On the edge

I feel so lost and feel as if I am about to lose it. I am thinking of going to an inpatient hospital in Austin, Texas. It's called Austin lake hospital. I'm thinking of maybe me going there it might help me. I feels like everything I do is not actually happening, whether it's when I try and talk or do something physically nothing feels real. My therapist says it is anxiety, but I think it might be like a severe case, because I am not able to do anything. I have not been to work, it's kinda hard for me to eat, and I just stay coped up in my room. I am constantly checkingy heart beat and feel as if I am going to have a panic/ anxiety attack. I zone out most of the time. I constantly have to be on the phone to try and keep my mind busy on something which sometimes works. Help with any suggestions.

Any type of street use drugs. Especially uppers are a terrible mix with anxiety. But yes Prozac and klonopin

Every time I try and do something i get so scared of having a panic attack or I feel so weird because it's as if its not me doing it. I feel liike the room is floating around me. About. Month ago I had a bad trip on cocaine and since then my life has spiraled down. Are you taking any medications

You said keeping your mind busy works. Go on hikes, go to the park. Go fishing. Play a instense video game. Make clothes. Play a sport.  Find a hobby. Staying on the couch or in bed only makes things worse. Try to keep busy! Work actually helps my anxiety! When I sit on the couch all day and do no nothing my anxiety is crushing. Think positive thoughts.
