No one can really recommend a medication without knowing your medical history. I take fluoxetine and abilify and they seem to help, but it's different for each person. Good luck in finding the one that's right for you :)

We cannot recommend medications, your GP or Therapist will make those choices.

You need to understand it will take about five weeks before you will possibly begin to have some positive outlook. You will need to be patient and allow the medications time to work. If this does not happen and you keep changing medications, the list of drugs that will be suitable become less and less. Asking to other medications to soon will also cause you other concerns, you may come off the drug that works well and miss out on relief from that medication.

Not going to lie to you but you will find that their is loads of meds out their and finding the right one that suits you well will be some what hard as you have to be on them a few weeks before hand before you notice anything their is Mirtazapine that is 45 mg max dose side effects sleeping for a month and by this I mean always tired and Sertraline max dose I would say 150mg been awake for a month by this I mean a max of four hours sleep a day hope you find the right pills for your anxiety

I've been put on and taken off so many meds I can't keep track anymore. I have ptsd anxiety and depression.

Each Med change comes with its own issues.

The biggest problem for me, already mentioned here, is lack of sleep. We've tried everything and nothing works. I've learned to function on 4 hours sleep. This week has been brutal.

The md will figure out the best place to start. Then they take it from there depending on how you are doing symptomatically.
