Episodes of extreme Anxiety and panic attacks
Jim is 18 years old and experiences episodes of extreme anxiety and panic attacks. He says this is his PTSD from a childhood car accident where both his parents were killed and he was severely injured, leaving him with hearing impairment. He has never been to counselling because he says “it is too hard to talk about”. He regularly engages in alcohol and cannabis misuse, which he says helps him calm down. However, he has recently been charged with disorderly conduct and public intoxication and spent a night in the watchhouse.
He misses many days after a hard night of drinking and smoking and he once arrived at work under the influence of cannabis. His boss has said he is at risk of losing his job.
