problem. It's a horrible cycle, but you're running out of options as you start getting into the situation where you are unable to ask people how to help you with your problem communicating with people... Here's an idea: get the address on the front of the building and mail the doctors office a letter. You're not confronting the doctor face to face, you're asking your question, and it will give him the opportunity to approach you on your next visit or call you back (hopefully, if he's a worth a damn doctor) A GP is a general doctor. What you need is a specialist, namely a psychiatrist. There are many medicines for anxiety and many different doseages. Do not go to a doctor you are not comfortable with. Not sure of your age--but schools and many jobs have counselors. theye are usually a psychologist. A psychologist cannot prescribe medicine because they are not a medical doctor. But they can do counseling and steer you in the right direction. Best wishes You can ask to see another doctor, you can ask to do this over the phone of it helps. if this doctor is also of no help ask to see one of the practice nurses or CPN (community psychiatric nurses) as they're generally nicer and you don't technically need to see a doctor for something like this.
