Hi
Thanks for using healthcare magic
In your case, you have multiple problem like obsessive compulsive with specific phobia. You need antidepressant like fluoxetine or paroxetine. Better to consult a psychiatrist for proper management. You also need consultation from psychologist for behavioral therapy in form of exposure therapy and relaxation exercise. In case, you need further help, you can ask.
Thanks
