Suggest Over-the-counter Medicines For Treating Extreme Anxiety And Depression
My son is 40 years old and normally a very grounded person. Within the last 24 hours he has shown extreme anxiety and depression due to a very stressful situation. He states he feels like he is crawling out of his skin and cannot be still. We went to Wal Mart last night because it was a 24 hr store and we would walk around. If there an OTC medication that would help him over this situation?
