Stop Anxiety and Panic Attacks

i’ve had a mild case of social anxiety for years now and feel like its time to get treated for it. I don’t fear going out into public but when i do i get shaky, cant sit still, sometimes i lose coordination. I want to get treatment but would like it to be descreet. how can i go about in doing this? where do i go? i am under my parent’s medical coverage with Kaiser and i don’t want them to find out that im going to get treatment for this. will they find out? will this be on my medical record?

This is not uncommon and it doesn’t mean there is anything wrong with you. You shouldn’t be ashamed of it or embarassed about it. You need to go ahead and talk to your parents about seeing a counselor. Usually, the Company doesn’t handle its own insurance clams. They hire a company to do that. It will be on your medical records, but it isn’t mental illness and the company they work for probably won’t see it anyway. This is just anxiety and a counselor can help you get over it. Good luck!
