He had a heart attack when he was only 53 years old and the heart surgery went wrong. His brain was damaged. i accompanied a beautiful, strong and intelligent man to hospital and took home someone who looked and behaved like a child. He had become incapable of looking after himself. i changing my clothes and washing adequately and couldnt relate socially to anyone but my husband. If you look well... We have an expression here that says that if you look well, you are treated well, which also means that if you do not look well you are not treated well. during Juan carlos illness our friends gradually disappeared. that taught me to keep my problems and thoughts to myself in front of our few remaining friends. a person who suffers from depression and anxiety is a person who lies. But it got worse and worse. i isolated myself from the world to avoid panic attacks. i was no use to anyone anyway. anxiety breaks you down. in the end i went to a psychiatric unit. the psychiatrist asked me if i wanted to die. i said no. it was then that i realised that i should take my own condition seriously. i started to take medication and attended regular consultations with a psychiatrist. years of illness. even though he had been very ill, i missed him terribly. We had been married for 37 years. My depression and anxiety came back with great force. i stayed at home with the radio on so as not to feel that i was alone. i did not want to be a burden to my sons who had also suffered throughout their fathers illness.

Juan carlos had established his own business and had no medical insurance, so we had access to very little help and no income. We had to sell our apartment and our car. i was constantly worried. Juan carlos wasnt getting any better and i would hardly ever leave the house as he would wander off and get lost if i didnt keep an eye on him. i would run to the supermarket and back. soon i became depressed and started suffering from anxiety. only i didnt know what to call it at the time. all i knew was that i cried all the time and the few times i left the house i had panic attacks in the street. i also stopped every day it gets a little better Fortunately, although i am not completely well, my health is better now. i am a catholic and believe god has helped me recover. But i am also eternally grateful to my psychiatrist. i am taking the medication that he has prescribed and i have taken his advice and started some new activities. i now play golf, do yoga and go for walks. i have one very good friend with whom i go on short trips. i have Juan carlos pension so i am financially comfortable. and i have even started dreaming of getting a house by the sea. sorrow brings it back i had been receiving treatment for my depression and anxiety for two years when Juan carlos died suddenly, aged 62, after nine Destination neXt DeCaDe LUNDBECK MAGAZINE 2008 Contents LUNDBECK MAGAZINE 2008 120 million persons page 22 strategy in place for new drugs page 1 Lundbeck Magazine 2008 3 My brAin, My self page 6 Anxiety is nAturAl, PAnic is not page 14 untreAt 4 Lundbeck Magasinet 2008 creating the future now Lundbeck Magazine 2008 5 t Lundbeck, the futures demand for new drugs is the pivot of our activiti 6 Lundbeck Magasinet 2008 Lundbeck Magazine 2008 7 My brain, my self n last years danish thriller Love on Film there is a ve 8 Lundbeck Magasinet2008 Magazine 2008 despite all that has happened during recent years, the prej Lundbeck Magazine 2008 9 Modern research shows that mental disorders arise in exactly the same way 10 Lundbeck Magasinet 2008 meTro sTATIon / Kongens nyTorv / copenhAgen / DenmArK / gps: 55° 40 45.4 Lundbeck Magazine 2008 11 strategy in place for new drugs Jan egebjerg, Divisional Director of mol 12 Lundbeck Magasinet2008 Magazine 2008 produced with the aid of chemical synthesis. as of yet, lu Lundbeck Magazine 2008 13 We believe that in the future it will be possible to make far more preci 14 Lundbeck Magasinet2008 Magazine 2008 Anxiety is natural, panic is not Working as an anxiety the Lundbeck Magazine 2008 15 anxiety and panic affect not only the quality of the patients life to a 16 Lundbeck JuAn B.
