I totally identify with the worry becoming the problem and how it can paralyze you. I wouldn't wish it on anyone. It's crazy how mental illness can make a person suffer in unimaginable ways.
I can feel my heartbeat. I hate that. I gave up coffee two months ago and changed my diet. went to the doctor. nothing found. it sucks. I hate feeling tired all the time, I just wanna feel like me again.
@@fallenscenes2516 I have a similar problem when I go to bed I can hear my heart thump and it freaks me out. For me Propranolol seems to help even at a low dose like 5mg
Honestly, this has been happening to me for 3 months now, I don't know how to help myself with this, I'm not sure if I have GAD, but I can say that what I'm going through is hell, I'm going through pathological worry 24 hours a day, I look at everything negatively, I'm afraid of everything, the voices in I'm afraid I'm going to die, my heart starts to hurt, I have headaches and pain in my stomach, I'm afraid of everything, I've even gone out before, now it's hard for me somehow, I feel the safest at home, I have nightmares from which I can't even sleep, I wake up suddenly and my heart is abnormal I'm pounding, so even sleeping is no longer an option, this has become a nightmare, I don't know what to do, whoever I write to can't answer me about this, could you give me some advice and what's going on here, thank you
It sounds like you're going through a very difficult time. It's possible that you may be experiencing symptoms of Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD) or another anxiety disorder. However, only a mental health professional can make a proper diagnosis. In the meantime, there are some things you can do to help alleviate your symptoms. Here are a few suggestions: 1) Practice deep breathing or relaxation techniques when you feel anxious. There are many apps and resources available that can guide you through these exercises. 2) Challenge negative thoughts. When you notice yourself thinking negatively, try to question the validity of these thoughts. Are they based on facts or assumptions? Is there evidence to support them? 3) Try to stay present. When you find yourself worrying about the future, try to focus on the present moment. Use your senses to ground yourself in the moment, such as focusing on the sensation of your feet on the ground or the sound of your breathing. 4) Stay connected with supportive friends and family. Reach out to loved ones and talk about what you're going through. Sometimes just talking about your worries can help alleviate anxiety. 5) Consider seeking professional help. A mental health professional can help you develop coping strategies and provide additional support. Remember that recovery from anxiety is possible, and seeking help is a sign of strength.
I've had this for years. I think I would have benefited more in the long run if I had been treated for my anxiety rather than for my depression, as even when the depression lifted, the anxiety was still there.

It's been 4 years, intergenerational trauma and narcissistic abuse together at the same time made life unbearable: recurrent panic attacks, muscle pains, disrupted sleep, ruminations, more muscle pains. Couldn't find a therapist that could figure it out until recently, but I'm just beginning therapy. My relationships suffered too much and I couldn't even see it from the inside. Now it's my first week on pregabalin and 2 SSRIs and I feel so relieved. I should have done this a year or even 2 years back! Oh yes, and I WAS overeducating myself and making lists. I make lists incessantly.
Great to have a name to what I've dealt with my entire life. Worrying that never ends or resolves it feels like OCD for worrying thoughts. Things you cant possibly solve.
Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD) is a common condition that is characterized by excessive, persistent worry and anxiety about a variety of things. People with GAD often worry about things that most people would not consider to be dangerous or threatening, and they may find it difficult to control their worry. Symptoms of GAD can include restlessness, difficulty concentrating, irritability, and feeling on edge. GAD can be treated with a combination of therapy and medication, and many people with GAD are able to manage their symptoms and lead fulfilling lives.

