I'm having a panic attack over all the books I need to read,

I can't offer you any advice, though what I can offer you is a sympathetic bump since I am in the exact same boat.

Don't plan too far ahead, and if you have to, just keep it vague.
Be ready for something to go wrong and to understand that it's part of being human.
If something isn't that urgent, leave it for another time. If it all really is that overwhelming, it'd be okay to just barely get by for a while.
Find things you like to do and make time to do them. Listen to calm music, lo-fi is a good start.
Imagine to yourself that you can always just become a nomad, just living out of a backpack and living life with every footstep.
Feel like it all seems like too much effort for too little? Get someone who's in the same situation as you.
You've got all the time in the world and no one has the right to rush you.

If you feel you have too much to do just start at the beginning and do as much as you can. Freaking about it won't help get shit done.

You sound like the sort of person who suffers from anxiety triggered by some ADHD. Listen, its completely natural to have thoughts like this, it sounds like to me you just need to organise yourself a bit more and, bear with me, relax. Set yourself a list(a journal can work really well) and see at first if you can get 2 things done in a day, if you up for it, try progressing to 3 things the next day.

You have to remember that everyone is raised differently and experiences moments of confusion and sometimes crippling anxiety. People just choose different ways to go about dealing with it.

If you really feel like this is an extreme case of anxiety, consider seeing a professional. Your post gives me the sense that you are in university/college? Find your student resource center and look for some counselling sessions or mental health advice.

Remember, you're not alone in this, these are incredibly common problems especially for people in their early/later 20s, take a step back and reevaluate your surroundings, I'm sure you'll find its all not that terrible. Best of luck.

I'm on a really long waiting list for mental health services

I wish adult ADHD was something you could get a diagnosis for in this country.
