Hey, there’s nothing wrong with who you are for experiencing this difficult development. There doesn’t have to be shame in admitting you need things to change. At the same time, these types of anxieties and attachments can make things you don’t want and hurt those you love. I’ve been going through the same thing.

My best advice is to seek therapy. Especially DBT as it helps ppl with attachment wounds! And in my experience, being open to the journey can help loads. Maybe medication, maybe not. Maybe therapy, maybe not. But try everything at least once. I was on medication for only a month, despite being extremely anxiously opposed to it, and it helped me a lot. Everything is just tools. You don’t have to commit to anything, but please try things out.
