It's normal for this to be kind of bothersome, but things are really fucking up. I think I have paranoia. I start uncontrollably shaking, get cottonmouth, can't focus on what anybody is even saying to me sometimes. I know this is my mind creating delusions, but it takes a huge toll and people are thinking I'm really fucking odd because of it, especially her.
Now I'm seeing a psychiatrist starting next week. I've been feeling depressed excessively. Has anyone else had anything similar?

I think you're mixing two specific things there. The depression comes across like it isn't caused by your girlfirend getting close to something else, therefore the
anxiety that this causes is having more serious repercussions on other aspects of your own life, hence the amplified downer. Perhaps it's a warning sign that you need to deal with your whole view of what relationships are made of when they are going to work out for the best, one aspects of which is being prepared to cope with things that you had imagined could not be possible when you're in one.
