It went well! Still couldn't see anything wrong with my optical nerves or anything. He prescribed me an antidepressant an anti anxiety and sleeping pills.

Sounds like Locksey has given you sound advice, it doesn't sound like pots if Locksey says your symptoms are wrong, but probably is anxiety/panic like Locksey said.

Best to go to a doctor and get it ruled out completely so that you can then stop worrying about having it, and if anxiety/panic can try to learn to calm yourself down whenever possible.
