Hi
Thanks for using healthcare magic
I think, you have anxiety disorder like performance anxiety. In that case, you need antidepressant like paroxetine with low dose benzodiazepine. You can also try some relaxation exercise like JPMR or relaxation exercise. Better to consult a psychiatrist and psychologist for proper therapy. In case, you need further help, you can ask.
Thanks
