The answer

It is advisable to consult specialists in psychiatry. For one who has reached fifty, it is fitting to persevere in acts of obedience and congregational prayers. If you fear leading people in prayer, do not abandon the prayer; instead, pray as a follower. It is also recommended to consistently remember Allah Almighty, for indeed, hearts find tranquility through it.
