  • Should you take medication for Anxiety / GAD / General Anxiety Disorder is an important question to consider before just agreeing with you loved ones or Doctors prescription. Understanding what it does and how and what the journey might look like is incredibly important.
    So this is my take on what to consider, why I didn’t take medication for Anxiety and when you should potentially take medication for Anxiety.
    I hope you find it useful.

    Good on you and you have recognised the difference between anxiety and an anxiety disorder, which prevents rational thought and leads to major depressive illness - In these cases medication can save lives. Trust me I’ve lived and seen the effects I like your vids Well Done

    I have anxiety disorder..bad. for decades..no doctor ever mentioned side-effects or withdrawal symptoms which are hellish, when prescribing their meds. I was made worse if anything by these and now have to go through withdrawals( more anxiety) ..think long and hard and do all the research you can before starting these neurotoxic chemicals that alter your brain and make it dependent, do damage to your system that is sometimes irreversibile( but you may not experience it until yrs late)r and will not treat the cause, only masksing the symptoms ( if you're lucky)
    Good counselling and psychotherapy should be the first line of treatment for anxiety( and general holistic healthcare)

      I have feared medication my entire life... I fear losing any part of my brain because I think I have ideas to change the world! Anxiety has sprung up fast and hard lately in my life. Ready to try all natural and healthy routes before taking any mediciation.

    so the meds buy you time till you sort your issues out but what if your issue that causes the anxiety doesnt have an answer

      It’s about finding an answer that works for you. It might be an answer that is 60/80% right for you. It doesn’t have to be 100% just better than it is now.

    I only had anxiety coz i failed to impress a guy.
    Found out he had a girlfriend
    It crushed me 😢
    I kept ruminating my text messages.
    But ye.

    • @MattHutton

      Ask yourself why you felt anxious?
      Here’s an example train of thought, I’m not implying it is true.
      Silly question but why did I get anxious because I got rejected by a guy?
      …because I liked him and wanted to be with him.
      Why did that make me anxious?
      …because I didn’t get what I wanted
      Why did that make me anxious
      …because I didn’t feel accepted
      Why does that make me anxious
      …because of this earlier event in my life where I got rejected by someone and I am now seeking acceptance to validate that I’m worth something.
      This is just an example train of thought, I’m not at all suggesting it is true but if you can keep asking yourself why? You will get closer to the root cause of the anxiety and you can talk to a trusted friend or counsellor to help you understand why the think you fear/are anxious about is irrational and no-longer serves you now.
      I hope this helps you or anyone who is reading :)
