Should I get on medication?

Skylar

I have crippling anxiety to the point where I have to leave class or work sometimes because of its intensity. I smoke weed to calm myself down, but that obviously has other effects besides being calm and it’s expensive/not covered by my insurance.

I have a therapy appointment soon to discuss my anxiety. If I’m not offered, should I ask to be put on medication? I feel like I can’t even function daily.