I was on benzodiazepines for over 17 years because the SSRI's didn't work. I think it's important to note that a couple of the Atypical Antipsychotics such as Seroquel and Risperidone are used off label and are effective for GAD when other options have been utilized but have failed to relieve symptoms. The Risperidone along with the Buspar works for me just fine. I found it interesting that benzodiazepines are generally not prescribed for GAD considering I know a lot of doctors where these are their first line of treatment. It was a very interesting and informative video Dr. Carandang.
I probably have GAD, though I'm not sure. I worry and use the bathroom constantly. Sometimes I have nausea and diarrhea. I tend to put things off because I get really anxious. I'm afraid to go out, because I fear something bad might happen.
My reality is nothing but bad shit happens constantly. So this is how I live and have lived for 25 years. It’s sucks but it’s life. I wish I could move. I would love to live outside of the economic prison that is Appalachia.
Can anxiety make it to where your mind is racing/unable to focus 24/7 you can’t even think of what to cook? Can it make your head feel foggy and pressurized? Unable to even play with kids? Unable to tolerate lights and sounds or being in public? Couldn’t be in living room with family over holiday it was too much stimuli. Seen several drs and most think anxiety. Can anxiety honestly make it unbearable 24/7?
I have GAD. After 23 years on and off prescribed Xanax consumption I'm slowly waking up to the fact that I may have been a full blown benzo addict. Although I always took smaller doses than recommended and never exceeded that and never ever took Xanax even the day before I was supposed to have a beer or something; I consistently needed it to function through a week. Today I suffer from tremors, extreme muscle tension, movement disorder and memory loss. I tapered off by own initiative and finally quit. It's been one year clean now and the withdrawal symptoms are still strong. Feels like I'm short on Gaba. Some sources say benzo withdrawal can be protracted and last for years. Don't let my story become yours.
Both my parents have been diagnosed with Major depressive disorder and Panic Disorder. My dad is diagnosed with OCD and My mum was advised by our family therapist to get diagnosed with that. She also has PTSD. I have been diagnosed with Depression but I refuse to believe it tbh it'll take a long time but I'll accept it and move in with therapy. I have GAD which is why I clicked on this video and it's crippling and I can't look outside or talk on the phone without fainting, I have a lot of other disorders but the genetic component is with my C-ptsd and i suffered and was diagnosed with OCD when I was younger although just have impulsive thoughts and 'grown out of it?' I'm studying psychology as much as I can and plan to study it in university when I pull my life together enough to take my gsce's. Basically I have no hope lol
Can severe gad cause derealization, detachment feelings? Also sounds are too loud, lights too bright? My head always feels ljke it’s in a fog and I get moments of feeling detached. Lights are too bright and I’m super sensitive to all sounds 24/7. Not just with high anxiety. I’m also very jumpy, on edge. Ruminate/worry 24/7 about how I feel.
Thank you so much for this informative video. I just have started on a prescription of Paxil and I am currently seeking therapy to see if generalized anxiety disorder is the right diagnosis for me into and coping skills for my severe paralyzing anxiety.
Im 99% convinced I suffer from GAD. Since I was a child iv felt the same way you have described in this video. I'v never been to the doctors about this because I always believed I could over come it on my own and without medication. And I always thought no one would understand. Because I'v told many people about it and all I get is man up or just calm down. It's getting to breaking point now, iv lost so many good jobs to this. I'm 28 and I genuinely carnt see any point in carrying on like this. I'v made a choice to make an appointment at my doctor's next week. But I'm not very optimistic.
Suffering from GAD, I put lorazepam prescribed until an anti depressant SSRI took effect, which took approx 1 year. Tried 4 SSRI and only the last, fluoxetine, worked fine (took 12 weeks to work!). I stopped with lorazepam two weeks later. No addictive effect.
Yet I never worry but have an anxiety disorder?? What the hell, and I have been in benzo's for nearly 30 years to just have had them pulled. Now I am suffering the withdrawal symptoms...
There are different types of anxiety disorders, and worrying as part of a generalized anxiety disorder is just one example. It is not recommended that benzodiazepines be taken for the long term. 30 years is too long.
Wayne Woodward..how and what are you doing about being off benzo's? Hope it went well, I am taping off xanax of 7 yrs. dr took me off without warning and having a hard time coping without them.
I have general anxiety that leads to depression. I was on escitalopram(50mg) and it worked wonderfully. However, I gained 40 lbs so I tapered off. I tried fluoxetine and that sent me into depression after one pill. Now, I am taking 150mg of Sertraline. I have only been on 150mg for 3 weeks. I started out at 25mg 2.5 months ago. I also take Buspirone 7.5mg twice a day. The depression is gone but I still have a little anxiety such as the globus sensation. Should give the Sertraline more time or switch to a different SSRI?
If sertraline is working for your depression, then that is a treatment that is working, and should not be changed. Talk to your doctor about how to address your anxiety symptoms. Dr. Carlo is available for psychiatric consultations at his Seattle private practice: Carlo-Carandang.com
Last 4 years i have been struggling with all types of anxiety ocd paranoia etc. I tried natural supplements cbd oil medical marijuana etc. My relieve is coming from setraline or zoloft ssris. This is my third week on them. I dont mind if i have to take them for life time. Living a normal life its what matters the most
Anxiety has been ruining my life for 3 years now. Ive been to doctors tons of meds and nothing helps. Im considering electric shock therapy. Ill do anything to alleviate this problem.

