Probably social anxiety disorder (S.A.D.). Definitely some type of anxiety disorder. There are a number of medications that can help (Paxil, Zoloft) and when combined with therapy can be very effective in managing your disorder. Don't be afraid to get help because you don't have to live like that. Get help from professionals and keep in charge of your life.

Perhaps you get the feeling that other people are looking at you, or that there is something "on your behind" or something like that.
Probably is some sort of phobia, go out with some friends and explain your situation, and when things start to feel terrible, tell them and talk about it. You can always talk to a professional.

It could be a social phobia or a panic attack disorder. The best thing tobe is see a therapist. They are better in dealing with phobia's then a regular family doctor.

We can all develop unfounded fears and phobias at any time in our lives. Please see your doctor and get a referral to a psychiatrist, you could have one of several conditions, and you need a proper diagnosis and the right drugs for your problem. A psychologist cannot prescribe drugs for you. Don't be afraid or discouraged, lots of people need help coping with exactly what you're going through. Please try to limit your exposure to public places until you can get to see a doctor.

you sound so sad, and full of social anxiety...for whatever reason, things just are overwhelming you when you go out and about...really take inventory of what is bothering you before you go shopping,...and just look around you and see that there really are people worse off than you, and they just keep on truckin ....God Bless sweetheart, say your prayers, and thank God and Jesus everyday for another day you are alive, and able to change things for yourself for the better...see what you can do for others...
