Trying ssris for anxiety,,, anybody have some support, tips......having major anxiety
Hello there, please be as specific as possible about the ssri you have started.
In general they are the first choice for different kind of anxiety issues, most of them are relatively safe, with some minor side effects. But you have to take them with gradually increasing amount and give them at least 1 month to take effect.
Notice this that you MAY experience some anxiety at first but it will pass with time.
I think maybe she's moving too fast with med changes and adding the seroquel, don't know much about it..... would like to back off both meds ...... need a benzo of some kind for anxiety which is severe.....really scared I guess
Thinking a different doc but that's so hard to find the right fit for yourself.
I see. Prescribing Seroquel for an anxiety disorder is rather odd.
But I'm not here to judge, at all nor do I intend to do.
I think your decision to see another physician is a right move.
About benzos, yes they do help with your anxiety attacks, but try to avoid zanax (alprazolam) if you are not having panic attacks.
I am only taking clonezapam, up to .75 twice a day, have been trying to keep it to .5 twice...... doesn't help much and for too long. .... probably need more but I'm afraid to take too much😞
