Suggest Remedy For Stress

I'm super stressed, can't focus, always late and I set an appointment with what I thought was a psychiatrist who turned out to be a psychologist. I've had tons of therapy and I'm pretty sure I need medication. I called to set an appointment through my insurance provider and it will be end of November! Other Dr.s charge $300. Help

Dear
Welcome to HCM
We understand your concerns

I went through your details. Stress is simply a reaction to a stimulus that disturbs our physical or mental equilibrium. In other words, it's an omnipresent part of life. A stressful event can trigger the “fight-or-flight” response, causing hormones such as adrenaline and cortisol to surge through the body. A little bit of stress, known as “acute stress,” can be exciting—it keeps us active and alert. But long-term, or “chronic stress,” can have detrimental effects on health. You may not be able to control the stressors in your world, but you can alter your reaction to them. Physical exercise, creative activities, deep breathing, being away from the situation for sometime etc can help you tackle the stress.

If you want to get a medicine prescribed by a doctor online, you need to provide all those symptoms with which we should be able to diagnose you have stress disorder. Your problems could be something else, which only us, trained psychologist / psychiatrist can diagnose. Please provide more details and whole symptoms.
