I have been a sufferer for 12-years and am doing well. My blog is dedicated to help. I will be updating my blog every 5-7 days on new ways to cope anxiety. I have just made few good entries on coping - I hope it will help you.

I started out taking prozac 20mg daily.. then it dropped to 10mg and now I am just taking 5mg and still doing very well. I might be considering taking medication off my life.

If anything, getting better will strengthen your relationship! Talk to your girlfriend about your fears. If your relationship is as strong as you are saying it is, I'm sure she will be supportive.
