Doctor visit accomplished... I'm getting new anxiety meds to try, but I have to start slow and ramp up from there, if needed... and medically, I get that...
I also get some more of these emergency pills, in the interim, which I know do help, so that's useful.
The doctor wants me to go see a therapist, and I'm not sure what good that will do. I know what my triggers are... other people, and I can't avoid those.
No amount of coping mechanisms will change that I have severe social anxiety, but I still have to go out and deal with other people to be able to afford to live.

@JulieSqveakaroo A therapist can help more than you think. There's more to coping with anxiety than just avoiding your triggers.

@Felthry I've had good and bad therapists... most of the bad were more Christian counselors, than therapists, so their goals were not necessarily my best interests...
... but you're right... I may be missing insight.
