Feeling anxious while going out

2024-04-12 13:38:52
I am a college student and my college is a bit far so I have to travel 12 kms daily. Few days ago I experienced shortness of breathe and feeling of passing out which has created issues in my daily life. My exams are going on and I am having fear of going out, whenever I am in crowded places I feel suffocated, i also feel that I am not able to breathe and that I am going to faint or whenever I am walking or standing i feel that I'm going to faint. My symptoms are Shakiness, Again and again gulping to feel comfortable, cannot focus on anything else, hands get cold, sweats, I need someone to take me from my college to home, I don't know how this started because I was able to travel to my college more than a year. I try mindfulness but the symptoms are very severe and I cannot focus on anything. I try counting numbers. I was also given two injections because of the anxiety and when I lay down or sit I feel better. How do I deal with this, it has created a problem in daily life.

Hi Thanks for reaching out. You have a fear of going out. Based on what you have mentioned I suggest consulting a psychiatrist for diagnosis and consult a psychologist for counselling sessions. At present you are having exams, and you feel anxious in a crowded place. You feel like you are going to faint. With the help and guidance of a mental health professional you can overcome anxiety and feel calm. Try to not be too hard on yourself, with the help of counselling sessions you can gradually work on overcoming anxiety.

Contact me for counselling sessions. Along with counselling I can suggest natural foods to calm the mind.