Medazepam, Afobazol, and dont masturbate or work to much,
I to have general anxiety disorder it is crippling and lonely and very frightening to be battling with your thoughts over and over again until it makes you physically and mentally drained I feel stuck and no amount of re assurance I get I still panic that if I do start changing my thoughts into more positive one I then start to worry more as I'm losing control of the old thought People haven't been very nice to me either as they think I'm a paranoid freak and that I go on and on and on if only they realise how upsetting and frightening to me then should hold back before they say anything and makes me feel like and out cast so that again will make my anxiety worse.i wish I didn't suffer this way I can't enjoy life I seem to just exist it's a losing battle and one I can't control god bless everyone who is suffering and please don't use negative comments to someone with gad because I bet you deep down in them they wish that they did suffer from this debilitating illness either it's not there fault and they are just as worthy as everyone else xx
What you described is exactly my thought process too. Fear of loosing control of the previous frightening thought, fear becase youre letting a huge problem aside and its this is making it always lurking and worsening. Realizing that is devastating, you know that your in a trap and theres no way out.
Nothing works everytime. I've had diminished anxiety from taking benadryl. But theres a tradeoff in the form of restlessness and weight gain. I believe I'm better at treating myself than others are.
I wanted to ask my psychiatrist suggested mood stabilisers for treatment resistant anxiety disorders. Have you ever used them and if so, how effective are they on people with clinical anxiety such as GAD and panic disorder?
Here are the mood stabilizers for anxiety, and their specific indications: gabapentin: generalized anxiety disorder, social phobia, and panic disorder- anxietyboss.com/anxiety-treatments/prescription-drugs/#gabapentin; pregabalin: generalized anxiety disorder, social phobia, and panic disorder- anxietyboss.com/anxiety-treatments/prescription-drugs/#pregabalin; lamotrigine: PTSD- anxietyboss.com/anxiety-treatments/prescription-drugs/#lamotrigine
Did he say you can't get it with caffeine? But actually my anxiety gets bad when I have sugar or caffeine I feel because when I don't eat it or drink it I'm usually anxiety free
Try KalmPro, a natural anxiety and depression supplement, without the side effects of prescription antidepressants: www.amazon.com/KalmPro-Recommended-Supplement-Psychiatrist-Pharmaceutical/dp/B00WFMON4A
I've been taking 1.5 mg of bromazepam for my insomia and it helps with my anxiety to.. But im worried that i would be addicted to it. Sometimes i just take half a pill
You are justified in your concerns over the addiction potential to benzodiazepines. Go to your doctor and ask for another sedative that is not addictive.
My husband is suffering for severe anxiety. He has not worked since September. He has been in and out of outpatient support groups. He was recently discharged because the hospital does not know how to treat him. He tried to admit himself into our local ER last week, and they were confused how to help him. We have had every test under the sun. He has become hopeless, and has mentioned suicide. I don't understand why he can get the right help. He has been on Klonopin for more then 7 years. he can not get a correct dosage that makes him comfortable, or it has stopped working. He is not able to function without it. He will not take any other meds due to side effects and how he will react causing more anxiety. Plus he has had a DNA test to see what meds may take, and the list was very short. My thoughts are he needs to be somewhere where he can get of Klonopin and get on a more effective less addictive med, but where can we go to get help?
If his anxiety is severe, then I would recommend that he sees a psychiatrist. Klonopin (clonazepam) taken for more than a few weeks can lead to other problems, like benzodiazepine abuse and dependence.
Sheri Mason please do some meditation especially with Dr Hanson. They explain thenbrain and why one is feeling this way. Helped me sooo much,(thank god). I was going crazy
It's probably the benzos that's causing the severe anxiety, if he has been on it 7 years then the med is doing absolutely nothing for him. Ssris are his best bet along with a safer panic drug like propranolol, I suggest your husband go to an Inpatient Rehab to start tapering off the benzo
Thanks for this video. The most troubling symptom I have is inability to fall asleep. When night comes flight or fight automatically kicks in and I’ll even twitch as I fall asleep. Have Xanax and Trazodone, but they don’t always work and sleep quality is very low. Any suggestions for more specific medications I can discuss with my doc? Would CBT be useful for this type of physical symptom? Need my sleep.
@Rutland MGTOW man Uk Wow I just started Buspar and it has it moments but I STILL battle the Constant Anxiety . I like Cannabis Indica Alot it makes me Happy and Relaxed 😁
Can gad cause weird mental sensations ljke blanking out, feeljng not present, just bizarre sensations/feelings in the brain. Also can it cause sensitivity to lights and sounds? Even going from one room to another with different lighting I’m very sensitive too then feel weird.
Doctors dont ever give out benzos anymore. I've been to 4 different doctors in like a 6 week period tries busipar that was horrible I was on celexa before and got into bad habits and quit taking them. Now trying lexapro. On day 3 now I have eaten very little the past few days I've taken days off work the past few weeks which is VERY unlike me in 8 years I've only taken maybe 10 days off and I feel like I'm going nuts even though I know my mind is just tricking me. I wish this on absolutely no one. Physical pain is nothing to this I wish I could just have some physical pain instead it's absolutely horrid. Hopefully meds kick in much sooner than 8 weeks. Send some prayers my way to make it there without a mental breakdown
i have also faced gad my b.p shoots and i felt that i m dying ,dr prescribed me the b.p medication.after research i found that was panic attack and GAD,then i consult psychiatrist he prescribed me cipralex 10mg ,i m taking i since two years.and GAD fully overcame.is it good to continue it for mental health,plz rep
