As someone who suffers with extreme severe anxiety I can totally relate to her. I would stop eating for days at a time as a punishment. I worry a lot about my life, everyone around me and pleasing everyone. It's absolutely crippling, so glad she got the help she needed, lovely young lady it's so sad that society has 1 in 3 people suffering mental health issues. I hope everyone seeks help
Can you help with the reliable source I would really appreciate it. Many people talk about how mushrooms and psychedelics treats anxiety, but nobody talks about where to get them. Very hard to get a reliable source here in Australia. Really need!
Yes, doctor Greg mushroom I have the same experience with anxiety, depression, PTSD and addiction and Mushrooms definitely made a huge huge difference to why am clean today.
I was reading a book about hormones. Hormones can have such a huge effect on the anxiety profile it’s quite incredible! The book called the ageless man. These guys who were suffering from depression, anxiety, diabetes, all were treated by simply putting the testosterone back into the normal range. I had my hormones checked and they were all over the place. As soon as my doctor balanced them, I felt fine. I felt how I did when I was 14 again, not having a care in the world and happy! My thoughts go out to everyone who is suffering! You’re all not alone!
Yes exactly..and b12,,magnesium, vitamin d...also the thyroid being under active too...and I had all 3 issues,low b12.and d,and my thyroid levels low...no antidepressant were helping me,so my doc did complete bloodwork and that's what he found. b12,and thyroid plays a big roll in depression and anxiety.
Well then that's my biggest problem is my hormones are bothering me alot n the gentleman that I've been talking to that I'm interested in is not around me
@@shannonweaver196 this guy from india replied to a comment on here about what I been experiencing,and I heard this before, gut health...has alot to do with anxiety depression hormones , juicing greens and fruits,eating fish,just a clean diet,affects our mind. That it starts in the gut. I can say soda,junk food,fast foods,sugar,always made me feel like crap,no energy,irritated,depression, so I started blending my greens and fruit,drinking protien drinks,water,baked my chicken,for salads.watching things that are processed and full of additives, it has really made a difference in 2 weeks. Feeling awake,not tossing turning at night.i also take magnesium at nite wich is good for anxiety and nervous system,also b12 and vitamin d during the day.along with a women over 50 vitamin. "Nature's Way"brand Alive" has the fruit and garden blend in it. I'm just tired of being tired.so trying this for a few months to see..
@J-UK21 what kind of doctor should i go to, to get my hormones checked and whats he test called. Im having trouble sleeping, and my heartrate is sometimes high. I think i need to sort my hormones.
My anxiety has caused me to have agoraphobia and depression. My quality of life is at the lowest it's ever been. It's tragic when you wish to have a normal life, but at the same time are looking for ways to completely escape life. At what point does my fear of death become less than my fear of life?
I had this too.took 17years tranqulize not anymore. r Try Vitamin D...B12 and B complex and Magnesium. Since i take those anxiety is gone. But buy Good Quality...GREETINGS from Germany. B12 at least 1000mcg per day , you can take much more dayli. B komplex sie One capsule. A day... Magnesium 400mg per day. Vitamin D Not to low. I. E. GREETINGS FROM GERMANY...
You hit the nail on the head Tommy. Who cares if you're addicted. You're happy and these other fools preaching the all natural way are miserable. God bless.
I have been depressed for a long time, but after taking shrooms few months ago, l feel much happier and highly motivated and my ADHD gone , lost a ton of anxiousness and had a few epiphanies about how I should live my life. I decided to buy an ounce for backup, but haven’t yet felt the need to take any more since then.
Have they tried you on a nightly dose of Guanfacine or Clonidine yet? They specifically target the "fight or flight" response by reducing the amount of norepinephrine in circulation. These are gaining popularity in treating anxiety and PTSD, since they have fewer side effects and don't have the same risks of addiction or dependence as typical anxiety medications. They can also address insomnia and prevent migraines. Although they're FDA-approved to treat ADHD and to manage blood pressure, the smaller doses they use in treating anxiety won't lower blood pressure that much.
I got mine from bad trip on weeeeed . I have weird eye symptoms though which is causing my anxiety mostly . Might be dialated pupils, not sure, seeing a psychiatrist in 2 weeks and I am gonna start medication, I am tired of this
I have PTSD/anxiety from the sudden loss of my Son. My heart got way out of whack on benzo's. My saving grace is 25 mg hydroxyzine as needed. It works wonderful for me. I know I can take it if I am going to be in a situation that will set me off. It did make me sleepy at first, but not now. I also keep my mind busy with adult coloring, painting and reading. It helps me. I hope this will help someone else.
I took hydroxyzine for situational anxiety some years back, at a standard 25mg dose. It would absolutely knock me out in less than half an hour. Downside was I was always asleep. Upside? I guess technically it stopped my anxiety since I was always asleep. My doctor told me to stop taking it immediately, however, since the effects shouldn't be that strong.
i've been on them for 15 yrs myself, but i am in a special scenario where i am in permanent head pain, i was having visual aura migraines every single day for years. so i am trying to justify other sedative medications like promoethazyne and/or codiene.
I think one of the worst parts about anxiety is that it prevents people from actually seeking treatment, be it fear of the actual social interaction, or the fear that your doctor will think you're just trying to get drugs, especially if you've done some research on your own time and bring up a specific medication, most notably benzodiazepines. On top of that, reading about side effects and experiences from other people online doesn't help either. When it comes to the side effects though, it's worth noting that many people are taking these medications and aren't having any significant problems. A lot of people sharing their experiences in online forums in most cases are going to be the most vocal minority who experienced negative side effects, so always pay close attention to the positives, because it has to have really made a difference if it drives them to go online and talk about it.
I always recommend psychedelics to people battling with depression and anxiety it’s the best to work with , you don’t have to take it for years I won mine with the aid of psychedelic mushroom and it’s the best experience I’ve had , it gave me the confidence and courage to face my truth and it works magic, I get mine from and online vendor that specializes in the growth and sales of psychedelic products like DMT, LSD, MDMA, DXM it’s a great experience
Been suffering from anxiety for over 30 years, Been on so many anti- depressants I can't remember all of them..They don't work never have worked and will never work it only makes things worse I don't care what this Doctor says..Life experience and living years with a debilitating illness is hard and stressful..Im on no meds now and haven't been for years since they took me off my Benzos now I never leave my house I hope Doctors like this are happy with the non- life we have when they think they know what works better than the people that actually suffer from life altering anxiety
We need to get together and make doctors listen to us! It's a hell I wouldn't wish on my worst enemy! I'm on benzos all day long I dont abuse them I take them as prescribed! Not everyone is a drug addict! With all the other meds u talked about and some days it barely takes the edge off! I've found some doctors dont want to be bothered with people that have anxiety. They want to sweep it under the rug as if it's not a serious problem!
i too suffer from chronic anxiety. runs in family. i take xanax as PRESCRIBED and find it to be most effective. tried prozac x 8 months, didn't help and was brutal titrating off. it is unfortunate that xanax is abused as this makes me feel as if i am being 'scrutinized'! (in addition to xanax i practice meditation, exercise and breathing techniques which helps). nothing worse than panic attack!
@@lyndapierson6338 my heart goes out to you! Xanax had a paradoxical effect on me. It seems to help women more than men. The GAD and the panic attacks and the other body systems are truly a hell!
I'm totally with you. Doctors nowadays don't want to prescribe benzodiazepines but it's the only thing that helps. I've always took them as prescribed but they still won't give them to me. Idk what to do anymore.

For a relaxed life sit on a chair, back erect, hands on lap with palms upwards, eyes closed, be still and observe your natural incoming--outgoing breath at the entrance of the nostrils for around 10-15 minutes or more.

