Need Medicine For Anxiety
Hi... My name is James Johnston. I am disabled man living in Selma, CA. My daughter lives in IOWA, and has Leukemia. This is her second fight with the same disease and per prognosis is not good at all :(::: I will be making a trip to IOWA next week. I am a disabled man 46 years old, but am able to fly. My daughter needs me there. I am suffering with severe anxiety. She needs me there again with her. Please help.
I need to re-assure her and stay, for an unknown period of time approx. 1 to 4 months. I am preparing to leave as soon as possible. As her bone marrow transplant is next week. The anxiety is overwhelming and interferes with even the simplest tasks... My pharmacy is Right Aid.

Hi
Thanks for using healthcare magic
In anxiety disorder, you need either antidepressant or low dose benzodiazepine. Antidepressant would take time to show response. In that case, better to start with low dose benzodiazepine. These drugs are not available over the counter, so better to consult a psychiatrist or physician for that. In case, you need further help, you can ask.
Thanks
