When is it worth showing to a doctor if I think I have anxiety?

Worry a lot about things which don’t matter to such an extent that it prevents me from working on the task at hand

Hey, just talk to your doctor and they might refer you to a counsellor for talk therapy. I was in the same boat as you during first quarter of the year and it really helped me. I wish I had done it sooner :)

I felt myself getting really irritable and having a lot of dread/worry thoughts about stuff i would not normally dwell so much on. I did a virtual appointment with my family doctor and was prescribed low dose Zoloft. Because I was treating anxiety more than depression it worked more quickly and made me less inclined to do therapy. I am so so glad I did it. I feel like my old optimism is coming back, and I'm much easier to be around now. There are some side effects so i could see myself wanting to wean off at some point when I'm more solid. But I scheduled the appointment and got a prescription the same day, and I felt noticeably better 1-2 weeks later.
