Prisoner in my own head

So yesterday marked my three week sober mark. Ive about matched my longest streak since I had a hiccup and binged one night. Had my good and bad days but this third week ive had several days of bad anxiety. Fast pulse, light headed, fainting feeling, twitchy feeing on eyelids, tingly shivering feeling in arms. Yesterday got a phone call about a potential job interview, I was left in a panic, mind racing all day worrying. I had finally had enough with the anxiety over the weekend and tried to get in to see a doctor, but I cant see them till next week. I have been taking potassium, b complex vitamins, and magnesium after reading there may b a difficiency. I'm hopping I can see if symptoms are anxiety, vatamin def, or bloodsugar diabetes related.
This week I feel like a prisoner in my own head. I'm constantly trying to keep it together. I'm focusing on breathing. I'm trying to do exercises to prevent worry. I have a weird head pressure. I'm not even craving alcohol, but I just want a relief from these symptoms. The only time I don't feel trapped in my head is the cpl hours after I shower at night and layin bed watching tv. I feel so hopeless right now.