farhan ali I can relate. My Blood Pressure shoots up as well. I’m trying to learn how to not worry. Looking at the events in my life past seems to Follow. Once I’m good my bp is normal. Meditation helps me Journaling and walking everyday.
How do you know if your anxiety is severe and my symptoms started after I quit smoking marijuana do you know what I can do to overcome this it feels like I’m going to die every night before I go to sleep I need help and all my mom do is refuse to take me to an hospital
Rkezzy London you will be okay often 90 days you will be better stay strong exercise eat lots a vegetables drink lots a water I’m going to the same problem I stop smoking weed 2 mots ago and anxiety star kicking on me , breathing exercises help stay strong blessings
See a doctor. Get to a hospital any way you can and ask to be admitted to psych, if you can’t get to a doctor. Sounds like you might have been medicating with marijuana. Many people do this, it is totally normal, but a medication and medical treatment as well as lifestyle changes (sleep schedule, yoga, etc) can be really helpful.
I've had GAD since age 13. . I was on a whole bunch of different medications until age 21. Ativan, zoloft, xanax, lithium, risperidal etc. I did CBT for three years. Nothing worked and I was always a zombie with so many meds. I figured out the real reason behind my GAD is because of my childhood trauma and unstable upbringing. None of these will be a permanent or a complete fix. I am sure many agree with me that these methods barely even work. I am going to look into EMDR, DBT and others that are less well known and that seem much more efficient.
You make Benzos sound addictive, but at what dose a day? And why should a drug like an SNRi or SSRI be reconemnded before if it makes symtoms worse and person may have to wait 2 months of suffering before finding out if it works. Why are only those with mental suffering expected to live like this? Would you tell a heart patient you may not die, but this drug may give you more crushing heart pain for.few.months before it works.
Sir I'm a medical student in in India just did my mbbs no I m preparing for post graduate exam, I have to regular study n I m doing it since 6 month, I have GAD, I on the treatment duloxetine 60mg plus buspirone 5mg bd since 5 years but problem is exam date is coming near, due which my major symptoms like muscle tension lateral temporal ,eye muscle tension, not able to concentrate only 1.5 month is left for exam but due to this I m not able to study efficientlly ,,.....plz give me some advice what should I do ? ...
I think i have gad. I have all the symptomes. I started zoloft 2 weeks ago, and take 50 mg seroquel. However this is not helping. I have rapit hearbits almost all the time, its driving me crazy. The only solution i can think of is to up the doze of seroquel. My anxiety is so bad that i feel paralyzed. Since ive only taken zoloft, 50mg for two weeks its probably to early to see if it will help. Thanks for a great video.
Thanks for visiting. But be careful on taking Seroquel for GAD...Seroquel is not indicated for anxiety disorders, and only a last resort treatment for anxiety. Please follow-up with a competent psychiatrist on this.
Gabba, 5htp, Passion Flower, Lemon Balm, and L- Theanine are key to finally overcoming your anxiety. Stay away from these dangerous drugs which the psychiatrist admits to here.
I sometimes feel like I can’t catch my breath out of nowhere and rarely sometimes my mind thinks I’m gonna pass out and I start feeling lightheaded. I get tingling and muscle twitching on the side of my head and sometimes my top lip goes numb. Also sometimes feel like I’m off balance and feeling fatigue. I’ve been checked numerous times by different doctors and they say I have anxiety. Crazy how anxiety can feel so real. This all started when I became a dad. Any help to get rid of this kind of anxiety? Thank you...
It is possible for anxiety to cause physical symptoms, including chest pain, although it is important to note that chest pain can also be a symptom of other, more serious conditions. If you are experiencing chest pain that lasts for more than a few minutes or is accompanied by other concerning symptoms such as shortness of breath, nausea, or dizziness, it is important to seek medical attention right away as these could be signs of a more serious problem such as a heart attack. In general, anxiety can cause a range of physical symptoms including: Chest pain or discomfort Rapid heartbeat Shortness of breath or difficulty breathing Dizziness or lightheadedness Nausea or stomach pain Muscle tension or tremors Sweating Headaches Fatigue If you are experiencing chest pain that is not relieved by rest and that lasts for more than a few minutes, or if you have any other concerning symptoms, it is important to seek medical attention right away. If this is anxiety related, consider: www.kalmpro.com/ and anxietyboss.com/the-anxiety-protocol/
I can totally agree, I want help and in the end I'll end up going to a psychiatrist. But I want a way where I don't have to be in the awkward and anxiety filling situation of telling people my problems or better yet how I feel in general.
AnxietyBoss I will do whatever it takes! I would like a holistic, natural approach to treating whatever I have. I hate medications & I’m scared to take anything! I don’t want to make it worse. I do have severe symptoms, but I don’t know about prescriptions. My symptoms are so severe that I’m calling out of work, & avoiding things. My symptoms started to get real bad about a month ago. It just won’t go away! It seems to get worse. I think it’s from my birth control.
Ya- so? Seroquel is a dopamine antagonist, and decreases dopaminergic tone downstream, whereas Seroquel increases serotonergic tone downstream. Your logic needs to be checked...the doctor has spoken...Dr. Carlo out.
I have anxiety I'm felling dying because of my anxiety my head is felling full of air dizziness what would I do I'm from Philippines thank you very much
Go see your doctor for a medical evaluation. If your doctor thinks it is anxiety- based, then please go to AnxietyBoss.com for more information and help on anxiety.

