What Medication Should I Get
Posted: 07-18-06 20:06pm

I have had xanax for my anxiety for a year or so. I don't take it all the time. The reason I want to get onto differant medication or something extra is because with xanax I only take them when an attack starts or when I begin to feel anxious. I want something to take so that the anxiety doesnt start at all.

Any suggestions? Please

What Medication
Posted: 07-25-06 15:12pm

Is it possible to get to the root cause of your anxiety and deal with those issues rather than take additional medication?

I know that probably sounds alot easier than it is in reality but it must be the better long term solution??

Kind regards,

rob

Hey there! I used to take prozac everyday besides xanax....But it made me so sleepy all the time, and I didn't notice any positive effects of it on my anxiety....Now my doctor has me on buspar...And I love it! No tiredness, no nausea, and no worrying if it's working...I definitely notice a difference!

Buspar is a bit different than the ssri's alot of people are on....And that was probably just what worked for me...But I would ask your doctor about it. Everyone is different....But I would hope it would work for you as well as it has worked for me! I jsut got back from a weekend in chicago....I could have never done that before going on buspar!

Hey I know its easy for me to say this - but shouldn't the key be to try to quit all drugs. You simply can't continue to make medication over a long term period.

Regards

Agree. I am so trying to get off my xanax. I am starting qualified counselling in a week or so.

I am on medications for depression and anxiety, my doctor has me taking zoloft for depression and wellbutrine for both depression and anxiety. My family says they notice a difference in my behavior and such but I take the pills every night and continue to see a therapist. Im not going to lie, I do still have anxiety attacks but they are easy to handle and go away when I just have someone with me. Your not alone!
I hope you find a cure <3

I too am learning to get through them. The thing that I have to remember is that when they do pop up after months without anything.... They are just there to remind me of how I used to be. I got through them before and I will get through them again, they can't hurt me
