Do you have a therapist? Sometimes, if I can't reach my therapist, I call my local hotline and talk to someone over the phone. This really helps me because I know another person is listening.

butterflies is right. having a therapist is the best choice for someone to talk to, especially if you are having panic attacks and depression. they can evaluate whether a need for a referral to a psychiatrist is necessary. if the panic attacks and depression are bad enough meds may be needed.

you can talk to a trusted friend if you have someone willing to listen, but still that is a large burden for a friend to carry.

you can post here on PC. lots of people have been thru what you have and will be here to understand and support you.

i went to my doctor today im on antidepressents and also tablets to help with the panic attacks i told her bits of what happened me as a child and she has referrred me to see a psychiatrist and also for counselling. im really frightened because i have to face what happened to me now and ive told myself forced myself for so many years to believe dat wat happenened never did because i wanted so bad for it not to be real i didnt want to believe that it happened i hoped that if i told myself over and over again somehow i would make it go away and now the pain of having to talk about it is unbearable it feels like im goin to have to re live it all over again and im not sure im strong enough. i just feel physically emotionally and mentally drained

Keeping it inside will not be any better. Letting it out will be hard but then it will get better evenually if you keep working toward healing.
