Dear
Welcome to HCM
We understand your concerns

I went through your details. I suggest you not to worry much. You are going through a period of disappointment and dissatisfaction. The series of events points to that. Going through the process of divorce definitely is a anxiety provoking circumstance. But, just for this purpose, why you want to take medicines to cure anxiety. That anxiety process is over. Only thing you have to understand is that due to anxiety you are never going to have heart attack or any other physical problems. Try to calm down. Exercise, breath well and have sufficient water.

If you really want to have medicines, please visit a psychiatrist. Psychiatrist should assess you well before prescribing medication. You cannot be properly diagnosed online with the given symptoms. Self medication and diagnosis can be dangerous.

If you require more of my help in this aspect,Please post a direct question to me in this website. Make sure that you include every minute details possible. I shall prescribe some psychotherapy techniques which should help you cure your condition further.

Hope this answers your query. Available for further clarifications.
Good luck.
