Anxiety and panic issues. Suggest.

My mother is facing anxiety and panic issues. She becomes restless sometimes and questions everything. She's aware whats she's thinking and becomes panic why she's doing this,why it's happening to me. She also knows in few seconds she thinks so much of thoughts and after sometime shes relaxes. Its shows on her body too. she keep sweating.Her hand gestures changes, standing poster changes, face expressions changes and keeps on asking us what to do several times. We explain her with love and clamly but she doesn't listen and carry on her questions. I try to explain her some remedies like taking deep, staying busy, walking but that doesn't help much. She doesn't come to firm decision. Our doctor told to start medicines for mental health but I am not sure about that. She has sugar and diabetes on border line. Please suggest.
