DearWe understand your concernsI went through your details. I am amazed at the way you wrote all those symptoms. There are organic problems as well as psychological problems. I am concerned about the worries you carry. That worries are actually being obsessive and trouble you too much and naturally you carry your anxiety and panic attacks too. The more you worry, the more you try to escape from anxiety, anxiety will trouble you. Be with the worries, don't escape, learn to enjoy those worries, watch it, learn it, understand it, then you will know how to manage them. Consult a psychologist for life coaching.If you still need my assistance in this regard, please use this link.
