Hi
Consult a psychiatrist and explain about your fathers condition. I understand you are worried about your father and it must be tough for you to see him feeling extremely anxious. I suggest you consult a psychiatrist and explain about your fathers condition. A psychiatrist will guide you with regard to medication. Your father will require therapy sessions as well
I suggest you consult a psychiatrist first and then consult a psychologist.
Next Steps
Consult a psychiatrist and psychologist.

Here are some strategies that may help. Here are a few ideas:
Practice relaxation techniques: Deep breathing exercises, progressive muscle relaxation, and guided imagery are all effective ways to calm your mind and reduce physical tension.
Exercise regularly: Exercise is a great way to relieve stress and anxiety. Even a short walk or yoga session can help you feel better.
Prioritize self-care: Make sure you're taking care of yourself by getting enough sleep, eating a healthy diet, and engaging in activities you enjoy.
Challenge negative thoughts: When you notice negative thoughts creeping in, try to challenge them by asking yourself if they're really true. Often, our worries are based on unfounded assumptions.
Identify triggers: Try to identify the things that trigger your stress and anxiety, and develop strategies to avoid or manage them. This might involve setting boundaries, practicing assertiveness, or changing your environment.
Seek support: Seeking support from a mental health professional.
Remember that everyone experiences stress and anxiety from time to time, and it's okay to ask for help when you need it.

Hey, first take him to a physician to rule out any other form of health condition. In that if nothing comes out then you could try taking him to a psychiatrist for anxiety medicine.
