I need to take anxiety medication for my anxiety. don't want risk of alzheimer's or cancer or stroke risks. please help!

What medication?: The usual medication for anxiety is not known to be a risk factor for the disorders you listed. Counter-intuitive as it may seem, exercise may help. Start with low intensity exercise such as walking and gradually increase the intensity as tolerated.
