Anxiety and depression and self esteem

I’ve never been diagnosed with these issues but I am very stubborn to do so but I feel like I need help. I don’t want to go to the doctors and get put on meds because of stories I’ve heard. So I would like to write and see if this helps.

I’m 25 and I feel lost in my world i feel alone most of the time even though I’ve got a daughter and a partner of 4/5 years even other family around me but I just feel everything that goes on in my life isn’t working out and I’m very very self conscious of my appearance and i shy away from things that could better my life because of that and if I try to just push through that and do them I get to the last step and crumble heart pounding and getting clammy and worrying about every scenario. I feel left behind by all my friends and family aswell because I haven’t bettered my living situations because of my anxiety and self consciousness and I just feel like I can’t be the person I want to actually be and strive forward and be the partner dad and even son that I should be and all of this just makes me even worse and puts me in to a depressed state of mind and it also has affected my relationship
