Yes you need to go to the doctors to get a proper diagnosis and some help. Meds and/or counselling should be able to help you. I know it's scary but no one can do it for you. Is there someone who can go with you or try writing everything down and handing it to the doctor. They will not judge you as there is nothing they haven't heard before.

If you don't want to do that then there is only the self help route. You can get online counselling but you will have to pay, and look at mindfulness, meditation, and yoga etc.

Hello Sandra, although its good to share your problems on a forum such as this all we can offer is sympathy and more usefully helpful advice sometimes.

You have a source of help immediately, your GP. They won't solve this instantly but will make a start and more importantly you'll get a lift from knowing you've done something positive to start solving these problems.
