Time to seek help?

So, i had a drug experience years ago that got too much for me, induced a pretty massive panic attack. I tried for a decade to self medicate basically. Ive cleaned up my life, my diet, no drugs, very little alcohol. The panic persists, seems to be getting worse in fact. I feel an overwhelming sense of judgement and scrutiny when meeting new people...even just going shopping. I think my face is going to betray me, which exacerbates the feeling. Im on holidays right now, i live in a small town, i think it might be time to see someone and maybe try some sort of medication for this? Depression goes with it, but i dont beleive its as big an issue as the anxiety. Ive tried breathing (which helps), yoga, exercise...im fit and healthy, apart from Jiu Jitsu, i cant focus properly on any of these other exercise/relaxation techniques.

Is it appropriate to see a Doctor while away from home to start the ball rolling? Im terrified at the prospect of opening up about this to someone face to face, but willing to try, i should be enjoying my life far more than i currently do.
