Coronation Street star Helen Flanagan is reportedly considering leaving the show after a series of panic attacks.

The 21-year-old has battled with anxiety while filming scenes as Rosie Webster for the ITV soap and, according to the Sunday Mirror, is looking to tackle her issues away from work.

"It's no secret Helen has been *struggling *recently," an insider said. "She's been working hard and the stress has got to her. *Experiencing those panic *attacks has really shaken her up badly.

"She has said she doesn't want to renew her contract. Corrie may have to face up to The Street without Rosie *Webster."

Flanagan admitted to finding her panic attacks "very scary" and has since sought help from co-star Kym Marsh.

Rosie Webster was recently given her own online Coronation Street spinoff, which follows her attempts to launch a modelling career in London.

I hope she gets the right help, I don't want to loose Rosie...

I know how that feels and you just can't function. I so feel for her :(

I really don't believe this, she's just got back from a 3 month holiday, she can't be that stressed

Panic attacks aren't always due to stress. They can hit you out of the blue for absolutely no reason whatsoever and they do literally cripple you.

Also, now I've read that, I'm inclined to think she was ordered to have time off. Not for holidaying

The three month holiday could have possibly been because of this

I still don't think it's true, she's been there for however many years and this is the first we've heard about it

Why lie?

Oh and it can just have come on. It's not a disorder you are born with. It's very probable this has just happened to her actually

Whose lying?

90% of the time "an insider" is wrong

Why would she lie I meant

Given her recent 'holiday' where she clearly just vanished I'd think it's true

But she hasn't said anything :suspect: not directly to the paper anyway, it's gone via the "insider"

and she didn't vanish, I saw her on psychic sally :tongue:

I didn't look at the link :D


I thought she'd done a Tracy Barlow. Went up to her room then came back down years later looking completely different :joker:
