Treating anxiety often involves a combination of therapy and sometimes medication, depending on the severity. Cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) is a common approach, teaching coping skills and strategies to manage anxiety. Small things like leaving the room or going outside can be effective. Always consult with a qualified healthcare professional for personalized advice.

That is an answer best addressed with your doctor. Never stop medications without proper consultation from a professional. It may be helpful to begin decreasing the dosage first to determine if you are able to manage anxiety using other methods.
