Low dose meds calmed me enough to have courage and retrain my brain to tackle my fears. I’m on the lowest dose and don’t plan on doing so forever.

True.. some medication may works but most of meds not works and it will make your anxiety more worse...you just need to accept that your have an anxiety and you cant fight with it but you can control or manage it😊

Different for all I suppose. After 9 months of fighting to function and take care of 3 kids, a farm and work I had to do something. I tried everything in power to refrain from meds and I just couldn’t do it anymore. I hope you can.

I have some low dose diazapam that i only use when i really really need it. Its helped me so much. Most days i dont use it at all, but it got me through my worse days while i was learning to cope with my panic/anxiety.

Not fair to say we are stooping to any level, were doing what we have to do x
