Super personal but maybe wanted advice?

Question

I live in constant fear that I’m going to be killed. I’m nervous to go in public places, sit in a parked car, walk anywhere or be alone. I’m constantly looking over my shoulders, constantly on full alert of my surroundings, in constant stress and anxiety over this fear. Nothing traumatizing has ever happened to me in that way. This fear has been going on forever and gets worse and worse by the day. I tried therapy but nothing helps and it’s hurting my everyday life. What on earth can I do to stop this :(
UPDATE: since I’m too embarrassed to be off anonymous...I went to therapy for 2 years with strict cbt therapy

Answer

It’s time to see a therapist.

Answer

OCD maybe?

Answer

Unfortunately, death anxiety is going around like the flu these days, specifically here in America, where mass shootings are happening. I too worry about going out in public for these reasons. I fear for my children's safety the most. However, I don't let these intrusive thoughts control my everyday life, nor should you. 
Try not to let your anxiety and fears get the best of you. You can't control the future or other people's actions. The reality is tomorrow is not promised. This goes for everyone. All we can do is make the best of the time we have. Don't let the time you have be spent in constant fear and on edge. How debilitating that would be! Life is too short to put yourself through all that pointless suffering.
I'm truly sorry you're going through this. Please seek help, so you can have a beautiful, happy life that's worth living. Take care love ♥️

Answer

You tried therapy? For how long and what treatments ?

Answer

See I’m like this too.. but I have personal reasons on WHY I’m like this that age back to when I was 10. 
& also because I live in a dangerous town.

Answer

This is now at the stage it's becoming debilitating. I know it's hard, but honey you NEED to see a therapist. It will not get better if you let it carry on like this.

Answer

Me too! I HATE going anywhere alone, it’s even worse if I have to take my daughter with me. I’m afraid to even be friendly to strangers because I don’t want to draw any attention to myself. I did go get on medication and it has helped some!
