I don't know if reacting to current events to offer medical advice is the best way to go. SSRIs were of great help to me when I was in the throes of my anxiety disorder, but psychadelics had given me harrowingly bad trips before I started a meditation practice (the mental fortitude has really helped.) One particular trip made me feel like I just came back from hell and I didn't feel "back" for days afterward. Mental health is tough and nobody seems to have the answers. As with everything, following the beaten path will lead you to surfaces well-trodden, and answers at this point in time are more personal than known science.
