily my doc was great. gave me every support and went out of his way to get the fastest appointment possible with a therapist. he treated me with total kindness and not once made me feel like i was wasting his time. have you had trouble beverley? you can ask to be refered by the practise manager if you're not happy.

    It is true about anyone who suffers with anxiety problems, everytime your ill it is down to anxiety. I have a cold (its only anxiety) I have a headache (its only anxiety) i think ive broken my arm doctor (its only anxiety) lol . My doctor is great honestly !

    I've not seen a doctor for over 4 years now

    They don't seem to want to know, Just dish out the pills,

    Saying that though not all doc's are the same, I've had some great doc's over the years,

    I'll agree with dp etc that they seem to blame everything on anxiety, i'm sure if i phoned the doc and told him i'm pregnent he'd say don't worry it's just your anxiety (wouldn't mind but i'm male :lol: )

    is she understanding to talk to or does she just agree with everything her husband says?
