Do you think I have an anxiety disorder?

Hello!! I'm Sara a 16 year old girl.

So this could easly be a long story but imma try my best to keep it short.

All my life I've been shy and quite. I've been in therapy for it and recently just got out simply because I hated it.

The thing is. I fear so much. Like Ice recety gotten my permit and all I can think about while driving is me dying by another car. I know it's bad. I will get so paranoid that I literally go crazy.

I have feelings I'm going to die almost everyday. I mean I don't want to but yea.

My OCD is also terriable. Like it's just gotten bad. I've found that OCD ties in with anxiety.

Also my social anxiety. I feel like that's why I'm quite around others because I want to talk but I feel so scared..

I want to take medicine for it. My mom,brother,AND sister all have ******* anxiety problems. I don't know why my mom doesn't think I don't have it. Like I don't know how to ask her.

I just don't want to get to the point were I'm scared to go outside.

Thanks

    exercise and deep slow breathing will calm you, avoid rapid shallow panting