Fr I have a mee that I have to take for period cramps and my doctor barely gives them to me because she doesn’t want me to get addicted to it like when did I make you think I was
Mine will, too. My major source of anxiety is driving and all the risks that come with it. I drive to deliver food. That is my job. My retirement will directly result in a significant relief off my literal heart.
I had reactions to benzos, SSRIs, and beta blockers. What worked best for me was a nightly dose of Clonidine, which specifically targets the "fight or flight" panic and anxiety response by reducing the amount of norepinephrine in circulation. My daughter responded even better to its sister drug, Guanfacine, and it eliminated her anxiety and panic attacks. She also went from a C student to an A student overnight!
I know clonidine is very potent drug in lowering blood pressure. Isn't it dangerous to take it before bed since blood pressure naturally drops significantly during sleep?
@@simonram8505 Not really, since it's low dose Clonidine (0.1mg or 0.2mg) before bed to treat issues such as anxiety, PTSD, insomnia, ADHD, and other issues. The mild effect on blood pressure that low dose Clonidine has helps to mimic the normal decrease in blood pressure that happens during sleep, which is why it's a popular medication to treat insomnia in children as well as adults. My blood pressure has actually increased a bit on low dose Clonidine, since it reduces blood pooling in the legs and increases the blood volume in circulation. The dosing for using Clonidine to manage high blood pressure is higher doses taken throughout the day, which is when you start to see a more noticeable effect on blood pressure.

I am 64 yo and have suffered from panic attacks and anxiety for ever. I seldom leave my condo in fact in July I drove a total of 4 miles in a brand new car that sits outside. Thank goodness my job is all done from home on the phone. It is something I have learned to live with..
I wish I could, but every time when I work myself up to telling my mom I want to go on something she says things like “well just try this” (she got me natural substance for anxiety but they don’t work) or “well you were fine the other day” (cause I don’t like when people see I’m anxious but it goes up and down all the time).
If Zanax works for you who cares if you get addicted? What are the difference in taking blood pressure meds etc daily and they don't call that addiction though you have to take every day...
Mary Irby, the problem is not only getting addicted but also that you build up a tolerance and that's really bad, eventually not even the higher doses work.
@@sararue297 15 years I've been on them since my daughter was murdered and I do just fine everybody wants to start on something new and I have tried but the sonics works best for me
Because you can measure how much blood pressure you have and then correct that but there is no way of measuring anxiety and what its doing to your body Psychiatry is a study which is based on trial and error and no bases to administer these meds. Its better to not treat anxiety if its not debilitating
I’ve been taking Xanax for 25 yrs.. it’s the ONLY med that can control my panic attacks. Frankly this med has saved my life. I have tried almost all the other meds he mentioned and even entered an experimental drug trial program. Sometimes I use it frequently.. sometimes I can go a while without taking it. Bottom line is that I need to have available, if I don’t and a panic attack hits I will be heading to the emergency room.
I was on xanax for close to 30yrs. I had been at max dose for years. The last few years they have been trying to titrate me down. The same health care system that gave me this miracle drug (that saved my life) after 30 years says nope this is no good for you, causes dementia. Sooo long story short I had a seizure due to weaning me off. Ended up in intensive care + 12 days in the hospital. I have been off xanax for 2 months now & I've never been more miserable. They adjust my new meds every month and nothing works. I wish they would have left me alone
Same here , was on xanax for 20 years only thing that worked for me never had any side affects and was able to slowly taper down when needed, my doctor retire now they keep pushing me on drugs that don't work with more side affects , take it from the people that abuse it not that need it.
I'm 70 and I almost died in 2016. I suffer from serious anxiety and claustrophobia. After a year in a hospital in Sarasota I moved back to Lee County and the health system here refused to refill my ativan prescription because of drug protocol. So now I am forced to self medication with cheap beer. It's destroyed my liver but allows me to sleep.
Ask your doctor about clonodine. It's not a narcotic. I was on xanax for over 30 years for anxiety. Clonodine has worked great for me. Also, your doctor will probably be very willing to prescribe it.
@@sl8605 im interested in clonodine, i have health anxiety and panicky episodes when out in public sometimes where my heart rate races (makes you feel lightheaded and breathless) i was wondering if this could benefit me and in what dose? My blood pressure at rest is usually around 120/68
Mindfulness, a calm environment with less caffeine & TV has been effective for me. Discontinuing anxiety medications is a very anxious experience; worse than what you think requires medication in the first place. Cannabis is a natural alternative for some folks as well. Valerian, Cava Cava & chamomile are helpful to many. Some form of centering meditation or just a few minutes alone can help to calm the mind. Writing out what one finds overwhelming is shown to be quite effective too.
I tried busporine and it actually gave me way more anxiety, nausea, and what felt like panic attacks. Hopefully I can find something that helps soon because I’m to the point of barely being able to leave my house
I have been on Clorazepate 7.5mg along with my SSRI, daily EVERY DAY for 2 years. He recommends I take even more daily but I do not. Do you agree with my psychiatrist that a benzo like this is safe on a regular basis? It’s a super long half life benzo that comes on very slow - I pretty much don’t even notice it. I have panic disorder/PTSD/generalized anxiety / DPDR
I began to develop Anxiety symptoms when in my late teens. At first, it was an extreme feeling of unease around people. I was put on 5mg Diazepam and found instant relief. I have been on and off them ever since. I am now in my mid 60's. My father was an extremely bad tempered man, who caused my and my mother a lot of stress. In the late 80's I was taken off them. But I began to gravitate towards alcohol, getting through at least 3 bottles of gin a week. My then Doctor put me back on Diazepam at only 2mg and they did take the edge off the Anxiety. My father has since passed away, and my mother is now severley invalid, and needs 24/7 care. And the Doctor who originally prescribed the pills has just retired. So, guess what? the other Doctors have put me on a reduction program, which means that I will eventually be taken off them completely. My fear is that I will return to alcohol to find some relief. I live in the UK and Benzodiazepines are frowned upon by most Doctors. I just don't know how I can go on without stress relief, as my my is very demanding, and needs to to do just about every thing for her.
Every medication they try give u instead of diazepan read the side effects of the med a go bk to Ur doc a say Ur getting them side effects,and getting cut of diazepan after so long can cause fits/seizures etc av bin on Diaz an nitrazepam since 18 am nearly 40 now av changed docs wen I got resistance in getting them even was buying them at one point,hope u get a good doc who understands cos they do help ppl cope and are more effective than all the modern alternatives.

@@chriswatt859 Problem is, here in the UK, finding a doctor that understands our condition is almost impossible. My late Father was put on 5mg Valium back in the mid 70's and found "Instant Relief" When I began to get Anxious, I took one and and also found "Instant Relief" My Father got Xanax in the early 1990's and I tried one, and Wow, so much better than Valium. I felt like I had won the lottery. I'm going through one of the toughest times in my life right now, with my Mother dead from the neck down, and my Brothers wanting me to sell up and ship out. I could really use them right now, so I'm heading back to the "One Drug" I can get that is Alcohol.
Only Benzo's work. They are addictive and thus dangerous. Even if you had a doctor who would prescribe them now, they won't do it forever. The other stuff is nonsense. Embrace your anxiety because you're just plain stuck with it. Lots of exercise helps.
I ve suffered GAD all my life..it all went away when I moved to Ecuador and left the USA..by that I mean to outline the importance of striving to live a stressfree life as much as possible, proper diet; and stopping all bad habits like alcohol..cigarettes etc..I havent had one anxiety attack since leaving stress and negative people out of my life..
I swear sometimes it’s the environment not the individual. USA culture is very toxic. Whites only hang out with whites. Blacks with blacks. Hispanics with Hispanics. As an immigrant, you don’t fit in anywhere and as a result you’re isolated and lonely which leads to depression and anxiety.
Ecuadorexpat...Omg I almost cried when I read your post. . My anxiety and stress are caused by my job. As soon as I quit the job my symptoms disappeared. My friend said it my issue was situational. My new job doesnt pay as much but I have less stress and laugh with my coworkers instead of having my back stabbed.
I am on the same medications. Lexapro is the best antidepressant that I’ve ever been prescribed and I’ve been on it for about 7 yrs. it also keeps hot flashes away 😊

I have heard that works very well and has little side effects if any at all, but does it help nausea also? I take Zofran to combat anxiety and nausea for now and just cbd oil.
One class of antidepressants that you did not mention is the MAOIs. Not used frequently, however, in my case Phenelzine Sulfate has been effective when the others were not. My doctor has me on Phenelzine, Propranolol and Clonazepam.
EXACTLY! Most young docs have never prescribed it. If they've even heard of them, they look on it as a drug of the past. Potential adverse reactions to certain aged foods worry other docs. Like aged cheese. Parnate - an MAOI - is the only med that has helped me. Thankfully my doc is older and is well aware of MAOI's.
@@redpine8665 I have to generally inform doctors of the medications that are contraindicated with Nardil. They have prescribed me such meds before and I had to educated them. As for food interactions; I've never had a reaction to anything and I eat just about everything on the "Do not eat" list.

