question: Hi doctor, I am 30 years old. I do not like being in public. I do not do anything fun. I have a thought that always people in my surroundings are looking at me. So I would rather be at home. I do not like using the phone. I am taking Klonopin 2 mg 3 times a day. But I am not taking it now as I am travelling with my husband state to state for his job. With regards to anxiety my symptoms are extreme worry, classic panic attacks sometimes 5-6 times a day, feel hard to breath, stomach sick. I do not get motivated to do anything like shower, changing clothes, cleaning house, keep a job. My husband will do most of the shopping including grocery. I forgot any type of social get together with friends and family. I do not even visit my in-laws.  I feel tiredness in my whole body, a tense feel and headache. When I take Klonopin these symptoms will disappear. I have been on this medication since 13 years. Can anxiety be the cause for such issues or is it something else? I wish to spend some time outside with my family. Please explain what is wrong with me.
