Nervous breakdown/depression
Since last 3 months I am feeling very stressed and suffocated in my nearby surroundings.This feeling is aggrevated if I am the focus point in a normal conversation of my group(generally colleagues)..I almost feel like crying and there is difficulty in breathing too and if I get conscious of it,the feeling is worsened.This is increasing day by day, although most of times I am as normal as I used to be but only when I meet people and talk to them with eye contact I get this feeling.The first time I had this feeling was when I was asked to say something about my inspiration in front of some 15 ppl in my office(it was kinda casual and informal only)I started off normally but then suddenly I became conscious of my voice and me and then I almost cried.There is no stress as such in life.Life is in a much better state than it was before.Some small sad things happnd at the starting stage of this.For eg.I sold my bike with which I had some emotional attachment as i bought it with my first salary

Hi,
There may not be a temporal correlation between anxiety/ depression and stress at times.
A new environment/ a new job can cause some adjustment problems like in your case.
You have mentioned that it is causing you distress for the last three months so please seek professional help
Next Steps
Please visit a psychiatrist
