I'd like some advice from a professional about my anxiety problem & fear of social situations.

I have a hard time going out in public because I feel that if I do something bad is going to happen to me.. I've been through a few traumatic instances (which I am not going to mention) that had happened while in public.

I really want to get a job but am scared to come out of my comfort zone.

I also have racing thoughts that I can't stop. I always second-guess myself. The thoughts I have aren't weird or anything like that -- they're just constant, worrysome thoughts.. I guess you could say that my constant thinking leads to the anxiety where I eventually lose control and make the decision to run out of a situation.

I've been told I should go on Lithium because it would help me with my anxiety & racing thoughts.. I want to go to a psychologist as well.
