Unfortunately, I am not aware of any things over the counter that would help anxiety. You might want to do some research online to get other ideas. Also, in my experience, it is best to make sure that you know what situations are causing your anxiety.
I am not aware of any over-the-counter preparation that is significantly effective for anxiety.
Ashwaganda, Valerian or Chamomile
I recommend CBD oil. Also, meditation, exercise, limit caffeine and sugar intake, and try good psychotherapy based on DBT or therapeutic coaching. You should always have your anxiety evaluated by a medical professional first, though, to ensure it is not the result of a medical problem.
Good luck!!
