People do suffer from long term paranoia, so keep in mind that it's a possibility, and also doctors can be wrong.
One doctor talks to you and suggests that your doctor prescribe anti-anxiety drugs, and they don't work.
I think you need to be seen by a psychiatrist, or a psychologist who can see you several times.
