panic attacks

Hello I am a 19 year old college student. I have been suffering from anxiety and panic attacks for about a week now. It started off thinking I was going to die, then thinking god doesn't love me, now I had a panic attack thinking I have scizophrenia due to me researching why I keep feeling this way. Before I was a kid living the college life chasing girls, going out, staying up late enjoying life. I got better for a couple of days, and then I saw the word schizophrenia and started freaking myself out. I feel like I'm going crazy and feel like I'm losing touch with reality. I can't sleep, I feel so awful and scared.  I hope someone can help.
Thanks

Keep your head up. feel free to reach out to friends and family for help. If not, consider seeking guidance from a therapist or reaching out to someone from your church.

There is help. Remember you are not alone. There are people who love you, reach out to them for help.

You don't have schizophrenia.  But you might need to talk to a therapist about your new fears.
