We understand that it may be difficult to speak to your doctor if you suffer from anxiety. It is hard for most people to talk to anybody about a "problem," and anxiety problems are very personal and private. It is important to remember that your doctor�s job is to help you take care of your health. Part of that job is to talk to you about personal and private problems. Your doctor talks to people about anxiety problems all of the time. According to research, up to 60% of visits to family doctors (GPs) are for "non-medical" reasons (like depression, anxiety, and other mental health concerns). Your doctor wants to help you and knows how to help you. If you aren�t quite sure how to talk to your doctor, you�ll find some tips and advice in this section. You can also find information on how doctors diagnose panic disorder, and what to expect after diagnosis to help you feel more comfortable about asking for help.
