Hello, maybe I can find some help here. I can't get rid of daily anxiety, other than antidepressants(ssri) ???
I've been on cipralex for a while and I don't want to go back on it, due to many side effects. Although I take my thyroid medication I still have anxiety and visual disturbance. My doctor suggested I start taking again Cipralex. I have two moments in day when it intensifies, at 11,30am and 6pm. I thought of trying natural products. What can I do?

Hi Hipolion,I am sorry that you are feeling so much anxiety. Do you have a therapist? Has your doctor tried any non medicated ways to help you with anxiety?
There are lots of ways you can try to calm your anxiety without medication. I currently just finished my medication and am relying on CBT and mindfulness to help me get through my panic attacks.
Do some research on those methods and try to put them into practice. The trick is to catch your anxiety the minute it happens. The faster you start applying what you learn, the shorter the anxiety will last. That way you can almost stop it before it starts!
