Medication probably not the best plan, although a few whiskeys have been known to calm the nerves and make you feel as if you can do anything.
Seriously, though, get enough time on the bike with a good instructor, and it'll very quickly become second nature. There's nothing insurmountable about learning to ride (so no need to consider Option 4), it's just that there's a bit of a learning curve - and everybody learns at their own pace.
If you were slightly nervous, I'd be just getting you to do simple manoeuvres - starting, slowish riding in a straight line, stopping under control, simple circuits in the car park. (I once made my instructor sit through me doing an hour of U-Turns as I wanted to get them right). Point being - the repetition will build familiarity with the machine, and therefore confidence. Sometimes, I think, time pressures and the fact that there's a whole bunch of people to get through the sausage machine as quickly as possible means that some don't get the help they need (and have paid for).
What's a 1:1 session cost for a couple of hours? That's probably all that's needed to get things back on track.
