What country are you in?  I know your anxiety is very hard to deal with, believe me I know, but you have some magical thinking going on here about meds.  Sometimes they help, sometimes they don't, and they are hard to take and stop taking.  That's why usually you get started with therapy to see if first they can't get you to desensitize yourself to thinking everything is going to fall apart if you feel anxious.  If you need meds, they're there, but you're feeding it by the way you're thinking.  If you need the meds, you need them, but don't ever stop trying to solve the problem.  Good luck.
