If you are suffering from panic and depression there are medications and counseling taught coping skills that shoud be able to help you.

I'm sorry your doctor didn't pay more attention although I have to say often GPs aren't comfortable with psych issues and frankly some of the prescribing I have seen from them would make one wish they referred the patient to a psychiatrist or NP and didn't bother trying to write the script.

You definitely have stressors but feeling sad and anxious for a majority of the time is a red flag imo and I'd rather see you get help now to avoid the chance that things will get worse. Please keep us posted.
