Will anti depressants and anti psychotic really help you with anxiety?

[tinkerbel19]

I've been taking my meds for a couple of months now but my anxiety always comes back. Sometimes I wonder if it really does help or not?

I'm on these meds also.

It doesn't take it all away. I still have times I get anxious.

But it's a lot less than I used to.

I will say when my anti psychotic dose was higher I had more anxiety. Now that it's been lowered it's lessened.

maybe this is because of my anti psychotic pill but it helps me sleep. what is your dosage?

[Dolphin14 in reply to tinkerbel19]

I'm on 1 mg abilify

At two mg I was have more anxiety

Mine was not helping me sleep at all. Made sleep very difficult right from the start.

[tinkerbel19 in reply to Dolphin14]

i'm on 25 mg of anti paychotic.

Which one?

I was in a different one for awhile and gained almost 20 pounds. Wasn't going to deal with that any more
