The answer

What you are experiencing is a medical condition that requires consulting doctors. We advise you to struggle against this feeling and strive to get rid of it. What helps you with this is to gather your resolve for prayer and reflection on the verses and remembrances (adhkar), and to feel the greatness of Allah Almighty and the seriousness of your standing before Him, so that people hold no weight in your mind. You have the leeway to pray in congregation with some of your family in your home, and by doing so, the obligation of congregational prayer (in the mosque) is lifted from you. However, this is not a solution to your problem. Rather, the solution lies in resisting this feeling, so that you do not miss out on the reward of witnessing the congregation in the mosque.