I don’t like clonidine unless you have high blood pressure. You’ll find yourself passing out and getting dizzy did nothing for my anxiety, they also put me on gabapentin. Oh, and don’t forget you’ll be on an anti-depressant before you know it because those are off label anxiety meds too. I’m on four off label anxiety medication‘s and I still have anxiety. I did my best when I had a Ambien in a panic pill as needed. Now I’m on four medication‘s for one issue that still unresolved very disappointed, but hopefully it works for you. Be careful though read all the side effects.
It’s probably a better idea to find a better therapist that will wean you of meds and actually try to get to the root cause of your anxiety! Many doctors like to throw a pill to mask the symptoms of mental health issues, and while that may help temporarily, meds can only do so much! - fun fact: all the studies regarding SSRIs/antidepressant’s, and anti anxiety medications were only ever APPROVED for short term use as a TEMPORARY BANDAID only for EXTREME CASES of anxiety, and it’s supposed to be used ALONG with therapy. As therapy progresses, you’re supposed to be gradually weaned off the meds so you can live a more normal life. Sadly many doctors and psychiatrists want to keep you on these drugs long term despite the fact that SRRIs were never approved nor designed for long term use. They also prescribe them for even the most mild anxiety to temporarily suppress the symptoms, despite the fact that SRRIS are actually supposed to be last resort/nothing else is working! Many doctors are sadly lazy af
I used to get anxiety from thinking about taking the meds but this seems to happen when I felt better . Once went off cold turkey & will never do that again & from then on haven’t had anxious thoughts about taking it . Very apparent that I feel safe & better on it❣️
I did the same thing with my lexapro that I've been taking for 20 years now. I thought I could come off it and be ok. By the 2nd month without it, I was a complete mess!! I've had doctors want to take me off it and I begged them not to do that. The idea that a doctor might take it away from me scares me so badly.
First of all I'm 71, work out, walk everywhere, good blood pressure etc. My ENT prescribed Venlafaxine 37.5 mg for my Vestibular Migraine that came out of nowhere. He said take it for 2 weeks. I took one at 10am and by Noon my Vertigo was 80% gone. I thought cool.. 2am the next morning I woke up with a blinding headache, and I don't get headaches. But I did read on Web MD you might want to watch your Blood Pressure if you take this. So I decided to take my Blood pressure. 196/121. Yeah off to the Emergency room I went. I realize different medications can work differently in different people.. Just a Heads up.
The worst thing about anxiety is that constant feeling of impending doom. Every situation is definitely going to end up with the worst possible outcome, is the feeling I have. I tried Zoloft, but all that did was totally sap any motivation I had and sapped 100% of mu sexual desire. I just started 5mg of Buspar twice a day a couple weeks ago, but I haven't noticed any improvement yet. Keeping my fingers crossed.

I have extreme anxiety and Panic attacks...I cannot control when it happens..some days are awful, and some bearable. The problem is when I have several days or weeks of the severe ones ...for really no reason or trigger...by body does start to become addicted and it's absolutely horrible when that happens.

I suffered from terrible anxiety and panic attacks. Medication just made it worse. I found slow breathing really made a tremendous difference. There are lots of videos about it on you tube. Therapy in a nutshell is a good one. I tried every drug under the sun, but slow breathing makes your brain realise you’re not in danger and stops the cortisol and adrenaline flooding your system, which is what makes you feel so bad. I practised the breathing on the hour, every hour, for 10 minutes. Just for a few days - and the anxiety I’ve struggled with for years has gone. If I do start to feel anxious now, 10 slow breaths and it’s gone. Good luck. I hope you find some peace. My anxiety was really bad too- I ended up in A and E with it once, because I thought I was dying!
Had a mental breakdown on Wednesday, seen the mental health team (UK) and I need talk therapy, psychotherapy and very likely medication. I've struggled for years going round & round in circles. I'm at the point where I'm losing my Mrs and family through stress anger anxiety and inevitably depression. I know what I need to do in life but it's too difficult to take the first step which makes me more anxious, more stressed, more guilty and more depressed. I'll try and see if I can find one of these to help me until the MHT get things rolling for me but until then Im just falling deeper and deeper into darkness
I have been on benzos off and on since 1998, but have been on them everyday since 2014. I have PTSD/severe anxiety and panic disorder...I am taking lorazapam twice a day.
@@oxBLUNTxo Hi Corey, and no I don't mind you asking..If I can help with anything feel free to hit me up. After they tried several different ones in the benzo family, the lorazapam (Ativan), has seemed to work better for me. I used to have horrible panic attacks out of no where, and I started avoiding going in stores or being anywhere public..I bout became a recluse...I'm not like that anymore and I don't have the anxiety that I used to...However, I learned the hard way that I have to meet the medicine half way. If you know your triggers, try to eliminate any stressors that causes the triggers...I know that's hard to do..Took me a long time. But as for those that come at you from out of nowhere, I don't know what to do about them except I had to learn to talk myself down, and convince myself that I was ok, and it would pass...I always thought i was having a heart attack...but since I've been taking the lorazapam, I've done a lot better...like I said, I hardly have panic attacks anymore...I can take them up to 3 times a day on an as needed basis...I don't take them 3 times a day. I take one in the morning and one at night. And sometimes I don't take the one in the morning. Since I have insomnia like something crazy, I take it at night with my night meds to help me sleep. I hope I have been helpful...:)
@@lorirabun5938 no. It's not. I was on anti depressants and anxiolytics for 7 years. Being of benzos for such a long period of times is dangerous. It can even lead to strokes. It destroys gaba receptors which aren't regenerative. I can never recover from the damage these meds caused me, possibly. So you are wrong. My experience with thes ethings is substantial.
I don’t get it why people keep saying that Xanax or Klonopin is so bad. If you take them when you really need them and not abuse them there was nothing wrong with it. I have been on Xanax and Klonopin for years that didn’t make me go smoke crack LOL I take it if I need it. I don’t understand people that will go through a day with such anxiety because they are worried about being addicted. We all have free will I take mine mostly to sleep at night once in a while I need it in the daytime but for gods sake‘s I have a neighbor that is so messed up she has been in and out of mental hospitals for a year now. I said to her just take the Xanax even if it’s to a day you’re not being a drug addict you’re trying to help yourself, but she doesn’t listen and I can’t even be around her anymore because I suffer from depression and anxiety and sometimes you can’t help people if they don’t wanna help themselves.

I say get a doctor who is willing to try different things until you get relief. There are plenty of success stories. It depends on a number of things they can't predict. Try something with the attitude that it may take a few tries. You'll know if it's not for you pretty quickly but always give your body time to adjust.
My Drs had Mr on benzos for 40 yrs. I nearly died numerous times weaning off. I'm trying to stay alive now. How do I recover from all the damage? How do I find out what these drugs have all done to me?

