So I've been on sick leave for three years now because of generalized anxiety and stress, as well as a borderline diagnosis. Where I'm from a board has to judge your case when you're unemployed for a period of time on sick leave, to determine how and what to do for future work, disability or whatever.

Anyway, I got offered a three year work ability enhancement program of sorts, with a focus on developing my working ability and psychological issues to a point where I can function in an ordinary work environment. I'm starting tomorrow 2 days a week, 4 hours total, and I've been having panick attacks non-stop for a month since the agreement was made.

The place seems nice and all, with understanding staff and such. I just can't shake this feeling of imminent dread, my heart is pumping like crazy, and I can barely breathe sometimes. It goes like that for hours at a time sometimes, on the worst days like today I barely get a break between.

I have no idea what to do about this, I've started sessions with a psychotherapist a few months ago, but I don't feel a major change.

I've had social anxiety as long as I can remember, it's just gotten so bad as of late.
