If you go to your provider about anxiety they would probably give you a little survey asking you about your anxiety and how often you experience anxiety. Then they will prescribe you on a low dose of an anxiety medicine. If you go on anxiety meds it will probably take a month for your body to adjust, then you can increase your dose as needed. A lot of people have anxiety disorders and take medicine for it so it’s something your doctor would’ve used to. No stigma in asking for help!
