TSH needs checked: I am sure they have a reason for that, especially if you have had a physical in the last few months hpoefully basic labs and thyroid function tests would have been done.

Are they MD's?: Were the doctors you saw doctors specializing in psychology or medical doctors? Psychologists generally cannot prescribe medications. To rule out medical causes of anxiety symptoms, such as thyroid problems, anemia, etc. Blood tests would be needed. Go to your general doctor to get the appropriate labs done, along with a physical.
