anxiety attacks

I have to get a car because my engine died due to an oil pump failure and it’s going to cost 6 k to get fixed. I have a loaner car that’s a beater but I need to find a car and make payments I guess, but I can’t find one and I get horrible panic attacks whenever I think about it. I have no one to help me and I can’t do it by myself because of anxiety. I don’t know what to do and I am so afraid. Does anyone have any suggestions?

I'm 60..going through divorce,selling house,moved out,two surgeries, needing to find a house...everything is up in the air and panic attacks ..anxiety..but when I put the brakes on and pause my thinking and be grateful for what I do have it helps to think more clearly....on vehicles..you can find remanufactured engines to be installed..used engines also...if it's a new or old car ...look in Nextdoor app around your neighborhood...ask for help, ask who is a good repair shop or car dealer...you will get a lot of information....usually you will see certain places highly recommended by many people..and places to not go...you might find someone to help too...hang in there you can do this...so can I..sharing helps..take action and don't let this overwhelm you!
