My mom saying you will be fine with time but don't know about it.
I think you should continue taking medicine so that you can lead a comfortable life. Medicine can't help alone in your case & you need proper CBT (Psychotherapy /counselling) sessions.

Hi, thank you for bravely sharing your experience. What you’re going through sounds incredibly difficult, and I want you to know that you are not alone.
From what you've shared, it seems like you may be dealing with Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD) or Panic Disorder, possibly with a genetic vulnerability. The physical symptoms like palpitations, stomach upset, and "ghabrahat" when traveling or being alone are very common in anxiety-related conditions.
Next Steps
1. Consult a Psychiatrist Again
2. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is very effective for anxiety and overthinking. A trained psychologist can help you.:
a. Break the cycle of negative thoughts.
b. Work on confidence and self-esteem.
c. Gradually overcome fear of traveling or riding.
Health Tips
1. Exercise regularly, even a brisk walk helps.
2. Sleep well and maintain a regular schedule.
3. Practice deep breathing or mindfulness meditation daily (even 10 minutes can help).
4. Reduce caffeine, sugar, and alcohol as they worsen anxiety.

What you are describing is a part of the Anxiety Spectrum of Disorders. It does sound very brutal and debilitating. I would like to advice you to go ahead and visit a qualified Psychiatrist so that your detailed history can be evaluated. And according to each and every symptom the medications will be tailored. Apart from that once medications start it is necessary for you to go for therapy after a month or so of medicines. Hoping speedy recovery for you.

Anxiety can feel overwhelming, especially when it affects daily life and comes with physical symptoms like palpitations, stomach issues, and fears that limit your freedom.
Anxiety disorders are treatable. A therapist or psychiatrist can help you. Also some medical conditions need to be ruled out in some cases such as thyroid disorders, gut health problems and nutritional deficiencies as they may mimic anxiety disorders.
