How Can Severe Anxiety Be Treated?

I am a 50 year old male that has fought anxiety all my life, but since they closed the public access for mental help I can t find anyone to help me. I got along fine with the klonopine and Ativan and Paxil, but everything has fallen apart and making me have thoughts I ve never had before. I want so badly to get back on my melds before I do something that ruins my life. I just can t find a dr. That wants to deal will my issues , that really compared to others not that bad. I just have to keep my mind slowed down because I don t sleep at all. Can you please help? Thank you!
