Maybe you are just mentally exhasted. It takes time. I know that I am so damn mentally exhasted and I have to force myself to do stuff i loved to do before this nightmare started.

Do not Google and self diagnose, you said yourself you used to do It a lot, so you can stop, it is the worst thing for your panic attack to then think omg I have got something wrong, then panic, vicious cycle to get into, for your own sanity please be kind to yourself, you are so young and have your whole life to enjoy, can you talk to your parents about this.

Hey James! Anxiety does make me feel physically exhausted. That could very well be it for you too. It could also be lack of sleep, since I read you are 16 and presumably going to a public high school, and sleep is so hard to come by when you have to get up so early!

I would consider talking to a therapist. There is no shame in help. High school years are tough at times, and anxiety does not help. I would advise talking to a therapist because it can lift a HUGE weight off of your shoulders.

I read you worry about health. I do that too. I force myself to stop looking online, because I know that if I keep looking I will convince myself that I have every disease on the planet. My Dad spoke to a doctor and he said that the internet has been awful for the medical world because there are so many people misdiagnosing themselves nowadays.

I thought I had PCOS (but for super good reason, like I had very obvious symptoms) and it ended up being nothing. In that case, something that very very much seemed like something ended up being nothing.

My biggest suggestion is start talking to someone whether it be parents or a therapist. No reason to do it all alone.
