Yes there are , you might want to discuss this with your doctor.
There are also herbal remedies that don't require a doctor's visit.
My friend has great success with using lavender oil. She puts a little on a hankie and when she feels a stress or anxiety episode coming on simply holds it up to her nose and takes 10 slow deep breaths.
there is also herbal teas out there made from chamomile, and St. Johns Wart that are effective in helping to keep you calm.
I have also heard of using vitamin B supplements to relieve stress.
my suggestion would be try the herbal or homeopathic remedies first , if they are not working for you go and talk to your doctor.

Yes, there are some drugs in a class called anxiolytics. Your doctor can tell you more about the appropriateness of them for your particular situation.

Prozac, Paxil, Wellbutrin etc. they all help, it just depends on the doctor, from which pharmaceutical company he gets some kick backs and maybe freebies.
