I've been anxious for the last ten days. I feel frozen. Have been obsessively checking social media and the news. I'm basically still and numb until I devolve into to tears. The tension in my chest is pervasive. I feel a sense of dread. I can't focus or think clearly about work. Haven't been able to work all week. Breathing exercises only provide temporary relief. Can't stop doomscrolling. Socialization sometimes makes it worse. Haven't been able to get enough sleep, even with good sleep hygiene. Exercise is hit or miss. I'm concerned about my job. I have missed a lot of work recently.   I missed my period for the third time this year. 

Should I see a doctor? I am afraid to see them. One misdiagnosed me, and now I am very wary of them. But I feel like my career may fall apart if I don't.