So once you got gad that's it, its just how your brain are wired and you dont can do to much to help with it? No real recovery from this? I have gad in My early 30's. I can't understand if something can come as disorder can not be put back in order? Or we are simply born like this?
Generalized anxiety disorder (GAD) is a condition that can affect your life in a significant way. While it is true that the condition is often thought to be related to the way your brain is wired, that does not mean that recovery is not possible. There are many effective treatments for GAD, including therapy, medication, and lifestyle changes, that can help people manage their symptoms and improve their quality of life. It's also important to note that the causes of GAD are complex and can involve a combination of genetic, environmental, and life experiences factors. So, it's not simply a matter of being "born this way." It's important to seek professional help if you are struggling with GAD or any other mental health condition. A mental health professional can help you understand your condition, develop a treatment plan, and provide support as you work towards recovery. With the right treatment and support, it is possible to make significant progress in managing GAD and improving your overall wellbeing.

Did you ever take it? I've been on it for about a month and a half, and it's made such a huge difference in my life (luckily no side effects). I was scared to even pick up the prescription and put it off for a week, but I'm so glad I started taking it.
Ssri like escitalopram. Xanax may be working first but it does nothing in few week. Escitalopram seems not working at the beginning but in the long run it changes you in a positive thinking person. Hard to quit though. Also lethal if overdose.
SSRIs are the best, starting with Zoloft and Paxil (Prozac, not so much). Buspar would be the best, but only if it truly works for GAD for the individual, as Buspar has virtually no side effects.
It's prescribed for Generalized Anxiety Disorder. For some people, this medication works, and it does not have many side effects. For many others, it does not work, but at least it does not have side effects.
I totally identify with the worry becoming the problem and how it can paralyze you. I wouldn't wish it on anyone. It's crazy how mental illness can make a person suffer in unimaginable ways.

Can anxiety make it to where your mind is racing/unable to focus 24/7 you can’t even think of what to cook? Can it make your head feel foggy and pressurized? Unable to even play with kids? Unable to tolerate lights and sounds or being in public? Couldn’t be in living room with family over holiday it was too much stimuli. Seen several drs and most think anxiety. Can anxiety honestly make it unbearable 24/7?
Yes to all.
I have GAD. After 23 years on and off prescribed Xanax consumption I'm slowly waking up to the fact that I may have been a full blown benzo addict. Although I always took smaller doses than recommended and never exceeded that and never ever took Xanax even the day before I was supposed to have a beer or something; I consistently needed it to function through a week. Today I suffer from tremors, extreme muscle tension, movement disorder and memory loss. I tapered off by own initiative and finally quit. It's been one year clean now and the withdrawal symptoms are still strong. Feels like I'm short on Gaba. Some sources say benzo withdrawal can be protracted and last for years. Don't let my story become yours.
Thanks for sharing. Consider a non-benzodiazepine such as www.kalmpro.com
Both my parents have been diagnosed with Major depressive disorder and Panic Disorder. My dad is diagnosed with OCD and My mum was advised by our family therapist to get diagnosed with that. She also has PTSD.
I have been diagnosed with Depression but I refuse to believe it tbh it'll take a long time but I'll accept it and move in with therapy. I have GAD which is why I clicked on this video and it's crippling and I can't look outside or talk on the phone without fainting, I have a lot of other disorders but the genetic component is with my C-ptsd and i suffered and was diagnosed with OCD when I was younger although just have impulsive thoughts and 'grown out of it?' I'm studying psychology as much as I can and plan to study it in university when I pull my life together enough to take my gsce's.
Basically I have no hope lol
Go see a psychiatrist.
Try medicine please how are you feeling? I tried L Theanine and GABA gummies from Walmart try it
Honestly, it's great that your whole family decide to do therapy. I wish mine did. 🥲
Can severe gad cause derealization, detachment feelings? Also sounds are too loud, lights too bright? My head always feels ljke it’s in a fog and I get moments of feeling detached. Lights are too bright and I’m super sensitive to all sounds 24/7. Not just with high anxiety. I’m also very jumpy, on edge. Ruminate/worry 24/7 about how I feel.
Yes it can: anxietyboss.com/derealization-a-defense-mechanism-for-anxiety/
Yes
Yes ... But it alleviates as circumstances improve ...talking from personal experience
Thank you so much for this informative video. I just have started on a prescription of Paxil and I am currently seeking therapy to see if generalized anxiety disorder is the right diagnosis for me into and coping skills for my severe paralyzing anxiety.
Good luck
I honestly do not worry. I rarely have angst over upcoming events.
How can I have anxiety? My doctors diagnoses of anxiety is bruising my ego.
If you don’t have fear or worry, then it’s unlikely to be anxiety. Move on.
Thanks...
You're welcome!
Does anyone have the burning skin from anxiety
Yes, I had that when my anxiety was really severe.
Yes especially a burning feeling on top of my head
roses and thorns yeah i felt that in my arms and chest
The feeling of burning skin is a physical symptom of anxiety that some people experience.
Yes
Im 99% convinced I suffer from GAD. Since I was a child iv felt the same way you have described in this video. I'v never been to the doctors about this because I always believed I could over come it on my own and without medication. And I always thought no one would understand. Because I'v told many people about it and all I get is man up or just calm down. It's getting to breaking point now, iv lost so many good jobs to this. I'm 28 and I genuinely carnt see any point in carrying on like this. I'v made a choice to make an appointment at my doctor's next week. But I'm not very optimistic.
Good luck, and just state your symptoms and how they are affecting your life. You need to see a psychiatrist eventually.
@@AnxietyBoss Thankyou. This video really helped me take that first step.
Thanks for visiting!
Top hat, how are you doing now?
@@H4nDM4d323 how are you now??
Suffering from GAD, I put lorazepam prescribed until an anti depressant SSRI took effect, which took approx 1 year. Tried 4 SSRI and only the last, fluoxetine, worked fine (took 12 weeks to work!). I stopped with lorazepam two weeks later. No addictive effect.
Good for you...you're lucky not to be addicted to benzodiazepines

