A.

Medication alone is, according to recent research, not the most effective treatment plan. The preferred plan now is to use medication, as needed, and combine this with cognitive therapy. The therapy will enable you to learn more effective ways to deal with stress in any life situation.

I would suggest that you may wish to get a referral for a licensed, cognitive psychologist with whom you can work on this.
