Stop watching the news. I get it. The world is ending. I don’t want to think about it. I don’t want to watch it. I check for updates on worldly events through Twitter sometimes, but I never sit down to “watch the news”. I don’t think too much about the world’s problems because I haven’t mastered my own yet. Meditation. I meditate almost every day. It’s just good to decompress. It’s good to sit and think every once and a while because eventually, you run out of things to think about. When you do that, you actually start meditating. 10–30 minutes per day, every day possible. Start cutting out people that suck. I’ve alienated so many people in the past year. So many people. My inner circle is smaller, but also it’s stronger than it’s ever been. I have people in my life who actually look out for me. I have friends that love me. These people have helped me realize that I should never settle for less. Intense physical exercise. “Being active” is great for my physical health, but it doesn't actually make my anxiety go away. However, going to the gym and pushing myself as hard as I can (while not breaking my body) makes me completely free from anxiety—at least for a while. Reading. None of these “remedies” are secrets. There are no secrets here. If there was a magical remedy that got rid of anxiety and had no negative consequences, everyone would do it. Reading made me realize that I’m not alone in having anxiety. Studying other people’s thoughts makes me realize that my thoughts are not as weird as I thought. Doing scary shit. I’m not saying that you should start jumping out of airplanes, but seriously, stop holding back in your life because you have anxiety. Anxiety compounds over time. The longer you think about stuff, the scarier it gets. Sometimes, you just have to jump off the deep and end and see if you can swim. Talking to your friends. People have “friends”, but most of their friends don’t really know them. One of my friends and I sit in the sauna 3 days a week after Jiu-Jitsu training and talk about life. We’ve shared some pretty personal stuff during those talks. Frequent, unfiltered conversations will change your life. Writing. The main reason that I write so damn much is that writing makes my brain feel physically lighter. The act of putting my words onto a page helps me stop having to think so much. I publish them because sometimes they help people. However, private journaling can have the same mental benefits for people struggling with depression/anxiety. Eating healthier. When you eat like shit, you feel like shit. When you eat better, you feel better. While there is certainly more to taking care of your mental health than eating vegetables, eating better does help. I only drink alcohol a couple of times per year and I try to limit caffeine intake after my morning cup of coffee. I don’t smoke or do drugs. If you read my answer on derealization, you know why. Sleeping enough. Most people do not sleep enough. I don’t understand it. When I sleep less than 7 hours per night for more than a few days, I feel like I’m on a slippery slope to burnout, depression, anxiety, and losing my bloody mind. All these other remedies are great, but if you don’t sleep, you’re fighting a losing battle. Giving my all in everything I do. This seems like a cop-out, but how many people do you know who actually give their all? Putting everything I have into everything I deem worthy of my effort makes me feel like I have fewer regrets. It also makes me less anxious about outcomes, because I know I have done everything I can to influence said outcomes.

There is no single vitamin or mineral deficiency which can cause severe anxiety or depression, I would rather suggest you take prescribed medications properly and also take multivitamin and not go for further tests as of now.
