Try different ones. It took me three doctors until I finally found one who decided to give me an ADHD and bipolar drug instead of an antidepressant, and it worked (well, mostly. Works well enough that I can enjoy my hobbies again, and that’s something).
So did the stuff I was originally on but it helped with nothing else.
Personally I’ve tried 3-4 different antidepressants and anxiety relief was a common effect (except Bupropion/Welbutrin, which made anxiety worse). So I wouldn’t stress it too much. Don’t be afraid to switch drugs and/or doctors if anxiety is the holdup.
Try antidepressants.
Sadly I already do.

Ok interesting. It might be the same case for me, I will look into that. Though I have to say, that the current one helps me with overall anxiety.
