Should I ask to see a psychologist?
I have been suffering from panic attacks for the past 2 years. I now think I have agoraphobia and social anxiety. The thing is, I am leaving the states for Europe very soon. To soon to complete a CBT course and cure anything. I'm wondering if European psychologists would be able to handle me, I'll be in different countries every month/week. My parents will look at me like a freak if I need psychological help and that contributes to my hesitation. I will probably freak out at the airport, but silently, except for the occasional flushing of the face or diva moment which I seem to churn out when nervous. Is there any medication that will at least help me get through all the changes calmly? I also have to be at a party in a huge restaurant in a few days where I will be the center of attention and I really don't want to go but I have to. It's killing me, I wish I could just hide somewhere. I get irritated very easily and when I do, it's all downhill from there. I start having hot flashes and vertigo type experiences. I've been practically not leaving the house, only for a walk at night or early morning with someone. I'm so going crazy here. I can't even enjoy anything. MEDS PLEASE! I'm 17. =/ People, I have pain killers, would those help?
