Anxiety and starting to see a doctor

Abby

My anxiety started to get really noticeable and unmanageable last year when I started my sophomore year of college. The classes were harder and I was the most stressed I’ve ever been which I think is what caused the anxiety to flare up like it did. Now that I am home for the summer it calmed down a bit until two weeks ago. I am supposed to be finally getting my license after putting it off because of anxiety and now it seems impossible again. I also have been feeling down about my relationship with my boyfriend for the past few weeks even though he is so wonderful and nothing has changed between us. I don’t know what to do and he suggested to go talk to someone about it. How would I get started doing that? I don’t have a primary care physician yet since when I have to see a doctor it’s in a time crunch so my pediatrician just squeezes me in. Is this something a physician would deal with or should I talk to a therapist/psychiatrist?