Hi Dr, just wanted to share my experience with the meds you mention in video. Propanalol only helps somewhat with the physical symptoms of anxiety. Hydroxyzine is just Benadryl that makes you tired like you said. Tried Buspar with no success... Seems pretty mild. Benzos work well cause they increase gaba the calming neurotransmitter. But I know the long term consequences. I've also tried many ssris with very little success. Zoloft turned me into a depressed zombie, lexapro made my anxiety ten times worse, Prozac, paxil, made my anxiety worse, celexa wasnt doing much of anything. Also tried seroquel, which completely knocks out anxiety, but turns you into a sedated turd. Unfortunately the only thing I've had much success with is a benzo. I only take em on occasion. Not tryin to discourage anyone cause eveyone is different and what might work for some may not help others. Dont know till you try. Thanks for the vid! Just wanted to share my experience.
Aaron, There is a solution to every problem if there is a desire and determination. . For a relaxed life without anxiety sit on a chair, back and spine erect, hands on your lap with palms upwards, close your eyes and do nothing. Be still without moving and observe your breathing and body sensations for around 10-15 minutes. What is important is to be as still as possible. Plenty of thoughts will come but slowly negative thoughts will reduce or vanish slowly. The mind is reprogrammed. Do twice daily or as per your convenience. This could be life-transforming if you desire change. Best wishes. Shyaaam Sir. -Counsellor.
Thanks I will try it! I have tried some meditation and it helps some... I know I need to do it more often. My biggest problem now is I obsess about my anxiety, constantly thinking about it throughout day, it is annoying. I know I'm just supposed to accept the thoughts and move on but its tough. Think the fact that I've tried so many meds with little success has made me obsess about it more! Like I think subconsciously there is something really wrong with my brain. Some people say you have an imbalance, and others say you don't. It confusing.
Thanks for the reply! Yeah I'm trying many things.. Meditation, natural supplements and vitamins. I'm learning alot about this stuff, probably way too much! I'm learning there are many options for this, not just a anti depressant with horrible side effects. Drs are quick to tell you you have an imbalance and prescribe pills. I think its a combination of many factors. I'm learning and trying to heal. Also working with a Naturalpath Dr, she has helped me more than any psych doc has. Checking all my food sensitivities, vitamin levels, homesystein, methylation, hormones etc. I've asked genetic testing many times form my psych and he always tells me no. Gonna have to do it myself I guess. And yes I pray everyday.. Thanks n best wishes!
I feel the same way about everything you had to say, anxiety is terrible and I have had anxiety it seems like my whole life, as of lately it’s been terrible. I have started menopause in the last few months and it’s the worst debilitating feeling I have ever experienced. Good luck to you.
Thanks, hope you are well! I've been trying some 5 htp last week or so.. It does mellow me out, trying to figure out dosage, and best Times to take it. It is showing promise.
I am 68 years old and I have been suffering with panic attacks that just come on for no reason at all I have been in two car accidents because they just crept up on me I did a lot of cognitive behavioral therapy I have seen holistic chiropractors I have been on every type of organic food vitamins everything I am now currently on Klonopin I've been on it for many years and it works for me and I will continue with it until the day I die because I will never again have a panic attack especially having two to three a day for absolutely no reason whatsoever
One thing that has helped me is exercise it doesn't really matter which one as long as it's in nature. Reading also helps tremendously since then you force your brain to think about something else.
I agree. However, I find it really hard to motivate myself to go anywhere when I’m down. But when I do, it usually makes me think that I ought to do it more often. Yet, when down I can’t convince myself.
Ive been having severe anxiety for 7 yrs. N been on xanax 1mg 3X a day. N im barest getting a better...i didn't drive,work, n barley left the house for 6.5 yrs... but im getting better this yr.

The problem with ssri and snri is that the manufacturers have never done the studies or shown the clear results that clearly show how they work on the brain if they work at all. Brain scans show they clearly affect the brain but is that the result of damage, addiction or a positive result? If you can reference those studies it would be appreciated. Thank you
Propranolol has its pros and cons. Was given this for anxiety and migraines. Problem is my blood pressure runs pretty low and this medication almost bottomed me out. Not to mention, it made my headache worse. Weird.
@@genchambers38 I’ve been having constant anxiety. Especially at night. And it’s been making my blood pressure go crazy high and heart rate super fast. But the medicine makes me feel just as bad so I’m at a place where I’m tryin not to take it but it’s Rough
People in the comments saying "dont take this" "dont take that" about benzos and ssri's need to realise everybody is different! These drugs literally save peoples lives and youll find the majority who have positive effects arent in the comments section on youtube, they are enjoyng there lives anxiety free!
I have tried ssri's before and they never worked but i know lots of people it has changed there lives. The only thing that works for my anxiety is valium but my GP always reluctant to prescribe it even though I only take it a few times a month when I'm desperate.

I took meds for over 20yrs & quit taking all pharmaceuticals about 4yrs ago, I still have anxiety but now also a distrust of Dr's & big pharma, fact is the stuff didn't really help much anyways, at least now i dont have to do the whole song & dance every month, being free of the need for Drs & pharmacies is extremely satisfying
So many doctors mis prescribe the benzodiazapines... so glad you detail the proper usage of those. I'm suffering long term complications from using them a very long time. I don't wish this on anyone.
I’ve been prescribed 3 different antidepressants for my social anxiety and OCD. I would give anything to get a benzo prescription, but doctors just don’t seem to want to prescribe it to me. I don’t specifically ask them, bc that’s probably a red flag to the doctors, But I’ve told them- I don’t want something I have to take everyday with terrible side effects just in hopes that it will prevent my anxiety. I want something that will GET RID of my anxiety when I’m experiencing it. I want that “I know it’s there if I need it” feeling. Just having that would reduce my anxiety on its own. And I don’t get that with antidepressants. I know benzos can be dangerous, but to me it seems way less dangerous to only take them when you need them, instead of putting 2 different antidepressants in my body EVERY DAY that is doing who knows what to me
@@teeeff8337 You don't know what you are in for taking benzos. Take it from someone who was prescribed them for over 20 years. Yes, they work great at first but it will lead to dependance then addiction and getting off will be a living hell. You're best bet is to prevent anxiety through diet. Start eating a keto or carnivore diet and your anxiety will disappear.
Benzodiazepine is not dangerous, look at the long-term studies. They’re shoving that down peoples throats about the addiction and all that garbage part of it because people have abused alcohol and died. The people who truly needed it and don’t abuse it are denied it. I wonder how many people have taken their own lives because they can’t get that medication, it saved my life. The doctors told me I was going to be on some thing the rest of my life. I dread everything they gave me and nothing worked. It only made it worse. Xanax was the only thing that gave me life and now they want to take it away from people, shame on the medical community when medical practices is supposed to be between patient and doctor, not the government!
A quick note: be cautious taking Zoloft. It nearly killed me emotionally and physically; created panic attacks and long lasting anxiety. Would have been better off smoking CBD.
I took one zoloft pill - the lowest dose they have, and 4 hours later was in the ER with a low heart rate, and full panic attack. I'd never had either of those before. I was completely healthy otherwise but was seeking help with suddenly being a single parent with mild depression. And after 3 months I still have almost daily panic attacks. My advise to anyone starting zoloft, which is useful to many, - cut the pill and only take 1/3 for the first couple of days until you know how it affects you. Now, I've been taking otc GABA, and it's helped me better than the various stress Teas, cbd oil, ashwagandha, Chamomile, kava kava or other otc options. I'm still searching for something that will work better though. (probably a girlfriend)
Struggled with anxiety for 30+ years. It wasn't until I went to a real psychiatrist and he recommended I try a stimulant after he felt my symptoms sounded more like attention/ADHD issues than anxiety. I was very nervous trying a stimulant.. However I have found Adderall truly does lower my anxiety. It's night/day difference. I feel a lot more in control and that allows me to feel much more comfortable.
My psychiatrist prescribed Hydroxyzine "as Needed", but used to take Buspirone daily. I have yet to takethe Hydroxyzine, saving for "emergencies". I take Trileptal as a mood stabilizer for Bipolar 1. Great information, Thank you
I only get anxiety bad at work when I'm running my machine and something goes wrong with it, I take propranolol to help me with panic attacks, I take 3 10mg tablets during a 12hr shift it gets me through.

After taking Wellbutrin for 14 years, I realized it has been causing me terrible anxiety. I stopped taking it and although I find myself more tearful, I no longer have to take clonazepam during the day. Trade off. All antidepressants, especially SSRIs cause me anxiety. Propranolol helped get me off of clonazepam.
my doctor has put together the right combination of meds for me. i don’t agree that you don’t believe in giving benzodiazepines they can make life bearable for some. when your quality of life is a major struggle then the benefits far out way the risks.
I’m taking hydroxyzine for the pat 4.5 months and I have been experiencing dry heaves. Some weird sound that makes ppl ask if I have Tourette’s and involuntary muscles jerks of my left arm. I’m trying to figure out if this is a side effect of the meds
Report that to your doctor right away! If it's a side effect, which is quite possible, your doctor needs to know immediately. Have they tried you on a nightly dose of Guanfacine or Clonidine yet? These are gaining popularity in treating anxiety and PTSD, since they have fewer side effects and don't have the same risks of addiction or dependence as typical anxiety medications. They can also address insomnia and prevent migraines. Although they're FDA-approved to treat ADHD and to manage blood pressure, the smaller doses they use in treating anxiety won't lower blood pressure that much.
Infrequent side effects of Hydroxyzine: - Acid reflux - Muscle tremors - Dry mouth - Throat dryness Rare side effects of Hydroxyzine: - Seizures - Cognitive problems - Vomiting - Muscle twitching - Paradoxical bronchospasm - Stomach irritation If any of those somewhat describe what you're experiencing, it's best to speak with your doctor or pharmacist. Random people on the internet can't accurately answer your question. Go to a medical professional, describe what you're experiencing and when it started, give them a list of all of the medications you're taking and when you started taking each medication, and let the medical professional determine what is or isn't causing the issues you're experiencing. Nobody online, including myself, can tell you with certainty that the Hydroxyzine is or isn't causing what you're experiencing.

