I completely relate to everything your saying!

I have been meditating , yoga., practicing mindfulness and how to control my breathing . It' really helps me stop things getting out of control.

Just keep believing that you won't feel like this forever . Cognitive behavioural therapy also worth a look at! Get to the thing that is causing the anxiety once you know you can use medication to control symptoms while you work through the real cause

My psychiatrist just prescribed it to me last week. I am now taking it in addition to Latuda and Trintellix. I haven't been able to tell a noticeable difference yet, but I'm hoping that I will soon.

She prescribed it because I was having a lot of anxiety about adjusting to working full time. Currently I take it 3 times a day (at 9, 1, and 5). I hope that over time it will begin to show some benefits. How long did you take it before you saw improvement?
