I always have anxiety, whenever I want to do something I get stressed and start overthinking the worst scenarios possible.
Let's say I want to do something important next week, from week before I start feeling anxious.
Tried many multi vitamins, omega 3, St. John's wort, B12, D3 and Saffron extract but no luck.
I do exercise and meditate everyday.

Any advice?! I'm thinking maybe SSRI might help, but is there any healthier alternative?!

Definitely not SSRIs, which don't actually treat anxiety that well. There are some other anxiety medications if you want to go that route. Since you seem invested in changing this, try Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, they focus on getting you to break those spirals where you get more and more anxious and catastrophize

Thanks for the advice.

Is it really anxiety? Don't self-diagnose.

What else could it be?!

What's your body type? If you're skinny, try eating as much as you can, not just exercising. Especially protein, do things that build your muscles too.
I lowered my anxiety by a lot this way.

What's fucked is that i still can't be a functioning member of society even without the anxiety. I still have problema with authority and come off as aloof.

It's not your fault.
Society is fucked.

It is never only one thing that will make you feel better. I would say there are some things that are a good base: enough sleep and exercise. Thst helped me a lot. I would say sleep is the most important. After that that what i havr been doing to writting down my bad thoughts and then ask myself what my best friend would say. I know it sound cheesy and it takes a little bit of time but you will start to become a lot kinder to yourself
