Hello
Welcome to health care magic
I can understand your situation. I appreciate your effort to seek online support.

As per your details, you are possibly having underlying anxiety/depression.
Deanxit contains flupenthixol and melitracen (can be taken once or twice a day) which is a non sedating anxiolytic agent. It can be used, however, consult a psychiatrist for detailed evaluation and management. Following treatment strategies would be helpful other than this-

1) Antidepressants like SSRIs (escitalopram, sertarline, paroxetine etc)
2) Antianxiety agents like clonazepam, lorazepam, alprazolam etc
3) Psychotherapy/ Counselling sessions
4) Relaxation techniques like yoga, meditation, deep breathing etc

Hope it helps
Good luck
Regards
