I agree with onesnowyowl. It sounds like your anxiety is short-term, not something you've had since the age of 10 or anything like that. Being on some medication will help stabilize you so that you can deal with whatever problems have caused this anxiety. One possibility is you may just be burnt out from getting straight As in school all the time. Can you take a semester off school to give yourself time to relax? Also, your acid reflux could be getting worse because of your anxiety, and vice-versa. Sort of an infinite loop. I know that when I am experiencing lots of anxiety and stress, my digestive tract gets really weird with diarrhea and cramping. Talking about your worries with someone you feel safe with will probably help, or alternatively writing them down in a journal. Verbalizing worries may help you see that there is much less to worry about than you originally thought.
