Hello I'm not sure how much detail i can go into here to start with but basically 6 years ago I was diagnosed with general anxiety disorder and panic attacks, they got really bad and I started to worry it was the beginning of something like schizophrenia as Id heard that could be triggered by drugs (I used to smoke lots of marijuana but stopped as soon as this started)

Anyhow it went away on it's own and apart from a couple of pangs I never really had anything since, until last November when for no apparent reason I started experiencing them again for around two weeks. That time it seemed more mental ie dissociation and derealisation, I couldnt sleep and I even heard a voice calling an ex girlfriends name which scared me to death that I was indeed going mad!!! Again it subsided and all returned to normal, until last month. I have been very lucky and happy this year with life progressing wonderfully, and have the love and support of great friends and a beautiful woman, but I have recently been feeling quite anxious, had a couple of panic attacks, and lots of aches/pains, headaches, dizzy spells, nightmares, waking up lots feeling anxious. I tend to feel most anxious in the mornings and during the night. also Im aware that ive been experiencing mood swings and negative thinking, and again due to lack of sleep i once heard someone call my name?! This was actually the start of my anxiety this time, and again i find myself worrying, am I developing schizophrenia?!?! Or is it just bad anxiety? Or perhaps some kind of mild depression/chemical thing? I'm a 28 year old male, no family history of anything like this, father has suffered depression, Im quite outgoing, well liked and sociable. I cant afford to see a psychiatrist but cant afford mentally to go on like this, and I really want to address these issues so I can live life to the full again. Many thanks in advance :)
