Anxiety/Social anxiety stories

Does anyone else get pretty bad anxiety? Sometimes I feel like I'm the only one and it really sucks. 
When I'm out to dinner or at the store where a lot of people are around, I always get anxiety and feel like I'm about to pass out, but I never do! 
My boyfriend can always tell when I have anxiety cuz I always play with my hair or can't stop moving around. He's very comforting. 
I don't like going out alone unless it's to local places that I've been to many times before. 
I hate anxiety! It really sucks! I am prescribed Xanax but I hate taking medication so I try to take it as little as possible. I haven't taken it for 3 months.
I'm so scared of death and every time I get anxiety I think I'm having a heart attack when I know I'm not!! I'm VERY healthy. 
I would really love to feel like I'm not alone if anyone would be comfortable sharing their stories with me. And how you deal with anxiety. 
Thanks :) 
P.S please don't be rude!
