Fateh Ji,

Please contact your GP and be honest about how you are feeling to them, just as you have done here. They can refer you to a psychologist who can help and you will overcome these difficulties. I've known people that you have experienced the same feelings as you have mentioned here and have spoken to someone about it who has been able to help them. Alongside this, as others will likely mention...try and do some Simran if you're not already and hopefully this will help you keep your anxieties at bay. I wish you all the best and know that things will get better and telling someone what is going on with you is the first step. Please don't be ashamed, there are things out there that can help.

I think you are having panic attacks, you should see your doctor about this. There are ways to control it. But you need professional help if you are feeling this bad with it, and are unable to control it.

Dont be afraid of seeing the doctor, he/she is there to help you. You are not going to die, Waheguru ji will help you. Do ardas to Sri Guru Granth Sahib ji, and say Maharaj ji please help me, please stop this anxiety. Take deep breaths slowly, and just relax.

Listen to the following and close your eyes, and do the simran as it is being played.

Chaupai Sahib paat will help with the fear, do it everyday.

But please see the doctor is you feel you cannot cope.

ਰਾਮਈਆ ਹਉ ਬਾਰਿਕੁ ਤੇਰਾ ॥

Raamaiyaa Hau Baarik Tera ||

O Lord, I am Your child.

ਕਾਹੇ ਨ ਖੰਡਸਿ ਅਵਗਨੁ ਮੇਰਾ ॥੧॥ ਰਹਾਉ ॥

Kaahae Na Khandas Avagun Meraa ||1|| Rehaao ||

Why not destroy my sins? ||1||Pause||

ਜੇ ਅਤਿ ਕ੍ਰੋਪ ਕਰੇ ਕਰਿ ਧਾਇਆ ॥

Jae Ath Krop Karae Kar Dhhaaeiaa ||

If the son, in anger, runs away,

ਤਾ ਭੀ ਚੀਤਿ ਨ ਰਾਖਸਿ ਮਾਇਆ ॥੨॥

Thaa Bhee Cheeth Na Raakhis Maeya ||2||

Even then, his mother does not hold it against him in her mind. ||2||

ਚਿੰਤ ਭਵਨਿ ਮਨੁ ਪਰਿਓ ਹਮਾਰਾ ॥

Chinth Bhavan Man Pariou Hamaaraa ||

My mind has fallen into the whirlpool of anxiety.

ਨਾਮ ਬਿਨਾ ਕੈਸੇ ਉਤਰਸਿ ਪਾਰਾ ॥੩॥

Naam Binaa Kaisae uthras Paaraa ||3||

Without the Naam, how can I cross over to the other side? ||3||

ਦੇਹਿ ਬਿਮਲ ਮਤਿ ਸਦਾ ਸਰੀਰਾ ॥

Dhaehi Bimal Math Sadhaa Sareeraa ||

Please, bless my body with pure and lasting understanding, Lord;

ਸਹਜਿ ਸਹਜਿ ਗੁਨ ਰਵੈ ਕਬੀਰਾ ॥੪॥੩॥੧੨॥

Sehaj Sehaj Gun Ravai Kabeeraa ||4||3||12||

in peace and poise, Kabeer chants the Praises of the Lord. ||4||3||12||

Jag Rachanaa Sabh Jhooth Hai Jaan Laehu Rae Meeth ||

The world and its affairs are totally false; know this well, my friend.

Keheh Naanak Thhir Naa Rehai Jio Baaloo Kee Bheeth ||49||

Says Nanak, it is like a wall of sand; it shall not endure. ||49||

Raam Gayo Raavan Gayo Jaa Ko Bahu Paravaar ||

Raam Chand passed away, as did Raawan, even though he had lots of relatives.

Kahu Naanak Thhir Kashh Nehee Supanae Jio Sansaar ||50||

Says Nanak, nothing lasts forever; the world is like a dream. ||50||

Chinthaa Thaa Kee Keejeeai Jo Anehonee Hoe ||

People become anxious, when something unexpected happens.

Eihu Maarag Sansaar Ko Naanak Thhir Nehee Koe ||51||

This is the way of the world, O Nanak; nothing is stable or permanent. ||51||

Jo Oupajiou So Binas Hai Paro Aaj Kai Kaal ||

Whatever has been created shall be destroyed; everyone shall perish, today or tomorrow.

Naanak Har Gun Gaae Lae Shhaadd Sagal Janjaal ||52||

O Nanak, sing the Glorious Praises of the Lord, and give up all other entanglements. ||52||
