How to get the GP to take me seriously regarding anxiety?

Hi,
First time poster so please be kind. Needing some advice and don't know where else to turn.
For years (10+), I have experienced symptoms of anxiety and recently have been experiencing anxiety/panic attacks. A few years ago I went to the GP wanting support and was given apps and breathing exercises. I felt like I was a hindrance for taking GP time because of feeling anxious among other things as there was no "physical" illness. Since then my symptoms have got worse and I want to go back to the GP to hopefully get some medication to try and help this but I don't know what to expect which isn't helping.
Any advice?
