Psychologist 's  Response
Dear
Welcome to HCM
We understand your concerns

I went through your details. I suggest you not to worry much. You are already 16 and you should know this is not how to look at this. I hope you did talk to elders. I suggest you should consult a psychologist soon and explain everything in detail. The reason is supposed to be trauma or terror which occurred sometime back. Knowing that makes it easy to overcome it.

OR You can post a direct question to me in this website. Include every detail as much as you can. I shall prescribe some psychotherapy techniques to control your condition. I am sure that the techniques should be a success.

Hope this answers your query. Available for further clarifications.
Good luck.