Hi,im 53 and i suffer so bad with insomnia!Tried Trazadone, RemRon,sleep aid,and it hasn't helped. I feel like my doctor doesn't care!I also tried melentonin. If someone can help me,id greatly appreciate it. I already take vistrial for anxiety. Thank you❤
Focus your awareness from your heart not your brain. Awareness from the brain creates overthinking that will lead to these symptoms. Doing it from the heart allows you to let go. 😊
I've been taking 20mg daily of fluoxetine for a month now, and it's been very helpful for my mood. I just got prescribed buspirone for extra anxiety control. Will update this comment on how it goes in another month from now. Thank you for the extra information in this video.
@justchillincedarrapids The buspirone was somewhat helpful but didn't fully relieve the anxiety. I was also prescribed Hydroxyzine for anxiety too, and now I feel like everything is being managed and under control. Currently my medications are Fluoxetine at 40 mg daily, buspirone 30 mg daily, and hydroxyzine 25mg when needed.
I have PTSD, anxiety disorder, depression,insomnia, my doctor will only give me lorazepam, which works, but Librium has worked better but can't get it. The visteril, which is prescription benedryl, gave me a seizure, and I do not have epilepsy. Im retired, almost 60, and have had these issues my entire life. Sad that medicare doesn't cover therapist cost, so I watch videos to replace a therapy session. So far it's working, thanks for the info.
Deal with your anxiety in any other way than by taking a controlled substance if you can. I’ve had several bouts with benzos and each time getting off was worse than the time before. Today I am benzo free and feeling great.
@@larrybaker6596 Because of the long term effects which any benzo user who has taken them and gone through withdrawals can attest. Also, they are dangerous when paired with wine and other alcoholic beverages.
There are no choices that really work..Medication and side affects for me has made SSRI and SNRIS intolerable. Life just doesn't stop because I am having an anxiety attack Two or three a month are more than I can deal with.

Exercise is the BEST treatment. I had extreme fear of flying. So I had my MD write me a script for 20 mgs of Valium. After about three flights with this regimen, I have no further fear.
Duloxetine is a very interesting drug. It’s good if you are suffering from depression or anxiety. Not sure why it would cause anger tho. I took it . I liked it but it only stays in the system for 12 hours and those symptoms I have noted return quickly. Gabapentin should give you a more calmer feeling. I also took that with duloxetine. I still use gabapentin with my Wellbutrin. Note! Coming off duloxetine is one hell of a ride. Even done slowly with a new drug. Make sure your doctor works very closely with you on this duloxetine. Maybe it’s just not the drug for you. Perhaps you could do gabapentin with buspirone. That’s a very calming combination. Good luck to you on your quest.
As a health Care provider, I found this to be an excellent, informative video. Especially the great explanation on addiction potential with the benzodiazepines.

I have chronic anxiety. I grew up with a deeply abusive mother and am still hypervigilant and anxious. I have tried the natural techniques, some of them help, but when a panic reaction sets in often without warning, I need to take medication. The way I use it which works best for me is to take a very small amount of Xanax daily which seems to calm my brain. This way I can lead a nearly normal life. I don't increase the amount unless it's a very bad day - but normally just 0.5 mg per day is enough to keep me calm throughout the day. I have tried other medications but this is the one which works best for me.
I was just prescribed propranolol for extreme anxiety and restlessness. I was at the point where I could not sit still for more than 1 - 2 minutes without feeling the need to move. Plus I was so anxious my stomach was in knots constantly and also made me feel the urge to vomit. I felt like giving up it is so bad. So far it is relaxing me to the point I can sit still long enough to write this comment. That anxious feeling is still lurking around however just more manageable.
My kids (& grandkids) live all over the US and I have horrible anxiety and panic about flying. How do I talk to my doctor about getting a 2 or 3 day prescription a couple times a year?
As someone who suffers with extreme severe anxiety I can totally relate to her. I would stop eating for days at a time as a punishment. I worry a lot about my life, everyone around me and pleasing everyone. It's absolutely crippling, so glad she got the help she needed, lovely young lady it's so sad that society has 1 in 3 people suffering mental health issues. I hope everyone seeks help
People need to realise that people with anxiety disorders have oversensitised nerves, it's not a simple case of manning up and getting over it.
Can you help with the reliable source I would really appreciate it. Many people talk about how mushrooms and psychedelics treats anxiety, but nobody talks about where to get them. Very hard to get a reliable source here in Australia. Really need!

I was reading a book about hormones. Hormones can have such a huge effect on the anxiety profile it’s quite incredible! The book called the ageless man. These guys who were suffering from depression, anxiety, diabetes, all were treated by simply putting the testosterone back into the normal range.
I had my hormones checked and they were all over the place. As soon as my doctor balanced them, I felt fine. I felt how I did when I was 14 again, not having a care in the world and happy!

I think one of the worst parts about anxiety is that it prevents people from actually seeking treatment, be it fear of the actual social interaction, or the fear that your doctor will think you're just trying to get drugs, especially if you've done some research on your own time and bring up a specific medication, most notably benzodiazepines. On top of that, reading about side effects and experiences from other people online doesn't help either.
When it comes to the side effects though, it's worth noting that many people are taking these medications and aren't having any significant problems. A lot of people sharing their experiences in online forums in most cases are going to be the most vocal minority who experienced negative side effects, so always pay close attention to the positives, because it has to have really made a difference if it drives them to go online and talk about it.
You can buy benzos on the street but most who need are too anxious to try. Its horrible.
It's disabling

I always recommend psychedelics to people battling with depression and anxiety it’s the best to work with , you don’t have to take it for years I won mine with the aid of psychedelic mushroom and it’s the best experience I’ve had , it gave me the confidence and courage to face my truth and it works magic, I get mine from and online vendor that specializes in the growth and sales of psychedelic products like DMT, LSD, MDMA, DXM it’s a great experience

We need to get together and make doctors listen to us! It's a hell I wouldn't wish on my worst enemy! I'm on benzos all day long I dont abuse them I take them as prescribed! Not everyone is a drug addict! With all the other meds u talked about and some days it barely takes the edge off! I've found some doctors dont want to be bothered with people that have anxiety. They want to sweep it under the rug as if it's not a serious problem!
i too suffer from chronic anxiety. runs in family. i take xanax as PRESCRIBED and find it to be most effective. tried prozac x 8 months, didn't help and was brutal titrating off. it is unfortunate that xanax is abused as this makes me feel as if i am being 'scrutinized'! (in addition to xanax i practice meditation, exercise and breathing techniques which helps). nothing worse than panic attack!
@@lyndapierson6338 my heart goes out to you! Xanax had a paradoxical effect on me. It seems to help women more than men. The GAD and the panic attacks and the other body systems are truly a hell!
I agree sometimes you really need meds
I'm totally with you. Doctors nowadays don't want to prescribe benzodiazepines but it's the only thing that helps. I've always took them as prescribed but they still won't give them to me. Idk what to do anymore.

Meetai, If stress affects internal physical health visit a good psychologist. . Heal yourself. Your breath is directly related to your mind [brain] causing negative thoughts-anxiety-stress. For a relaxed life sit on a chair, back erect, hands on lap with palms upwards, eyes closed, be still and observe your natural incoming--outgoing breath at the entrance of the nostrils for around 10-15 minutes or more. Be as still as possible. Slowly negative thoughts will reduce and relax the mind. Patience is needed. During your daily activity keep observing your breath consciously. Do the above meditation daily. Anyway you wilL lose nothing but gain something. . Positive affirmations for 5-10 minutes before sleep also gives quick relief. Best wishes. Shyaaam Sir. -Counsellor.

