Anxiety anyone???

I have the worst anxiety. Sometimes so bad I don;t leave the house because I am scared something may happen. I have tried counceling, breathing techniques, and relaxation, and all of them work but very temporarilly. I tried one of my brother's anxiety pills at a family get together as some of my anxiety is social, and I felt so much better for hours. I ended up having a wonderful time and now I think I need to get on some meds for me. What meds would work the best as I want my life to stay balanced for my family all around. Any advice?
