I worry about chemistry differences. I think because this one girl tried recommending me to go on something that I had already taken once and it made me feel bad. But she swore by it.

I think it would depend on you as a person rather than just your gender. I don't know about anxiety meds specifically, but anti-depressants would be similar I'm assuming, and that's how it seems to be with them - what works well for one person, doesn't for another. Doctors will prescribe one and monitor how you go, and change if necessary.

This is a better question for a doctor or pharmacist, but I've suffered with anxiety problems for a long time and have a male friend who suffers also. When we've compared notes, there hasn't been an appreciable difference in what we could and couldn't tolerate. (For example: neither of us could tolerate Celexa.)
Lots of the SSRI drugs in particular make people feel really bad. I think that's more an issue of individual body chemistry and proper dosage for weight, etc. than it is of gender.
Good luck.