Thats fine but that’s not a real panic disorder

Mine will, too.
My major source of anxiety is driving and all the risks that come with it.
I drive to deliver food. That is my job. My retirement will directly result in a significant relief off my literal heart.
I can see that being true.
I had reactions to benzos, SSRIs, and beta blockers. What worked best for me was a nightly dose of Clonidine, which specifically targets the "fight or flight" panic and anxiety response by reducing the amount of norepinephrine in circulation. My daughter responded even better to its sister drug, Guanfacine, and it eliminated her anxiety and panic attacks. She also went from a C student to an A student overnight!
I know clonidine is very potent drug in lowering blood pressure. Isn't it dangerous to take it before bed since blood pressure naturally drops significantly during sleep?
@@simonram8505 Not really, since it's low dose Clonidine (0.1mg or 0.2mg) before bed to treat issues such as anxiety, PTSD, insomnia, ADHD, and other issues. The mild effect on blood pressure that low dose Clonidine has helps to mimic the normal decrease in blood pressure that happens during sleep, which is why it's a popular medication to treat insomnia in children as well as adults. My blood pressure has actually increased a bit on low dose Clonidine, since it reduces blood pooling in the legs and increases the blood volume in circulation.
The dosing for using Clonidine to manage high blood pressure is higher doses taken throughout the day, which is when you start to see a more noticeable effect on blood pressure.

Because you can measure how much blood pressure you have and then correct that but there is no way of measuring anxiety and what its doing to your body

I’ve been taking Xanax for 25 yrs.. it’s the ONLY med that can control my panic attacks. Frankly this med has saved my life. I have tried almost all the other meds he mentioned and even entered an experimental drug trial program. Sometimes I use it frequently.. sometimes I can go a while without taking it. Bottom line is that I need to have available, if I don’t and a panic attack hits I will be heading to the emergency room.
Why they say it can't be taken more than few months?
Because some people end up abusing the medication
25 years? Holy $hit....
I was on xanax for close to 30yrs. I had been at max dose for years. The last few years they have been trying to titrate me down. The same health care system that gave me this miracle drug (that saved my life) after 30 years says nope this is no good for you, causes dementia. Sooo long story short I had a seizure due to weaning me off. Ended up in intensive care + 12 days in the hospital. I have been off xanax for 2 months now & I've never been more miserable. They adjust my new meds every month and nothing works. I wish they would have left me alone
Same here , was on xanax for 20 years only thing that worked for me never had any side affects and was able to slowly taper down when needed, my doctor retire now they keep pushing me on drugs that don't work with more side affects , take it from the people that abuse it not that need it.
I'm 70 and I almost died in 2016. I suffer from serious anxiety and claustrophobia. After a year in a hospital in Sarasota I moved back to Lee County and the health system here refused to refill my ativan prescription because of drug protocol. So now I am forced to self medication with cheap beer. It's destroyed my liver but allows me to sleep.
I'm sorry 😪 Our health care system sucks in the U.S.
Magnesium,vitamin b12 and vitamin d ,niacin you’re welcome
Ask your doctor about clonodine. It's not a narcotic. I was on xanax for over 30 years for anxiety. Clonodine has worked great for me. Also, your doctor will probably be very willing to prescribe it.

Mindfulness, a calm environment with less caffeine & TV has been effective for me. Discontinuing anxiety medications is a very anxious experience; worse than what you think requires medication in the first place. Cannabis is a natural alternative for some folks as well. Valerian, Cava Cava & chamomile are helpful to many. Some form of centering meditation or just a few minutes alone can help to calm the mind. Writing out what one finds overwhelming is shown to be quite effective too.
Magnesium helps a little.
I’ve hear someone say something similar about Vitamin D helping them with anxiety. I’ll explore that
I tried busporine and it actually gave me way more anxiety, nausea, and what felt like panic attacks. Hopefully I can find something that helps soon because I’m to the point of barely being able to leave my house

Same for me! It seemed to sort of work but once it wore off my anxiety was worse than before when I had taken it.
I have been on Clorazepate 7.5mg along with my SSRI, daily EVERY DAY for 2 years. He recommends I take even more daily but I do not. Do you agree with my psychiatrist that a benzo like this is safe on a regular basis? It’s a super long half life benzo that comes on very slow - I pretty much don’t even notice it. I have panic disorder/PTSD/generalized anxiety / DPDR
I began to develop Anxiety symptoms when in my late teens. At first, it was an
extreme feeling of unease around people. I was put on 5mg Diazepam and found
instant relief. I have been on and off them ever since. I am now in my mid 60's.
My father was an extremely bad tempered man, who caused my and my mother
a lot of stress. In the late 80's I was taken off them. But I began to gravitate
towards alcohol, getting through at least 3 bottles of gin a week. My then Doctor
put me back on Diazepam at only 2mg and they did take the edge off the Anxiety.
My father has since passed away, and my mother is now severley invalid, and
needs 24/7 care. And the Doctor who originally prescribed the pills has just
retired. So, guess what? the other Doctors have put me on a reduction program,
which means that I will eventually be taken off them completely. My fear is that
I will return to alcohol to find some relief. I live in the UK and Benzodiazepines
are frowned upon by most Doctors. I just don't know how I can go on without
stress relief, as my my is very demanding, and needs to to do just about every
thing for her.
Every medication they try give u instead of diazepan read the side effects of the med a go bk to Ur doc a say Ur getting them side effects,and getting cut of diazepan after so long can cause fits/seizures etc av bin on Diaz an nitrazepam since 18 am nearly 40 now av changed docs wen I got resistance in getting them even was buying them at one point,hope u get a good doc who understands cos they do help ppl cope and are more effective than all the modern alternatives.

Only Benzo's work. They are addictive and thus dangerous. Even if you had a doctor who would prescribe them now, they won't do it forever. The other stuff is nonsense. Embrace your anxiety because you're just plain stuck with it. Lots of exercise helps.

One class of antidepressants that you did not mention is the MAOIs. Not used frequently, however, in my case Phenelzine Sulfate has been effective when the others were not. My doctor has me on Phenelzine, Propranolol and Clonazepam.

Be careful though read all the side effects.
It’s probably a better idea to find a better therapist that will wean you of meds and actually try to get to the root cause of your anxiety! Many doctors like to throw a pill to mask the symptoms of mental health issues, and while that may help temporarily, meds can only do so much!
- fun fact: all the studies regarding SSRIs/antidepressant’s, and anti anxiety medications were only ever APPROVED for short term use as a TEMPORARY BANDAID only for EXTREME CASES of anxiety, and it’s supposed to be used ALONG with therapy. As therapy progresses, you’re supposed to be gradually weaned off the meds so you can live a more normal life. Sadly many doctors and psychiatrists want to keep you on these drugs long term despite the fact that SRRIs were never approved nor designed for long term use. They also prescribe them for even the most mild anxiety to temporarily suppress the symptoms, despite the fact that SRRIS are actually supposed to be last resort/nothing else is working! Many doctors are sadly lazy af

I used to get anxiety from thinking about taking the meds but this seems to happen when I felt better . Once went off cold turkey & will never do that again & from then on haven’t had anxious thoughts about taking it . Very apparent that I feel safe & better on it❣️
I did the same thing with my lexapro that I've been taking for 20 years now. I thought I could come off it and be ok. By the 2nd month without it, I was a complete mess!! I've had doctors want to take me off it and I begged them not to do that. The idea that a doctor might take it away from me scares me so badly.
First of all I'm 71, work out, walk everywhere, good blood pressure etc. My ENT prescribed Venlafaxine 37.5 mg for my Vestibular Migraine that came out of nowhere. He said take it for 2 weeks. I took one at 10am and by Noon my Vertigo was 80% gone. I thought cool.. 2am the next morning I woke up with a blinding headache, and I don't get headaches. But I did read on Web MD you might want to watch your Blood Pressure if you take this. So I decided to take my Blood pressure. 196/121. Yeah off to the Emergency room I went.
I realize different medications can work differently in different people.. Just a Heads up.
The worst thing about anxiety is that constant feeling of impending doom. Every situation is definitely going to end up with the worst possible outcome, is the feeling I have. I tried Zoloft, but all that did was totally sap any motivation I had and sapped 100% of mu sexual desire. I just started 5mg of Buspar twice a day a couple weeks ago, but I haven't noticed any improvement yet. Keeping my fingers crossed.

I suffered from terrible anxiety and panic attacks. Medication just made it worse. I found slow breathing really made a tremendous difference. There are lots of videos about it on you tube. Therapy in a nutshell is a good one. I tried every drug under the sun, but slow breathing makes your brain realise you’re not in danger and stops the cortisol and adrenaline flooding your system, which is what makes you feel so bad. I practised the breathing on the hour, every hour, for 10 minutes. Just for a few days - and the anxiety I’ve struggled with for years has gone. If I do start to feel anxious now, 10 slow breaths and it’s gone. Good luck. I hope you find some peace. My anxiety was really bad too- I ended up in A and E with it once, because I thought I was dying!