I see you mention this in the next slide
Hi Geri 👋🏽 😊
Yet I never worry but have an anxiety disorder?? What the hell, and I have been in benzo's for nearly 30 years to just have had them pulled. Now I am suffering the withdrawal symptoms...
There are different types of anxiety disorders, and worrying as part of a generalized anxiety disorder is just one example. It is not recommended that benzodiazepines be taken for the long term. 30 years is too long.
Wayne Woodward
How are you doing now? Would love an update. I hope things are better for you now!
Wayne Woodward..how and what are you doing about being off benzo's? Hope it went well, I am taping off xanax of 7 yrs. dr took me off without warning and having a hard time coping without them.
As a rule of thumb, how long should someone try psychotherapy before deciding whether to give medication a shot?
A couple of months- or go to medications if symptoms are severe.
I have general anxiety that leads to depression. I was on escitalopram(50mg) and it worked wonderfully. However, I gained 40 lbs so I tapered off. I tried fluoxetine and that sent me into depression after one pill. Now, I am taking 150mg of Sertraline. I have only been on 150mg for 3 weeks. I started out at 25mg 2.5 months ago. I also take Buspirone 7.5mg twice a day. The depression is gone but I still have a little anxiety such as the globus sensation. Should give the Sertraline more time or switch to a different SSRI?
If sertraline is working for your depression, then that is a treatment that is working, and should not be changed. Talk to your doctor about how to address your anxiety symptoms. Dr. Carlo is available for psychiatric consultations at his Seattle private practice: Carlo-Carandang.com
Last 4 years i have been struggling with all types of anxiety ocd paranoia etc. I tried natural supplements cbd oil medical marijuana etc. My relieve is coming from setraline or zoloft ssris. This is my third week on them. I dont mind if i have to take them for life time. Living a normal life its what matters the most

Medazepam, Afobazol, and dont masturbate or work to much,
were you able to find a solution for your problem , i seem to be suffering from the same. you replying and just letting me know will help me a lot
How are you now ? I’m having same problem
I to have general anxiety disorder it is crippling and lonely and very frightening to be battling with your thoughts over and over again until it makes you physically and mentally drained I feel stuck and no amount of re assurance I get I still panic that if I do start changing my thoughts into more positive one I then start to worry more as I'm losing control of the old thought
People haven't been very nice to me either as they think I'm a paranoid freak and that I go on and on and on if only they realise how upsetting and frightening to me then should hold back before they say anything and makes me feel like and out cast so that again will make my anxiety worse.i wish I didn't suffer this way I can't enjoy life I seem to just exist it's a losing battle and one I can't control god bless everyone who is suffering and please don't use negative comments to someone with gad because I bet you deep down in them they wish that they did suffer from this debilitating illness either it's not there fault and they are just as worthy as everyone else xx
Thanks for sharing
Do u get burning skin too
What you described is exactly my thought process too. Fear of loosing control of the previous frightening thought, fear becase youre letting a huge problem aside and its this is making it always lurking and worsening. Realizing that is devastating, you know that your in a trap and theres no way out.
I would like to add a piece to your beginning statement in the GAD - clinical course slid; or genetics

Ok sounds good Geri 👍🏽
Nothing works everytime. I've had diminished anxiety from taking benadryl. But theres a tradeoff in the form of restlessness and weight gain. I believe I'm better at treating myself than others are.

