Anxiety Disorder can be very disabling and as you can see you are unable to hold a job and carry out activities of daily living normally because of your problem, so I would strongly recommend you to get in touch with a Psychiatrist at the earliest and start treatment

Hi there,
A detailed medical and psychiatric history is always needed for every patient. In addition to that, a detailed mental status examination is also recommended for every patient to come to a diagnosis and management accordingly.
Next Steps
There is always a hope of improvements in every case . You are likely to improve with psychiatric medications and also will need psychological interventions. That will not improve your mental health now but also will help in preventing future relapse.
Health Tips
Do consult a mental health professional as soon as possible. Early intervention is always better in every case.
