JUST Awful..

IM OK when I work 8 to 2 but after work when I walk home I start to feel panic and anxious.. sometimes I have to avoid bug groups of people i.e cross over a road just to not have to talk to anyone I feel very edgey when I walk around town and in supermarkets.. I cant give much eye contact and this is really embarrising as I feel people notice and so then Panic comes on ever worse. I always hope I never have to speak to anyone I know in public. I have been taking 100mg of sertaline for about 3 weeks now and nothing is changing with the way I feel when outside. There maybe 1 day out the week were I dont have any panic symptoms then boom back to extreme next day. This makes me feel so low Im at home all the time doing nothing losing motivation for everything. I feel so mentally ill and everyone notices my insecurities about it. Hopefully CBT service hurrys up and gets back to me..I cannot cope this way any longer.
