Good luck. Let us know how your intial GP visit goes. I didn't go via my GP for various reasons, I went straight to a private psychologist. It has definitely improved me, rather than cured. I was virtually house bound when I started, now I work and can go out. I still feel the anxiety but its easier and also manage my panics. It's definitly been worth it for me. Its helped me kind of tidy my brain a little and explore and understand why I am like this.
