I know arachnophobia is normal, but I get a full on anxiety attack (hyperventilating, shaking, crying hysterically, etc.) that is quite severe and after it is over, I feel nauseous, I have a headache, and I am sore all over my body. All this from a spider. Is it normal?

I am a 15 year old female and I have depression and OCD as well, if it matters.

I know it is supposed to take several weeks to help depression but is it the same with anxiety? I feel that social anxiety is a bigger problem for me than the depression itself.

I’ve been taking 10mg Prozac for 2 weeks and just 3 days ago my doc took me up to 20mg.

Not having any Anxiety attacks or anxiety about anything. Being so numb to everything around you. I don’t know if it’s God giving me the the gift of calmness during hard times, or if it is the numbness of depression.
