Hi
Thanks for using healthcare magic

I think, you have generalized anxiety disorder. In that case, you have to take medication for longer time. If you want to quit it, you can try some relaxation exercise like JPMR or deep breathing exercise. You can also try benzodiazepine on sos basis. In case, you need further help, you can ask.

Thanks
