+1 on finding a Therapist and exercise. HIIT per other comments is great OR do medium intensity cardio to the point where you are tired (45-60 min @ 60% of max heart rate)...this will lower your anxiety and help you calm down and sleep. I'd also recommend learning some breathing/meditation techniques - box breathing is good. Anxiety is something you can learn to control with the right training and attention. I'd focus on these before making a major life-change. Medications are useful in the short term while you learn skills/tools. I'd stay away from benzodiazepines unless you are having panic attacks, etc. (they are hard to wean off of and can cause rebound syndrome -> make anxiety worse). You may want to explore high-quality broad-spectrum CBD oil supplementation. There is a lot of info available on reddit, etc.
