i am 25 years old i have been suffering with anxiety since the age off 14 i can not get on any transport or be in public arreas i am housebound if i do go out i have to be with someone as i go dizzy, sweaty palms, feeling sick loads more. im not on any medications for this as i try and battle with the anxiety myself...if i do have to go in a car i have to sit in the front i can not sit in the back as i have bad panic attacks. i wear seaband bracelets on my wrist and have ginger sweets that does work to a certain extent but not all the time. its not a nice thing to suffer with it controlls my life as i cant go and socialize with freinds or do anything else, i have a phobia of buses if they drive past me strait away i will have a panic attack. i dont no what else to do? can someone help me whos going through this to?

Are you seeing a therapist who specializes in anxiety treatment, particularly CBT?  And I agree with the above, if your life is that circumscribed, you probably do need to see a psychiatrist about medication to at least discuss it.  But don't expect medication to substitute for therapy -- and good luck.
