First thing find yourself a Board Certified Psychiatrist-even if you have to travel to see him or her. This is a very impt. first step. A good pdoc will give you a number of tests i.e.,thyroid and others and after a thorough interview make a hopefully correct diagnosis. Your anxiety sounds very bad-I know the feeling, You need a pdoc who will prescribe benzos- like ativan or xanax. You need relief right NOW!! Then depending on the diagnosis he will prescribe the appropriate medication that should help or eliminate your anxiety. But please be patient (easier said then done I know) but it may take a few trys on different meds to find the right one. REMEMBER...you will get relief, so hang in there, stay in touch with the people here, and most importantly find the right pdoc. And if you believe in God ask for His help...I do believe in God and I will Pray for you. Please take care of yourself,and never give up...you will get better!
