You've clearly got so much going on and struggling with it all, I definitely suggest you book an appointment with a GP to talk about the treatment options best for you. You might find that one issue is feeding in to another and causing further issues. And as it sounds like you're struggling so much right now I don't know that a support group would be of much benefit anyway, not until you have a handle on some of your social anxiety stuff, so don't even worry that you don't have the time or ability to attend those things. Start by finding that kind of support places like this forum, where you can see that you're not alone in what you're experiencing.

I don't have my license yet, I am 34 now and only just learning to drive now! I have two kids and last year my family moved to the suburbs away from the city so I am isolated at home with two small kids. I totally understand how difficult you must find it. I also understand how difficult it is to get motivated to go anywhere using public transport when you have some kind of anxiety about being put or around people. But perhaps by getting on top of some of that anxiety you won't find the lack of a car to be such a debilitating issue.

Head to the doctor. You could see a huge improvement in your symptoms and outlook within days or weeks.
