...evaluation? I am 16 and I worry excessively about stuff and I obsess over things... its a big long story. Well should I go into my regular doctor and try and explain everything or should I just go into my regular doctor and request a referral to a mental healthy professional for evaluation??
I have already talked to my parents thank you very much and I am going to the regular doctor next week!!
Uh I am still in high school
 
First, talk with your parents to see if mental health is covered by their insurance. There may be guidelines or preferred doctors. You doctor would be a good place to start. They know your health history, and a little bit about you, so should be able to recommend a good therapist for you.

Being that you are only 16, it's great that you realize this is something you can deal with in a better fashion, with a little help. I hope it goes well for you.
