Hello
Welcome to HCM.
I can understand your concerns.
Based on your symptoms, I think you have anxiety-depression syndrome.
The best way out would be to start an antidepressant drug like fluoxetine or escitalopram (prescription drugs) under a psychiatrist's supervision.
These are safe and effective drugs.
Also, you can practice relaxation exercises like deep breathing and meditation.
Hope this helps you to get out of this.
