Diazepam for anxiety?

I suffer with anxiety. I can't relax or stop worrying. Life is very hard right now and I'm struggling. I also have emetaphobia and suffer extreme anxiety if someone in the office feels sick or is off ill.

My gp has prescribed sertraline but I'm scared to take it, as a common side effect is nausea and vomiting. Would it be unreasonable to go back to my gp and ask for diazepam for my anxiety? How likely is it that she will give me a prescription? Will it help?