I wanted to ask my psychiatrist suggested mood stabilisers for treatment resistant anxiety disorders. Have you ever used them and if so, how effective are they on people with clinical anxiety such as GAD and panic disorder?
Here are the mood stabilizers for anxiety, and their specific indications: gabapentin: generalized anxiety disorder, social phobia, and panic disorder- anxietyboss.com/anxiety-treatments/prescription-drugs/#gabapentin; pregabalin: generalized anxiety disorder, social phobia, and panic disorder- anxietyboss.com/anxiety-treatments/prescription-drugs/#pregabalin; lamotrigine: PTSD- anxietyboss.com/anxiety-treatments/prescription-drugs/#lamotrigine

Then avoid caffeine.

Caffeine can’t cause GAD... But it can make it worse
is it normal to feel like it’s not even anxiety and instead something else like heart disease or cancer? i get so scared i’ve been misdiagnosed.

I've been taking 1.5 mg of bromazepam for my insomia and it helps with my anxiety to.. But im worried that i would be addicted to it. Sometimes i just take half a pill
You are justified in your concerns over the addiction potential to benzodiazepines. Go to your doctor and ask for another sedative that is not addictive.
Which are ones are not addictive?
My husband is suffering for severe anxiety. He has not worked since September. He has been in and out of outpatient support groups. He was recently discharged because the hospital does not know how to treat him. He tried to admit himself into our local ER last week, and they were confused how to help him. We have had every test under the sun. He has become hopeless, and has mentioned suicide. I don't understand why he can get the right help. He has been on Klonopin for more then 7 years. he can not get a correct dosage that makes him comfortable, or it has stopped working. He is not able to function without it. He will not take any other meds due to side effects and how he will react causing more anxiety. Plus he has had a DNA test to see what meds may take, and the list was very short. My thoughts are he needs to be somewhere where he can get of Klonopin and get on a more effective less addictive med, but where can we go to get help?
If his anxiety is severe, then I would recommend that he sees a psychiatrist. Klonopin (clonazepam) taken for more than a few weeks can lead to other problems, like benzodiazepine abuse and dependence.
Sheri Mason please do some meditation especially with Dr Hanson. They explain thenbrain and why one is feeling this way. Helped me sooo much,(thank god). I was going crazy
Meditation alone does not treat anxiety disorders.
It's probably the benzos that's causing the severe anxiety, if he has been on it 7 years then the med is doing absolutely nothing for him. Ssris are his best bet along with a safer panic drug like propranolol, I suggest your husband go to an Inpatient Rehab to start tapering off the benzo
Thanks for this video. The most troubling symptom I have is inability to fall asleep. When night comes flight or fight automatically kicks in and I’ll even twitch as I fall asleep. Have Xanax and Trazodone, but they don’t always work and sleep quality is very low. Any suggestions for more specific medications I can discuss with my doc? Would CBT be useful for this type of physical symptom? Need my sleep.
Consider a referral to a sleep doctor an get a sleep study.

Doctors dont ever give out benzos anymore. I've been to 4 different doctors in like a 6 week period tries busipar that was horrible I was on celexa before and got into bad habits and quit taking them. Now trying lexapro. On day 3 now I have eaten very little the past few days I've taken days off work the past few weeks which is VERY unlike me in 8 years I've only taken maybe 10 days off and I feel like I'm going nuts even though I know my mind is just tricking me. I wish this on absolutely no one. Physical pain is nothing to this I wish I could just have some physical pain instead it's absolutely horrid. Hopefully meds kick in much sooner than 8 weeks. Send some prayers my way to make it there without a mental breakdown

See a doctor. Get to a hospital any way you can and ask to be admitted to psych, if you can’t get to a doctor.
Sounds like you might have been medicating with marijuana. Many people do this, it is totally normal, but a medication and medical treatment as well as lifestyle changes (sleep schedule, yoga, etc) can be really helpful.

Yes it can- you can find out more about that here: anxietyboss.com/?s=Physical+symptoms+
Do you have to treat anxiety? Or can a person just let it go? Does it get worse if left untreated?
Here is the answer to your question: anxietyboss.com/what-happens-if-i-dont-treat-my-anxiety-can-it-get-worse/
I've had GAD since age 13. . I was on a whole bunch of different medications until age 21. Ativan, zoloft, xanax, lithium, risperidal etc. I did CBT for three years. Nothing worked and I was always a zombie with so many meds. I figured out the real reason behind my GAD is because of my childhood trauma and unstable upbringing. None of these will be a permanent or a complete fix. I am sure many agree with me that these methods barely even work. I am going to look into EMDR, DBT and others that are less well known and that seem much more efficient.
Good luck on your recovery with new treatment methods.
You make Benzos sound addictive, but at what dose a day? And why should a drug like an SNRi or SSRI be reconemnded before if it makes symtoms worse and person may have to wait 2 months of suffering before finding out if it works. Why are only those with mental suffering expected to live like this? Would you tell a heart patient you may not die, but this drug may give you more crushing heart pain for.few.months before it works.
Because benzodiazepines are addictive when taken for longer than a few weeks.