I have been on benzos off and on since 1998, but have been on them everyday since 2014. I have PTSD/severe anxiety and panic disorder...I am taking lorazapam twice a day.
How well does it work if dont mind me asking
@@oxBLUNTxo Hi Corey, and no I don't mind you asking..If I can help with anything feel free to hit me up. After they tried several different ones in the benzo family, the lorazapam (Ativan), has seemed to work better for me. I used to have horrible panic attacks out of no where, and I started avoiding going in stores or being anywhere public..I bout became a recluse...I'm not like that anymore and I don't have the anxiety that I used to...However, I learned the hard way that I have to meet the medicine half way. If you know your triggers, try to eliminate any stressors that causes the triggers...I know that's hard to do..Took me a long time. But as for those that come at you from out of nowhere, I don't know what to do about them except I had to learn to talk myself down, and convince myself that I was ok, and it would pass...I always thought i was having a heart attack...but since I've been taking the lorazapam, I've done a lot better...like I said, I hardly have panic attacks anymore...I can take them up to 3 times a day on an as needed basis...I don't take them 3 times a day. I take one in the morning and one at night. And sometimes I don't take the one in the morning. Since I have insomnia like something crazy, I take it at night with my night meds to help me sleep. I hope I have been helpful...:)

@@shahyawar3709 what's more dangerous is having to live with anxiety
@@lorirabun5938 no. It's not. I was on anti depressants and anxiolytics for 7 years. Being of benzos for such a long period of times is dangerous. It can even lead to strokes. It destroys gaba receptors which aren't regenerative. I can never recover from the damage these meds caused me, possibly. So you are wrong. My experience with thes ethings is substantial.
I don’t get it why people keep saying that Xanax or Klonopin is so bad. If you take them when you really need them and not abuse them there was nothing wrong with it. I have been on Xanax and Klonopin for years that didn’t make me go smoke crack LOL I take it if I need it. I don’t understand people that will go through a day with such anxiety because they are worried about being addicted. We all have free will I take mine mostly to sleep at night once in a while I need it in the daytime but for gods sake‘s I have a neighbor that is so messed up she has been in and out of mental hospitals for a year now. I said to her just take the Xanax even if it’s to a day you’re not being a drug addict you’re trying to help yourself, but she doesn’t listen and I can’t even be around her anymore because I suffer from depression and anxiety and sometimes you can’t help people if they don’t wanna help themselves.

Hi Dr, just wanted to share my experience with the meds you mention in video. Propanalol only helps somewhat with the physical symptoms of anxiety. Hydroxyzine is just Benadryl that makes you tired like you said. Tried Buspar with no success... Seems pretty mild. Benzos work well cause they increase gaba the calming neurotransmitter. But I know the long term consequences. I've also tried many ssris with very little success. Zoloft turned me into a depressed zombie, lexapro made my anxiety ten times worse, Prozac, paxil, made my anxiety worse, celexa wasnt doing much of anything. Also tried seroquel, which completely knocks out anxiety, but turns you into a sedated turd. Unfortunately the only thing I've had much success with is a benzo. I only take em on occasion. Not tryin to discourage anyone cause eveyone is different and what might work for some may not help others. Dont know till you try. Thanks for the vid! Just wanted to share my experience.
Aaron, There is a solution to every problem if there is a desire and determination. . For a relaxed life without anxiety sit on a chair, back and spine erect, hands on your lap with palms upwards, close your eyes and do nothing. Be still without moving and observe your breathing and body sensations for around 10-15 minutes. What is important is to be as still as possible. Plenty of thoughts will come but slowly negative thoughts will reduce or vanish slowly. The mind is reprogrammed. Do twice daily or as per your convenience. This could be life-transforming if you desire change. Best wishes. Shyaaam Sir. -Counsellor.
Thanks I will try it! I have tried some meditation and it helps some... I know I need to do it more often. My biggest problem now is I obsess about my anxiety, constantly thinking about it throughout day, it is annoying. I know I'm just supposed to accept the thoughts and move on but its tough. Think the fact that I've tried so many meds with little success has made me obsess about it more! Like I think subconsciously there is something really wrong with my brain. Some people say you have an imbalance, and others say you don't. It confusing.
Thanks for the reply! Yeah I'm trying many things.. Meditation, natural supplements and vitamins. I'm learning alot about this stuff, probably way too much! I'm learning there are many options for this, not just a anti depressant with horrible side effects. Drs are quick to tell you you have an imbalance and prescribe pills. I think its a combination of many factors. I'm learning and trying to heal. Also working with a Naturalpath Dr, she has helped me more than any psych doc has. Checking all my food sensitivities, vitamin levels, homesystein, methylation, hormones etc. I've asked genetic testing many times form my psych and he always tells me no. Gonna have to do it myself I guess. And yes I pray everyday.. Thanks n best wishes!
I feel the same way about everything you had to say, anxiety is terrible and I have had anxiety it seems like my whole life, as of lately it’s been terrible. I have started menopause in the last few months and it’s the worst debilitating feeling I have ever experienced. Good luck to you.
Thanks, hope you are well! I've been trying some 5 htp last week or so.. It does mellow me out, trying to figure out dosage, and best Times to take it. It is showing promise.
I was poor years ago. Very stressful. I started saving and as my net worth went up my anxiety went down.
I am 68 years old and I have been suffering with panic attacks that just come on for no reason at all I have been in two car accidents because they just crept up on me I did a lot of cognitive behavioral therapy I have seen holistic chiropractors I have been on every type of organic food vitamins everything I am now currently on Klonopin I've been on it for many years and it works for me and I will continue with it until the day I die because I will never again have a panic attack especially having two to three a day for absolutely no reason whatsoever
thank you i needed to hear this
One thing that has helped me is exercise it doesn't really matter which one as long as it's in nature. Reading also helps tremendously since then you force your brain to think about something else.
Rarely hear anyone mention diet, exercise or sleep in treating anxiety. We are all about them pills, and it will be our downfall.
I agree.
However, I find it really hard to motivate myself to go anywhere when I’m down. But when I do, it usually makes me think that I ought to do it more often. Yet, when down I can’t convince myself.
Ive been having severe anxiety for 7 yrs. N been on xanax 1mg 3X a day. N im barest getting a better...i didn't drive,work, n barley left the house for 6.5 yrs... but im getting better this yr.

The problem with ssri and snri is that the manufacturers have never done the studies or shown the clear results that clearly show how they work on the brain if they work at all. Brain scans show they clearly affect the brain but is that the result of damage, addiction or a positive result? If you can reference those studies it would be appreciated. Thank you
Propranolol has its pros and cons. Was given this for anxiety and migraines. Problem is my blood pressure runs pretty low and this medication almost bottomed me out. Not to mention, it made my headache worse. Weird.

I took meds for over 20yrs & quit taking all pharmaceuticals about 4yrs ago, I still have anxiety but now also a distrust of Dr's & big pharma, fact is the stuff didn't really help much anyways, at least now i dont have to do the whole song & dance every month, being free of the need for Drs & pharmacies is extremely satisfying

