Anxiety meds

So, last year I finally stopped taking Escitalopram which was prescribed for depression. I was vaguely aware that while it helped my mood in some ways, it seemed to enhance my anxiety (anyone else had that?). Now this coronavirus is really ramping up my anxiety and I feel like I need to go back to the GP and get some help. I imagine she will suggest going back on the Escitalopram which I don't really want to do. Can anyone shed light on what the various antidepressants/anti-anxiety drugs do.
