Hey man. Sorry to hear. I have some of those, but nothing that really interferes with my life. I hate crowded areas, sometimes get hot flashes and the throat closing too (that one sux, no way to get rid of that & it often lingers for hours).

I'm not on meds for this and only would be if it got a lot worse. My ex, though, got addicted to xanax VERY quickly. It was scary. So be careful. For me personally, it gets better by being thrown in the fire, so to speak. It sucks at first but college had that effect on me. For the first few months I had anxiety but one day I noticed it had calmed down. Same with partys, bars, etc.

I don't know how bad your condition is; if you need meds then you need meds. But going back to school might not be the worse thing for your anxiety, in the long run. Good luck dude.

(BTW are you ever incredibly jealous of all these people that clearly don't give a fvck? Man...how nice that must be. They seem to live such a happier life.)
