I have had inconsistent panic attacks for the last 6 months, and also experience a miriad of different symptoms of GAD that I've found on the internet like intrusive thoughts, sleep problems, trouble concentrating etc. I know they were panic attacks because I talked to someone with diagnosed GAD and described the attacks in detail, they said it's most probably GAD but also said I should still see a psychiatrist to confirm. But the problem is that my parents are not willing to go see one, (I haven't asked but they have mentioned it when I talked to them about my panic attacks) they haven't said why, so I don't know if it's maybe because they're in denial, but I don't want to assume anything (about them or the anxiety).
What should I do?