Nicely explained. In my experience daily determined spiritual practices helps in such issues.
So many doctors mis prescribe the benzodiazapines... so glad you detail the proper usage of those. I'm suffering long term complications from using them a very long time. I don't wish this on anyone.
I’ve been prescribed 3 different antidepressants for my social anxiety and OCD. I would give anything to get a benzo prescription, but doctors just don’t seem to want to prescribe it to me. I don’t specifically ask them, bc that’s probably a red flag to the doctors, But I’ve told them- I don’t want something I have to take everyday with terrible side effects just in hopes that it will prevent my anxiety. I want something that will GET RID of my anxiety when I’m experiencing it. I want that “I know it’s there if I need it” feeling. Just having that would reduce my anxiety on its own. And I don’t get that with antidepressants. I know benzos can be dangerous, but to me it seems way less dangerous to only take them when you need them, instead of putting 2 different antidepressants in my body EVERY DAY that is doing who knows what to me
@@teeeff8337 You don't know what you are in for taking benzos. Take it from someone who was prescribed them for over 20 years. Yes, they work great at first but it will lead to dependance then addiction and getting off will be a living hell.
You're best bet is to prevent anxiety through diet. Start eating a keto or carnivore diet and your anxiety will disappear.
Benzodiazepine is not dangerous, look at the long-term studies. They’re shoving that down peoples throats about the addiction and all that garbage part of it because people have abused alcohol and died. The people who truly needed it and don’t abuse it are denied it. I wonder how many people have taken their own lives because they can’t get that medication, it saved my life. The doctors told me I was going to be on some thing the rest of my life. I dread everything they gave me and nothing worked. It only made it worse. Xanax was the only thing that gave me life and now they want to take it away from people, shame on the medical community when medical practices is supposed to be between patient and doctor, not the government!
I’ve taken them daily for 20months. Biggest mistake of my life.
A quick note: be cautious taking Zoloft. It nearly killed me emotionally and physically; created panic attacks and long lasting anxiety. Would have been better off smoking CBD.
Zoloft was a lifesaver to me. We all react differently to medications. Sorry it gave you such a bad time.
I took one zoloft pill - the lowest dose they have, and 4 hours later was in the ER with a low heart rate, and full panic attack. I'd never had either of those before. I was completely healthy otherwise but was seeking help with suddenly being a single parent with mild depression. And after 3 months I still have almost daily panic attacks. My advise to anyone starting zoloft, which is useful to many, - cut the pill and only take 1/3 for the first couple of days until you know how it affects you. Now, I've been taking otc GABA, and it's helped me better than the various stress Teas, cbd oil, ashwagandha, Chamomile, kava kava or other otc options. I'm still searching for something that will work better though. (probably a girlfriend)
if cbd is enough for you then you don't have actual anxiety
Struggled with anxiety for 30+ years. It wasn't until I went to a real psychiatrist and he recommended I try a stimulant after he felt my symptoms sounded more like attention/ADHD issues than anxiety. I was very nervous trying a stimulant.. However I have found Adderall truly does lower my anxiety. It's night/day difference. I feel a lot more in control and that allows me to feel much more comfortable.
Did you ever have frequent headaches too with you ADHD anxiety?
@@user-hn9qg5qm3o never did, no. But I know many get that.
My psychiatrist prescribed Hydroxyzine "as Needed", but used to take Buspirone daily. I have yet to takethe Hydroxyzine, saving for "emergencies". I take Trileptal as a mood stabilizer for Bipolar 1. Great information, Thank you

After taking Wellbutrin for 14 years, I realized it has been causing me terrible anxiety. I stopped taking it and although I find myself more tearful, I no longer have to take clonazepam during the day. Trade off. All antidepressants, especially SSRIs cause me anxiety.
Propranolol helped get me off of clonazepam.
Top 1 and the best, workout, maybe not help enough but helps alot
St John’s Wort and 5HTP might be an answer for those with mild to moderate anxiety.
my doctor has put together the right combination of meds for me. i don’t agree that you don’t believe in giving benzodiazepines they can make life bearable for some. when your quality of life is a major struggle then the benefits far out way the risks.

I’m taking hydroxyzine for the pat 4.5 months and I have been experiencing dry heaves. Some weird sound that makes ppl ask if I have Tourette’s and involuntary muscles jerks of my left arm. I’m trying to figure out if this is a side effect of the meds
Report that to your doctor right away! If it's a side effect, which is quite possible, your doctor needs to know immediately.
Have they tried you on a nightly dose of Guanfacine or Clonidine yet? These are gaining popularity in treating anxiety and PTSD, since they have fewer side effects and don't have the same risks of addiction or dependence as typical anxiety medications. They can also address insomnia and prevent migraines. Although they're FDA-approved to treat ADHD and to manage blood pressure, the smaller doses they use in treating anxiety won't lower blood pressure that much.
No. Hydroxyzine is merely a antihistamine.
Infrequent side effects of Hydroxyzine:
- Acid reflux
- Muscle tremors
- Dry mouth
- Throat dryness
Rare side effects of Hydroxyzine:
- Seizures
- Cognitive problems
- Vomiting
- Muscle twitching
- Paradoxical bronchospasm
- Stomach irritation
If any of those somewhat describe what you're experiencing, it's best to speak with your doctor or pharmacist. Random people on the internet can't accurately answer your question. Go to a medical professional, describe what you're experiencing and when it started, give them a list of all of the medications you're taking and when you started taking each medication, and let the medical professional determine what is or isn't causing the issues you're experiencing. Nobody online, including myself, can tell you with certainty that the Hydroxyzine is or isn't causing what you're experiencing.

Focus your awareness from your heart not your brain. Awareness from the brain creates overthinking that will lead to these symptoms. Doing it from the heart allows you to let go. 😊
I've been taking 20mg daily of fluoxetine for a month now, and it's been very helpful for my mood. I just got prescribed buspirone for extra anxiety control. Will update this comment on how it goes in another month from now.
Thank you for the extra information in this video.
how is it?
@justchillincedarrapids
The buspirone was somewhat helpful but didn't fully relieve the anxiety.
I was also prescribed Hydroxyzine for anxiety too, and now I feel like everything is being managed and under control.
Currently my medications are Fluoxetine at 40 mg daily, buspirone 30 mg daily, and hydroxyzine 25mg when needed.
Experiencing any side effects
I have been on proszac and buspar For ten months now has really helped me.
I have PTSD, anxiety disorder, depression,insomnia, my doctor will only give me lorazepam, which works, but Librium has worked better but can't get it. The visteril, which is prescription benedryl, gave me a seizure, and I do not have epilepsy. Im retired, almost 60, and have had these issues my entire life. Sad that medicare doesn't cover therapist cost, so I watch videos to replace a therapy session. So far it's working, thanks for the info.
How many MG librium did you take? I took 10mg doses for alcohol withdrawal and didn't feel a whole lot in terms of it treating anxiety
Deal with your anxiety in any other way than by taking a controlled substance if you can. I’ve had several bouts with benzos and each time getting off was worse than the time before. Today I am benzo free and feeling great.

Why would you want to get off if they work
@@larrybaker6596 Because of the long term effects which any benzo user who has taken them and gone through withdrawals can attest. Also, they are dangerous when paired with wine and other alcoholic beverages.

Hi Dr. Richardson, my Dr has me on Gabapentin and Duloxetine for anxiety but I feel really angry, is that normal?
Duloxetine is a very interesting drug. It’s good if you are suffering from depression or anxiety. Not sure why it would cause anger tho. I took it . I liked it but it only stays in the system for 12 hours and those symptoms I have noted return quickly. Gabapentin should give you a more calmer feeling. I also took that with duloxetine. I still use gabapentin with my Wellbutrin. Note! Coming off duloxetine is one hell of a ride. Even done slowly with a new drug. Make sure your doctor works very closely with you on this duloxetine.
Maybe it’s just not the drug for you. Perhaps you could do gabapentin with buspirone. That’s a very calming combination. Good luck to you on your quest.
The neurontin may be causing your anger...ask your doctor! Best wishes!
What about Pregabalin? How does it compare to Gabapentin? Which is better tolerated? What about sexual dysfunction or emotional blunting?
As a health Care provider, I found this to be an excellent, informative video. Especially the great explanation on addiction potential with the benzodiazepines.
Anti depressants cause discontinuation syndrome same as benzo withdrawal. Both have to be tapered

I have chronic anxiety. I grew up with a deeply abusive mother and am still hypervigilant and anxious. I have tried the natural techniques, some of them help, but when a panic reaction sets in often without warning, I need to take medication. The way I use it which works best for me is to take a very small amount of Xanax daily which seems to calm my brain. This way I can lead a nearly normal life. I don't increase the amount unless it's a very bad day - but normally just 0.5 mg per day is enough to keep me calm throughout the day. I have tried other medications but this is the one which works best for me.
Why do so many antidepressants have a weight gain side effect?
I know exactly what you mean! You are not alone
I was just prescribed propranolol for extreme anxiety and restlessness. I was at the point where I could not sit still for more than 1 - 2 minutes without feeling the need to move. Plus I was so anxious my stomach was in knots constantly and also made me feel the urge to vomit. I felt like giving up it is so bad. So far it is relaxing me to the point I can sit still long enough to write this comment. That anxious feeling is still lurking around however just more manageable.
