If you're really scared about living in the area, then you really need to make arrangments to move out.
The anxiety feelings cant be good for you and your baby. I think you need to speak to your boyfriend and try and organise something.
I personally wouldn't stay somewhere I dont feel comfortable and can't sleep/chill in. It will sure drive me nuts.
Take care

You might also find this Mind booklet on how to stop worrying useful.
Overall, though, if these worries persist you really should go and chat to your GP who will be able to give you some more detailed advice.
Hope you're feeling better soon x
