Hello dear,my name is dr,Dorina Gurabardhi.I understand your concern.
Antidepressants,antihistamines, beta-blockers, and anticonvulsants all have demonstrated efficacy in controlling anxiety.
Some advices that I can give to you are:

-Get enough rest.
-Practice healthy thinking and stop negative thoughts.
-Avoid alcohol, caffeine, chocolate, and nicotine.
