Anxiety is the worst! I once was in a bar w/ friends and feeling completely "weird" the moment I walked in
*feeling like I was being stared at
*talked about
*laughed at
I got to the point of such panic and all at the same time trying to act "normal" That I ended up blacking out and actually fainting from it
RIGHT THERE IN THE MIDDLE OF A BAR! and to make matters worse my friends say right b/4 I fainted I got up and was acting all weird and saying crazy things and then I went down and (it kills me to "say" this outloud) if everything that already happened wasn't bad enough I ended up peeing my pants when I fainted

they ended up calling the ambulance and it got crazy I had to go to the ER and all that bull...they thought I was on drugs and stuff but honestly I barley even drank one beer.

This is not the first time a attack in public happened, I had one at work so bad and I was so embarrassed I never even went back for my paycheck....they ended up sending it but it took forever

good luck with this issue just know you are deff. not alone!

Professional help seems prudent, MyMind119911.

Yes, I can only second what's already been said above. We are a support forum, but cannot take the place of medication or therapy where needed.
With those symptoms, I really think you need to see a doctor and ask for professional help

@ruffy , @sugaHorse : thanks a lot for ur support .. but i really don't wanna go to theriply or mental health ... i think its a small business and i dont wanna those guys to take my money and besides .. i feel really down when i go to places like this one

@mamaJenof5 : iam so sorry for that .. but believe me i been there alooot of times ... i can easly say .. all the time ... i didnt getout of my room for like 3 years

@TheByzantine: i can say its true .. but they care about more money more than anything like ... once my doctor gave me her Cell-phone wrong .. just so i can came again some-othere time .. cant trust her .

MyMind119911, it is your choice. No one can force you to get better.

I think you realise that there are always bad apples amongst an otherwise great fruitbowl. Just chatting to people on this forum you will realise what a God-send their therapists and p-docs have been.
I really can empathise with you, as I too once had a p-doc where I felt he was just after money and definitely not really caring about the patient. But just because you experienced one bad one, doesn't mean there isn't the right one for you out there. Maybe ask for recommendations from your GP, or even on this forum - ask for therapists and p-doc's in your area (I assume Egypt, Cairo?). But don't lose hope that you will find the right one for your needs.
The online test you did clearly indicates that some form of therapy and possibly medication would be beneficial. We are not qualified therapists, nor can we advise what medication you require, nor prescribe. But trust that once you have started your therapy, we are here to support you.
