Close Agoraphobia & Social Anxiety

I have always had a fear of speaking in public, until it got to the point where I was missing classes at University because I didnt want to introduce myself, or get asked a question. I would also skip classs if i was late because I had a fear of walking in to class alone and everyone watching me. I have now developed anxiety and panic attacks.

Close Anxiety

I have been somewhat nervous my whole life, speaking in public is a huge fear of mine. I have in the past 3 or so years been experiencing anxiety & panic attacks. I also have a fear of being sick which seems so irrational but that is what makes it so hard to deal with. I find travelling hard (airplanes, cars, buses, trains etc.) anywhere that I feel like if I wanted to get out I couldnt. Elevators, auditoriums, uni classes,

Treatments

Paxil Working / Worked

It worked however I felt it was affecting my diet, I couldnt eat much, never felt hungry, and had weird dizzy spells alot. Also loss of sex drive.
