Research everything you can about anxiety the more you learn the better you inderstand that its perfectly normal and cannot harm you thus allowing you to accept it and then you can move on or move forward from it patience is key in this

I've been like this for 5 years. I'm scared of the anxiety and the thoughts so I'm not getting better

I agree with kevoreally, information is key to understanding what is happening. Look at all the different ideas for coping with the issue and you may find that somethings work better than others for you. Not everything will work for you and most of the time you can’t eliminate the anxiety but you can find ways to help lessen it and make it your life bearable.

But the thoughts are obsessive

Yes I go to a psychiatrist and a therapist.