I think i have gad. I have all the symptomes. I started zoloft 2 weeks ago, and take 50 mg seroquel. However this is not helping. I have rapit hearbits almost all the time, its driving me crazy. The only solution i can think of is to up the doze of seroquel. My anxiety is so bad that i feel paralyzed. Since ive only taken zoloft, 50mg for two weeks its probably to early to see if it will help. Thanks for a great video.

Works in the short term, if you don't eventually develop alcohol addiction over the long term.
I sometimes feel like I can’t catch my breath out of nowhere and rarely sometimes my mind thinks I’m gonna pass out and I start feeling lightheaded. I get tingling and muscle twitching on the side of my head and sometimes my top lip goes numb. Also sometimes feel like I’m off balance and feeling fatigue. I’ve been checked numerous times by different doctors and they say I have anxiety. Crazy how anxiety can feel so real. This all started when I became a dad. Any help to get rid of this kind of anxiety? Thank you...
Start by seeing a psychologist for an evaluation. In the meantime, you can get self-help from the anxietyboss.com website. Good luck.
can it make your chest hurt for 6 days. My ekg and vitals were good
It is possible for anxiety to cause physical symptoms, including chest pain, although it is important to note that chest pain can also be a symptom of other, more serious conditions. If you are experiencing chest pain that lasts for more than a few minutes or is accompanied by other concerning symptoms such as shortness of breath, nausea, or dizziness, it is important to seek medical attention right away as these could be signs of a more serious problem such as a heart attack.
In general, anxiety can cause a range of physical symptoms including:
Chest pain or discomfort
Rapid heartbeat
Shortness of breath or difficulty breathing
Dizziness or lightheadedness
Nausea or stomach pain
Muscle tension or tremors
Sweating
Headaches
Fatigue
If you are experiencing chest pain that is not relieved by rest and that lasts for more than a few minutes, or if you have any other concerning symptoms, it is important to seek medical attention right away.

Does Seroquel increases dopamine in the brain ?
It blocks dopamine receptors, so the answer is no.
But it still raises mood and serotonin ... I quote
Carlo Carandang: "Seroquel increases serotonin, just like Paroxetine."
Ya- so? Seroquel is a dopamine antagonist, and decreases dopaminergic tone downstream, whereas Seroquel increases serotonergic tone downstream. Your logic needs to be checked...the doctor has spoken...Dr. Carlo out.

So once you got gad that's it, its just how your brain are wired and you dont can do to much to help with it? No real recovery from this? I have gad in My early 30's. I can't understand if something can come as disorder can not be put back in order? Or we are simply born like this?
Generalized anxiety disorder (GAD) is a condition that can affect your life in a significant way. While it is true that the condition is often thought to be related to the way your brain is wired, that does not mean that recovery is not possible. There are many effective treatments for GAD, including therapy, medication, and lifestyle changes, that can help people manage their symptoms and improve their quality of life.
It's also important to note that the causes of GAD are complex and can involve a combination of genetic, environmental, and life experiences factors. So, it's not simply a matter of being "born this way."
It's important to seek professional help if you are struggling with GAD or any other mental health condition. A mental health professional can help you understand your condition, develop a treatment plan, and provide support as you work towards recovery. With the right treatment and support, it is possible to make significant progress in managing GAD and improving your overall wellbeing.

Escitilaprom has so many side effects i fear to use this drug.Its my first AD
Actually, of all the SSRIs, escitalopram has the least side effects.
Did you ever take it? I've been on it for about a month and a half, and it's made such a huge difference in my life (luckily no side effects). I was scared to even pick up the prescription and put it off for a week, but I'm so glad I started taking it.

Best medication for Panic attacks ?
SSRIs
Edvard Bsn Xanax
Sorry, but that is not the answer.
Ssri like escitalopram. Xanax may be working first but it does nothing in few week. Escitalopram seems not working at the beginning but in the long run it changes you in a positive thinking person. Hard to quit though. Also lethal if overdose.
Edvard Bsn
Pregabalin / Lyrica

@@AnxietyBoss thanks! It make sense.
Unfortunately, obtaining medication can be much cheaper.
Then you are missing out on the most important part of treatment that is addressing the cause and not just treating symptoms.
Best medication for GAD ?
SSRIs are the best, starting with Zoloft and Paxil (Prozac, not so much). Buspar would be the best, but only if it truly works for GAD for the individual, as Buspar has virtually no side effects.
I would say benzodiazepines!!
Sorry, that is not the answer.

It's prescribed for Generalized Anxiety Disorder. For some people, this medication works, and it does not have many side effects. For many others, it does not work, but at least it does not have side effects.
