New to group. Getting back on medication for anxiety.

3 Replies

New to this group. Hoping I can find support for people with similar challenges I've been facing with dealing with anxiety. Mine has spiked the last few months. Thinking I may have to take medication again and I'm scared about it.

Hiya Jewels! Hey, there's nothing wrong with going back on meds. You may not need to stay on them forever. Just to help get you back to an even keel. There are worse alternatives, you know. Your health is very important and you have to do what you can to make sure it's in a good place. And don't be scared. You're not alone in this fight! If you need to vent, shout, need a shoulder to cry on or just plain talk, we're all here for ya!

Just remember, it's not how many times you get knocked down.....it's how many more times you can get back up and fight!

A friend if you need one :)

Changes in management at my current job, struggles with a current friendship where I'm trying to meet their expectations. Just to name a few. I haven't taken anxiety meds for three years now. My therapist may not see me if I'm on anything.

I have been taking a low-dose benzodiazepine med for a very long time. I find these extremely helpful and can make a big difference in your life I hope that you will be able to do that if you feel like you should. Best of luck to you
